  1. Not sure how some of these high school programs get a coach. Who would want to deal with aggravation and parent involvement?
  2. It doesn't matter if they helped or not. You didn't understand my point though. Did they not take spots from Pgh area kids b/c they wanted to win? How is that helping the local kids? And who was basically in charge of that team? That's right. DM. Are the developing talent or are they just getting the top kids? You would think that with all of their full time "skills" coaches, districts at their own rink, playing against the easy Mid Am district, they would have easily walked to nationals. It's not hard to win when you get the top pick of talent from the area and the top "skills" coaches. Or wait, it must have been for the 14s and 15s.
  3. No doubt the 2003 birth year was one of the most talented birth years in Pittsburgh hockey history. But let's not forget that the PPE started recruiting kids from out of town in order to get them that national championship. I'm not hating, but that's what happened. Bringing players in from Chicago and other areas across the country while taking spots from kids locally. Not sure how that's great for local players. As far as the PPE goes and their "development", the 14s and 15s couldn't even get out of one of the easiest districts to qualify from. 14s lost to the 40th ranked team and 15s lost as well to an inferior team. But at least the 16s won it all! Not to mention the dumpster that was the 18s this season.
