If the Faux NHL teams like the Penguins would play in the AHL the.AHL would be more competitive.

Wow Big Guy, suddenly they remind you of a Hall of Famer led NHL team? Does this mean you are done complaining about the goalie finally? You blame the coaches, blame the goalie. How about blaming your boy that hasn't scored a meaningful goal all year and choked in the SO against Mars when given the chance? Maybe put him in net and ride him to the state title!

A month ago QV had the consensus best team, best goalie, best coach, but yet another year with nothing to show for it. Same old story, paper champs. When are we gonna quit living in the past. Reminds me of the Steelers.

Wow! There is a lot to unpack in that message. Everything about the coaching as well as your (parent) expectations smells like a dumpster fire! Shortening the bench, running systems, PP, PK, hiding weak players on certain lines, at the Squirt A level? Really?! Are we trying to give the players (All the players) a chance to get better or are we collecting trophies? Cause I'll let you in on a little secret, If you don't win the Squirt B Minor Black My Hockey Ratings Steel City Cup trophy this weekend, don't worry they will be awarding it again two weeks from now. You have plenty of time to get a whole shelf full of them. Dunno if things are better anywhere else, but you really should consider getting the heck out of that situation!

I smell a lawsuit! Who did they have in net for that kiski game?? Sorry, too soon?

I think Montour is the most likely lower seed to advance. But there are usually surprises so I guess that's why they play the games.

See the earlier announcement! I'm afraid you don't have ol' Pa Hockey to kick around anymore! I am concerned about how will we find out who the thirty best local players are now? (Excluding those playing Junior, NDTP, Pens Elite, or moved away for other AAA teams, or Prep School, or playing for a Laurel Mountain team, or a Co-op PIHL team or those that just chose not to play for their high school team)

Hockey already has your Elan Musk! It's Murry Gunty and Blackbear. They get rid of all the "wasteful spending" like community programs, reduce competition, limit options, and then have their corporate friends run it "efficiently" (profitable)

PA hockey has a plan. Or maybe concepts of a plan?

Imma let ya finish, but Drotos and Barefoot are having the best seasons of all time!

Here's the deal, I think we will all agree he's the best there is. Plain and simple. He wakes up in the morning and pisses excellence. I expect this is finally the year he will hoist the 6ft 5 son of a lineman and the rest of this team mates upon his back and carry them on to penguin cup glory.

First of all I said "very few exceptions" so that 09 you mention would be one exception, and you say 29th ranked? That's essentially top 25, so really isn't much of an outlier. Also I didn't say some kid on an 80th ranked team isn't as talented as some kid on a top 25 team. I'm not arguing that point. There are plenty of kids on top 25 teams that aren't going anywhere either just like the kid on the 80th ranked team. If you want to argue with me, then find me some data disputing what I said, With very few exceptions, Pro, D1 college and Tier1 Junior players come from organizations in the Top 25 like Caesars, SSM, Mount, Mission, Gulls, Mid Fairfield, and Minnesota HS and NE prep. And I'm talking Bantam and Midget ages, not a kid that played squirts for the Amherst Knights. It's just a fact, the best players find their way onto these top teams. And these are the teams that scouts pay attention to. You don't have to like the system, but that's just how it is right now.

By the time you are playing 14U or 16U if you aren't playing for a top 25 ranked AAA team, then you are just playing for fun. Just look back in the last 5 years, look at the CHL and USHL drafts and junior team rosters, with VERY few exception the players moving on came from Minnesota High schools, New England prep schools, or top 25 US and Canadian AAA programs. Dig even deeper and it's the same for D1 players and NHL players. Go ahead and point to Tomko, but that SHAHA team was in the top 25. So if someone wants to play for the 3rd best Pittsburgh team, the 100th ranked AAA team in the country, ok, just know you are playing for fun. And if you are playing for fun, then of course you shouldn't pay for Excel and go to their school. If you're playing for something more, then unfortunately the "other option" is leaving the area. Boy I can't wait until the Hornets website is complete!

"Good news Sergey, some guy named Vlad called, he said you were drafted. But he said he was going to use you on the front line, not the top line, what do you think he meant by that?"

Those goalies don't seem to be listed as part of the All-Star game but maybe I'm missing something.

I'm not sure either.

Especially when the term is generally understood to be used in the context of racial inequities, and to a lesser extent and more recently sexual orientation. So is he saying that too many non-white and gay athletes made the All-Star Game? That would be a bold accusation.

I got Dibs on him for my beer League team next season.

A few weeks is an appropriate suspension? How about criminal charges for underage drinking?
