    PAHL is a mess. Their version to crown a “playoff champ” is 2 semifinal games then a final. So Bush played 2 games. Beat Thomas because the refs disallowed 2 goals by Thomas that should have been goals (it’s on Live Barn) and beat beat SHAHA because SHAHA put the puck in their own net. So a PAHL playoff champ is kind of a joke in this case. The best team by far in PAHL was Thomas. The records and stats were already posted. 

     

    Fir these boys to miss out on playing Nationals since it was cancelled is a shame. 

    Sour grapes sounds to me. Someone won the Pahl championship & got the banner. someone also won the extended Pahl playoffs and got a invite to nationals. Pretty simple.

    My post is factual! That team never had a full roster!! They have two kids from Lawrence county who float in and out, they added my friends kids for half price who moved to Pitt for excel / nc in September. They posted on this website they were looking for kids to “round out” their teams. One of their d left for the monarchs in September. Per usual, we get to the bottom of things, you are involved with the program trying to do pr. As @The King says, follow the money and you will figure things out!

    PAHL playoffs was one or two games. That’s it. 
    MidAms was 4 games. The #1 team was 4-0 and the #2 team was 2-2. Plus Look at the overall records and rankings. #1 team was much better and probably better than the “AAA” team. 
     

    I feel bad for the boys that the Nationals were just cancelled. Getting out of hand with all these cancellations. 

    Again, glorified Pahl playoffs.

    Didn't the Preds 1st AA team beat the Preds 2nd AA team and end up going 4-0 and winning Mid-Ams and now going to California for Nationals? I don't know about you, but I definitely think winning Mid-Ams is a lot more important then winning PAHL playoffs. 

    It was the same thing as Pahl playoffs just with the icemen added in.

    Are you an idiot?  Your post was not factual. End of story. At no point did I ever say one team wasn't looking for kids during the season. You said all season 03 &04. That is not factual. You are a complete idiot.

    Again. I'm not sure how you are missing that you are spouting fake news. 03 & 04 teams would be defined as 16u and 15uo. Both teams were not looking for kids nor did both teams only have 13 skaters. Educate yourself my friend. Or live in the bubble of the Excel delusion. Either way, I'm just glad I don't know you. 

    In your answer below, now you say the 16a did ? Which is it ? The icemen post looking for kids for teams was linked a few posts back.

    That is not factual. It is people like you, who make this board a joke.  Plain and simple - that statement above is NOT A FACT and inaccurate. Now I am 100% sure to take anything you type as pretty much crap. 

    Look I know two kids on the 16u iceman, one is from excel. They have 13 skaters and constantly were bringing different kids in to play tournaments.

    Well I think you missed the entire part about commitment...that being said, do I think it should be the whole season? Not my call.

    But your argument is not really a solid one...If you commit to a team, you in turn took a spot away from another kid. If you then quit that commitment, you start the chain reaction that causes the pro-rated fees if you join during the season. I know of no teams who pro-rate prior to hitting the ice (if you do, I guess you have done it before).  I don't see what they did as a black eye, I see it as a positive...again, back to teaching our kids what commitment means and that their are consequences. 

    What you are missing - programs like the icemen never have a full team to begin with. Just this season the 04 & 03 teams had plenty of spots open, I believe they even posted on this message board looking for “players to round out our teams”.

    I may get bashed for this, but...what are we teaching our kids if we show it is OK to commit to a team, 15+ other individuals, and then quit for what you think may be the next best thing, leaving your team of 15+ others, hence hurting those 15+ others...with no consequences? If teams just let everyone quit with no consequences hockey in Western PA would be more of a mess than it already is.

    I like that it's teaching our kids responsibility, respect, and everything else you all complain about them not having on this board.

    Hockey and sports in general is not just about playing, it's also about molding our kids into ones who can contribute to society in a positive way for the future....

    But let's all go back to talking about how we (not even our kids) were all wronged and how our kid is the next Crosby. 

    Most teams pro rate the season when they add kids, why should it be different if a kid leaves ? It’s just another black eye on those icemen guys and why their program will be dead soon. The kid I know they sued went to ppe before the team even started practice

    end of year for the 04s. awful year. Thousands of dollars.  a few kids quit with a few weeks left. parents have zero communication with the coach. one goalie was blamed for losses. great results. 

    How many will they try to sue this year is the big question. Will it top last year ?

    Anyone that knows Hockey1-RS knows he a gutless snake that has to use this message board to lap up the sack of DM, what a loser

    Lol OSU sucks - I see what you did there. I’m pretty sure it’s the mom but I guess it could be the dad or both. They along with DM managed to cover up the pot scandal from the summer pretty quick.  Remember that topic got deleted here.

    None of what you said is true!  Especially about the Dad's kid who plays in the OHL right now, you are clueless!!  USHL "futures" LMAO!!! whoohoo!! FUTURES!!!!

    Come back in August when half of the team doesn't go to NC and makes every single practice by going to cyber school or any other high school!!

    So you have no argument, no facts.  I’m very good friends the parent. He worked with my oldest when he was younger. He’s a great skills coach, this the reason his son made it to ohl, his dad is better than what excel had to offer. The entire story is true everyone In the ppe program knows it yet here you are denying it. Guess you didn’t get a chance to talk to DM yet to put a longer reply together. you ignored every question, fact & argument I made above mom. It’s not peewee anymore, your kid fell behind everyone but you are still drinking dm’s kool aid thinking you can still get your kid somewhere. He won’t, he’s dropped off every year the past 2 seasons. He would be in major junior this season if he really had it, like the others. 

  14. Someone just sent me the live barn video of that kid starting a fight. I don’t even understand why, it was the predators last game, the game was over. Kid just tosses his gloves off and tries to pull the jersey over the Sylvannia players head and starts swinging. I understand the heat of battle, fights do happen sometimes. This kid is on strike 10 it sounds like. Nobody wants him on a team. No wonder why it’s rumored the top players on this predators team are trying to goto esmark. I can tell you from experience esmark will not put up with 2 minute shifts, making trouble, smoking pot, Thinking you are a super star or that stupid stretch pass it looks like the predators were trying to play. If I’m understanding correctly predators currently are the cheapest of the “tier 1” teams. These parents that have been at the predators will be in for a big surprise when the season with travel comes in around 12k+ I’m going to go out on a limb and say esmark won’t take any of them anyway and they will all be back at ice castle. Dave does a good job weeding out egos and problem parents / players for that program, they also like to keep their own, better the devil you known.

    Mom your nose is so far up his a$$ it’s ridiculous, you must be giving him reports that you are defending him in The public. Hockey is worse off with that megalomaniac involved. All these great community things would have still happened under the pro team and all the nhl programs. 
     

    he hasn’t helped build anything, all he did was use his influence, money and power to surround his son with the best players at his BY along with a coach who’s won and was beating his ass at his own game. 
     

    lets talk about the 03 dad who’s kid currently plays in the ohl. Last year when the dad questioned dm on excel being a conflict of interest the dad was banned from the rink. They tried to ban him from away games with a threat to him against his youngest in the program. DM tried to make a example of him to the other parents such as you, get in line and don’t Question anything. I personally know this parent along with all the details to the story. So please defend DM here. This man really did give back unlike DM. This man would ise the instructor icetime at Baierl and some of the excel 03 kids would come work for free with him. That was DM biggest problem with the man, kids were skipping excel Once a week to get BETTER instruction for free in a smaller group. 
     

    keep riding DM, it’s getting your kid nowhere. My 99 was draft in the ushl futures draft, jealous mom ? Though he never made it to the ushl, I know how much it hurts you just to read that. 
     

    tell me what kid going to public school can make a practice that starts at 1:50 ? NONE. 

    Hey mom, is dm writing your reply ?
