    Just heard the league fired jaison and there are apparently new owners rebranding the team to make it legit. 

    Should be exciting if it is marketed the right way and not the way the league ended last season.

    heard from a buddy that the new ownership is the guy that was their HC. and few of his friends that are well plugged into the hockey community.. But of course like everything is all he say she say until it officially comes to light

    He is doing something right, plucking hockey players off the front lines in Kharkiv and bring them to New Kensington!

    Yes those tenders are great for those guys, but their t1 league is tied to the Nahl, so teams have to invite a number of players. I'd be curious how many make a team, I don't know the answer.

    tenders are nothing more the a invite to main camp and that team owns your rights for the season coming up. 90 percent of them dot make the tendered nahl team anyways they end up in ncdc or na3 or usphl

    Unfortunately, the players would have all quit if they had to continue playing for the old coach. 
    We were left with very little choices on who to pick. Nobody was really lining up to coach this team or be involved in the league in its first year. Can’t blame anyone for that.
    Only choice we had was a players father. 

     

    Like I said. The league continued to look like a joke and guys were embarrassed to be a part of a league who continued to have games cancelled and teams drop out. What’s the point of playing these games when nobody bothered to send a decent squad to us. 

    then maybe first off should not have fired the first coach, and once that happened. Pgh should have just folded then.

    Team folded due to player issues. Guys no longer wanted to play road games. The schedule was terrible. Guys no longer wanted to keep the commitment they signed up for.  Etc.

    Players paid $350 total for the season. That covered jerseys, practice slots, our travel, and hotels. 

    Players received $500 for every sponsor sold

    The last coach was fired due to the players no longer wanting to play for him. Had nothing to do with the owner.


     

    sounds like the player didn't care for the daddy coach either if the team folded due to player commitment ONLY

    The whole point about the Preds AA PAHL team being unquestionably better than their AAA team speaks volumes about their program as a whole. Not to mention that it indicates that the players and family’s “in the know” understand the price points and how the return on investment (or lack thereof) is a vacuum of spent money for nothing of significance in return.

    When the 18U AA team is receiving consideration and attention from higher level scouts, but their AAA team is not…well, there’s that “situation” and whatever label we would want to call it.

    higher level scouts for u18aa team? lol this isn't Chicago.  highest level even looking would be a pay to play........

    that coach is a liar and not a good human being.  Parents let their kids play for him the are not good parent. He calls kids names that their worst enemies wouldn’t call them.  Basically a bully to kids. Parents are afraid to say anything cause he guarantees he is going to get them to juniors.   That guy shouldn’t be aloud to coach.  Ask all the refs and other teams.  That guy is destroying Esmark’s rep.    While you have yuri which is an awesome coach and really knows hockey.   If you pay for privates with that coach you will play.  It’s a business.   Also tells lies that Esmark 2011 has #1 forward in pa.   Already getting recruited for college at 12.   Also smokes vapes on benches.    Quits on kids like a baby.  Not a man at all. 

    which coach is this?

    One thing is clear, Alex Thomas was correct choice for player of year.   The other 5 are debatable.  

    I think less weight needs to be given to assists.  If you are at all familiar with high school hockey then I don't need to explain why. 

    na Jake is a heck of a player himself.. the CV and SF onees though for sure deff shouldn't be on but is what is

    Read between the lines people. Jaison Kelly has to be the worst human that resides in Pittsburgh. He’s a con artist and a flat out loser . A fuckup. Until his hands are still on this River Monsters, I’m staying away. Praying he goes to jail on his arraignment that’s in April for fraud.

    the whole league is a joke tbh.... how many name changes this season alone.  3 already....

    Now that midams are over, any surprises?  Looks like pens crushed it at every level except 18U where Culver won.  How about Tier 2?  

    we all know they will get the at large bid like they always do then get tail handed to them at natty like normal
