go back and really dig. yes those kids get a tender but they never make the NAHL teams that tender them. 98 percent of them are either ACHA NCDC or Premier NOT NAHL. the last Esmark kid to go would be either the goalie thats in Alaska or the kid that went to johnstown and is now playing NCAA D1... so pens do move themes that MAKE the higher rosters

RMU cutting hockey programs
PUCKCOVID19 replied to Bob Loblaw's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
didn't they lose a decent amount of players to transfers ? Something like 7-10 kids and it was the better ones too.... Guess a bunch of club kids will move up for a season. BUT who in their right mind would wanna go there after this rug pull? -
'Low level' AAA' grow the game?
PUCKCOVID19 replied to Saucey's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
WOW some people really hating on kids..... NO MATTER WHAT TEAM WE TALK ABOUT ( PPE,ESMARK,PREDS OR WHOMEVER) THERE IS ALWAYS PEOPLE BITCHING ABOUT WHO IS AND ISN'T ON THE TEAM...... WHO REALLY CARES? Everyone of them will all be beer leaguers by 26-28 years old... Enjoy the current rides with your kids bc before you know it it will be over. Then what are you going to grumble about? -
I would say they need to try to field half decent AA team or 2 before trying for AAA. OR could it be that Esmark moves down there with a name change ?

liberty university sells out every game and their acha d1. -
Last I checked ALL kids are going to end up in the same place ( beer league). so what's it really matter if someone wants to play a more competitive schedule, 2-3 ice slots a week all season, and has numerous friends on the team. Who cares, are you writing the checks? So many act like this or that team blah blah blah. BUT maybe the families there, its a fit for them and their happy with the coaching....... Not to mention their numbers where better then the Preds AAA, Lebo AAA, and Veng AAA....... so they must be doing something right ? They had more supply and demand then any of those other 3 teams........

the first year that they had the 2005 team, they finished in top 20. (18th). that would've been top spot for Mid ams in tier 2.....

PA Hockey Elite 8 Statewide Rankings
PUCKCOVID19 replied to Pa Hockey's topic in Western Pennsylvania Youth Hockey
both rink are shit holes and don't deserve the extra money from the league, not to mention they are both in the middle of nowhere... 90 percent of the teams are 40 plus minutes away from there too.... so why not rmu
