Having seen three of the top AA teams play more than once.  Franklin Regional, Penn Trafford and Armstrong.  Penn Trafford has the best goaltending.  Franklin Regional has a couple more dynamic players on roster, but all three teams are solid with some highend talent.  Going to be fun to watch!  

I for one appreciate some of the more recent posts to this thread.  I have multiple kids that have played from mites to midget.  They have played in PAHL programs, minor B, AA and AAA at bantam and midget.  I for one appreciate all the options there are for kids to play in Pittsburgh at whatever level they can compete at.  I don’t see any of this as a money grab.  I see the market responding to a need.  I see parents supporting player’s passion to improve.  I see coaches who enjoy teaching the game.  All the AAA teams popping up in the area shows the popularity of hockey.   Statements like money grab is a narrow view of the hockey landscape here in pittsburgh.  

Rumor I heard is that there was.  IDK  I believe some 04 Pens Black and 04 Vengence if not making Pens Gold are heading to Esmark.
