  1. 1st at 14U and 16U Results
  2. Friends were told to expect a $1,500 increase in fees for next year at the 12U level.
  3. They play AAU full ice mites as a separate thing run by some dads. There are several full ice mite teams in the area. Across the state in the AHF there’s full on divisions for it. It’s everywhere now. My son played full ice his last year in mites (in additional to PAHL) and it was the best thing we could have done honestly. I wish USA hockey would introduce it halfway through the season for red level final year mites. Most of those kids have been playing cross or half ice for 4 years at that point. Then they get zero time to adjust before first year squirt tryouts.
  4. Traveling to Buffalo to play against 2 other PAHL teams is the worst. Hate when that happens. Judging from their MHR org page, none of their teams look “elite” so you guys will be fine. Probably an independent org started by a group of jaded parents when their kids didn’t make the team they wanted. GH tournaments are usually ran very well and divisions are pretty even.
  5. The quality of that particular clip looks 10x better than LiveBarn in my opinion. You can actually see the names and numbers. Would likely be even clearer at rinks without the netting. It’s on par with the YouTube streamed games filmed from the stands (presumably on iPhones) that some teams do. Wish it was on all the time though. I still don’t understand how they will be able to activate it when it’s a PAHL or PIHL game.
  6. What tournament?
  7. $50 a season? Hell I’d gladly pay $50 a month if the quality is better than LiveBarn. LiveBarn camera quality is atrocious and until now they have had a monopoly on the market. Not saying BBTV is the best thing to happen but I don’t hate it, IF the quality is significantly better. I am however, very appreciative of the guys who stream the games for my kids teams. 1080p live on youtube is awesome when I can’t be there in person.
  8. @aaaahockey that’s an excellent point. I’m sure the youth hockey numbers have skyrocketed in places like Vegas and Florida due to recent NHL success. I believe most of the orgs in the south hills saw similar tryout numbers as years past at the 12U and 10U ages.
  9. I haven’t noticed that significant of a drop in number of teams at those age groups. I have noticed a pretty substantial lack of goalies though.
  10. Please use the stickied thread for these types of posts.
  11. Includes uniforms, independent games and tournament fees too though so actually not too bad considering most others are around $3k with uniforms, independent games and tournaments all being extra.
  12. Reading comprehension must not be your thing. Jake is the 09 coach this year (15O) Nick has the 10’s (14u) and the 12’s (12u) Ty has his favorites the 11’s (13u). He had the 09’s as well up until this year.
