  1. Does anyone else know anything about this? In the Post-Gazette today, it says that Robert Morris is seeking "$10 million to for construction of a new 100,000-square-foot hockey facility with two sheets of ice, seating for 2,500 fans, at least four team locker rooms, concession stands, restrooms, office space for the college’s hockey programs, and additional parking." https://www.post-gazette.com/business/development/2024/02/24/oakland-walnut-capital-mckee-place-state-redevelopment-assistance-capital-grants/stories/202402240046 I also found this which visually suggests it could tie into the current facility - perhaps replacing the two outdoor sheets of ice: https://architizer.com/projects/robert-morris-university-hockey-arena-concept/
  2. I have heard rumors that a new ice rink has been permitted just off of 576 near the airport. Is there truth to this?
  3. I agree with Murry Gunty that emphasizing covering the “spread” and not winning is the wrong motivator. Covering the spread shifts the focus away from sound team defense and team play. There should be nothing wrong with beating a 'lesser' team 3-0. We all know that a hot goalie can change the dynamics of a game. Teams also might play the team down the road rather than travel to who knows where for the sake of their MHR. A final thought, and I really haven't thought this though, but can you imagine what the NHL or NCAA would be like if they were based on MHR and not team standings?
  4. As of Sunday, lights were still off in 2nd rink as the concrete cures. From what I have heard, there will be eight locker rooms in hallway, as the rental shop is going to move. UPMC is taking over gym and I have heard they might be taking over space under the gym. As for space under Bubbas, Shane Clifford is there now. The Rebellion have a space for a large team meeting room and Peters Township is getting their own locker room (although I am not quite sure where that is going). Either way, exciting times for Printscape and the Rebellion.
  5. Out of curiosity, what are the base season fees for the Vengeance and Esmark Stars?
  6. Brian (bb2j3z) designs the social media and does a great job :)
  7. The Rebellion 14U girls team was part of the TGHF last year. The 2009BY team is now affiliated with the AHF. I have two kids playing with the Rebellion. Great organization.
  8. Does anyone know what happened to the 07 SHAHA AAA team? They were listed on the initial tryout listing for SHAHA, but then are now not listed on the tryout listing.
  9. The '06 SHAHA AAA team beat Little Caesars last weekend and have gone 2-1 against the Pens Elite team. Both they and the '08 AAA SHAHA team are legit.
  10. That's what he said. AAA Rebllion teams. There is limited ice in the South Hills. AAA teams are always searching for more ice. And yes, it would be akin to the '08 AAA Lebo team.
  11. My intent was not to start a North vs South discussion. It was to point out the volume of hockey played in the South Hills... But since you started it... 1) Lemiuex is not used by a PAHL team. 2) Alpha is 22 miles from Baierl. Do people in Harmar even consider themselves in the North Hills? 3) All four rinks in the South Hills are within 12 miles, with three of them very close to each other. 4) I like the North Hills and the South Hills and Pittsburgh in general...
  12. And he has spent that time working on the project. He has the attitude of, "If I build it, they will come."
  13. The man is an acquaintance of mine. He obviously hasn't gone full blown public with the details. But he doesn't shy away from talking about it with friends. I will ask him if it is ok to share the details. Think big.
