2021 Keystone Games
sadday4hockey replied to Paul Baxter's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
They should add copper or aluminum so everyone gets a medal. It's shameful that one team gets excluded like that!! -

RMU cutting hockey programs
sadday4hockey replied to Bob Loblaw's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
So this would now become a "school team" which really isn't recognized/acknowledged by the school itself. Sounds a LOT like WPA High School hockey. Only a lot more expensive. -

And always at no risk to them. It's always someone else's money at risk. -

Can't wait to see this play out and how much is time is allotted for the Diversity initiative compared to how much is used for profitable programs. -
North Pitt is typically strapped for ice aren't they? 14U seems odd as they normally have more than enough for 4 teams or more but in recent years they seem to be shying away from more than one team at 18's and 2 at 16U. I also believe that the NA Coaching staff of Toe Blake, Scotty Bowman and Al Arbour put pressure on the players to not play amateur hockey.

So, let's look at this from the point of view of their description of themselves as best players, best coaches and best facility and how this has played out. The 2006 players were the first group to come out of 8U and into the 2 team model at PPE. So, in year 1 there would have been 30 skaters and 4 goalies that had the benefit of "the best of the best". I think what remains is 1 goalie and 3 skaters (maybe 4), so the question is what happened? If they had all the best players being coached by the best coaches in the best facility for 6 seasons in the prime development years, why did so many of those players not develop to the point of a higher retention rate?

So is it true that in 22-23 the Rebellion will also be fielding Tier 1 teams? That seems to be the prevailing rumor regarding the wishes of the new management.

Pahl’s Eastern programs
sadday4hockey replied to BeaverFalls's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
They have teams playing in both PAHL and WNYAHL. I think each team gets to choose their own preference year by year as to which one they play in. -

To stay relevant, you would have had to actually have been relevant. Other than Hockey, I don't think any of their other sports can be considered relevant.
