Are you hoping it goes well or do you want it to fail?

I wish they would investigate why you are such a gigantic douche-nozzle.

I have to thank you my man. It's because of jerkoffs like you that this election is going to be a landslide. The actions and words of people like you have created so many silent Trump supporters that your head is going spin like Linda Blair's in the Exorcist. #4MOREYEARS

Yes, they have to appease the paying customers with games somewhere.

Correct. The initial rankings just came out and the 15U team is already eliminated from contention to qualify for Districts. There's always next year.

But they could be Tier 2 (my God, the horror) and play some AAA teams and yet still have the opportunity to compete to attend Nationals. Classifying Tier 1 just makes zero sense.

Yes, they have. People with common sense. Which right off the bat, eliminates the majority of politicians.

So the Icemen 18U team is a "AAA" team that so far is 3-4 against nothing but AA opponents. Is there any logical explanation as to WHY they do this? By 18U, shouldn't people realize where this is all going? Shouldn't the need for the extra A have gone away by now?

You're a douche.

You know, there are a lot of a-holes on here but there are also a lot of people who can see through a post like this and if you actually think anyone on here believes that you are a PAHL parent that carries this much disdain for that team.................... well, I'm afraid that I've got some bad news for you.

I mean I'm just the messenger............. In the good old days, before a certain person had to make a members only playground for his kid, the Hornets used to play a majority of their "home games" in Ohio through an arrangement with the Barons. But that was before making money on youth hockey became the biggest racket in Pittsburgh.

Major update!!! They can start playing AWAY games in October.

I read about a couple of players that did donate their checks but as usual, you don't hear it from them. They're content with quietly doing something constructive. The ones that you do always hear from are always the ones that never put their money where their mouth is. So again, they should STFU.

Typical liberal speak by them. Yet when it came down to dollars and not sense, still after all these years and taxpayer dollars they have been unable to come up with a plan for what to do with the old Mellon Arena site. Why? Because it's about the $$$$$$$$$$ and not social justice. They want social change? Then they should do exactly what the people of the lower Hill District want them to do and not what's best for their wallets. Otherwise, they should STFU.

Probably has two friends. The Wolf and the good Dr. Levine.

I would not forget about Baierl and NP's neighbor down the street, they won't let any teams play so I would bet their voice echoed quite loudly at Mr. Paul Day's house.

I'd like to pose this question, "has anyone on this forum EVER received a penny from the USA hockey insurance program?". Better yet, does anyone even know anyone or heard of anyone that has?" I know plenty of people whom have had injuries and your personal insurance is the first thing that gets billed. Then if there is anything left to pay, I believe that it can be submitted to this "insurance policy".

Okay, but I'll say it again, let me know when they actually play a game.

Anomaly, that truly is a perfectly written assessment and certainly NOT an anomaly in experience I'm sure. And it's certainly not limited to the 2nd teams.

Okay, I'll take the bait. You let me know the first time that you hear of any of their teams actually playing a game under the PPE name. Not scheduling a game, but actually playing a game.

Peter the Puck, you suck. You have to be the world's biggest downer ever.

There are soft whispers coming out of the UPMC Center that the PPE teams will not be allowed to play any games in the near future and possibly much longer. Anyone have any direct knowledge of this as my information isn't first hand knowledge?

I believe they call that "creeping around"

Peter, can you please close your account?

The reality is that if you want to fork over the money to join a league, no league will turn you down. This is case in point #1.
