100% PAHL would be just as good as the CSDHL. Top 25 or so teams are AAA, the rest are high level AA teams with a few AAA players.

With all the movement (and I'm sure more to come), what are everyone's rankings going into the season at 09 AA with some teams really improving? Last year's Myhockey rankings at 09 #1 MidState 37-9-6 #2 PHA 40-15-10 #3 Steel City 43-19-2 #4 Allegheny 33-19-5 #5 Viper Stars 33-13-1 #6 North Pitt 22-15-3 #7 Arctic Foxes 19-24-6 #8 South Pitt 20-27-10 #9 Preds 14-29-4 I've only seen PHA and they looked like a juggernaut when I watched them, had some holes but I'm sure they'll pick up some guys after such a successful season. Going off what the other people have said in this thread for new teams to watch. I'll go with: #1 PHA, #2 Steel City, #3 North Pitt, #4 MidState, #5 Allegheny, #6 South Pitt Probably very wrong, but let's hear what everyone else thinks!

Yeah the progression plan on their website is National Bound Tier 2 this upcoming season, then THF Tier 1 the following season as a 15U AAA team.

This 09 Icemen team is legit and I agree they could be National Championship contenders. Anyone know if they picked up some Esmark fallouts/other AAA talent? The core they already had was very talented and if they added anyone else I don’t see anyone stopping them at States.
