Hoser

That REALLY sucks for Preds. IMHO there should be a playoff for any teams within 1 rating point for the final spots. 0.02 rating points to eliminate the Preds players and coaches from a shot at districts and national championship??? Reflects VERY poorly upon the directors of USAH Mid-Am district who set up such a scenario.

correction - U14 is bantam not midget...

Below is a summary of https://www.myhockeyrankings.com/ for the USA hockey mid-am district. The top 6 teams in each division are eligible to participate in mid-am district playdowns in March 2019 to determine the district representative to the Tier 1 USA hockey national tournament in April 2019. Presently, the U18 division appears wide-open with any of the teams listed could make a run over the next 3 months for the district banner. Pittsburgh Penguins Elite appear to have a tight grip on each division below midget major. 2018-19 USA Mid-Am District Midget 18U Tier 1 Rankings Team Record Rating 1 Culver Academies Prep 10-6-0 97.67 2 Pittsburgh Esmark Stars 18U AAA 28-9-1 96.83 3 Gilmour Academy Prep 21-9-2 96.83 4 Pittsburgh Penguins Elite 18U AAA 19-14-0 96.36 5 Ohio Blue Jackets 18U AAA 10-20-0 95.19 6 Cleveland Barons 18U AAA 11-18-0 94.69 7 Pittsburgh Predators 18U AAA 16-10-3 94.63 2018-19 USA Mid-Am District Midget 16U Tier 1 Rankings 1 Pittsburgh Penguins Elite 16U AAA 26-9-0 97.47 2 Pittsburgh Esmark Stars 16U AAA 19-14-2 94.01 3 Ohio Blue Jackets 16U AAA 12-19-1 93.92 4 Culver Academies 16U AAA 7-6-2 93.52 5 Cleveland Barons 16U AAA 7-23-0 92.72 6 Indianapolis Racers 16U AAA 13-14-3 92.26 7 Pittsburgh (PHA) Icemen 16U AAA 14-15-5 92.13 2018-19 USA Mid-Am District Midget 15U Tier 1 Rankings 1 Pittsburgh Penguins Elite 15U AAA 29-9-0 95.01 2 Sylvania North Stars 15U AAA 30-12-4 92.12 3 Indy Jr Fuel 15U AAA 17-11-3 91.98 4 Pittsburgh Predators 15U AAA 19-9-4 91.49 5 Pittsburgh Esmark Stars 15U AAA 19-12-2 91.12 6 Ohio Blue Jackets 15U AAA 9-20-1 90.89 7 Pittsburgh (PHA) Icemen 15U AAA 15-15-4 89.28 8 Cleveland Barons 15U AAA 8-22-1 88.67 2018-19 USA Mid-Am District Midget 14U Tier 1 Rankings 1 Pittsburgh Penguins Elite 04 AAA 21-16-2 98.27 2 Ohio Blue Jackets 04 AAA 18-7-7 96.13 3 Pittsburgh Penguins Elite (Black) 04 AAA 18-15-3 93.44 4 Indy Jr Fuel 04 AAA 5-16-4 93.01 5 Pittsburgh Vengeance 04 AAA 18-18-4 92.77 6 Cleveland Barons 04 AAA 10-21-3 92.12
