Is North Pittsburgh still an in-house only mite program? I always thought that was a great idea instead of chasing the dream at 6 years old and driving all over the place.

I actually think Ice Castle would have a chance to be a competitor but they would need to totally scrap and revamp their program. What they are doing now is producing very few competitive teams and they really don't seem to develop the players at all (from what i can see from the outside). I know several people who have been on (several different) teams.there 3-5 years who constantly complain about it. Still not sure why they continue to go back but I almost never hear anything good.

Speaking of which, looks like another year the second sheet isn't really happening at Printscape?

My buddy said Conway still doing skills with Cliff Loya and the birthyear SHAHA teams.

What happened to Ray Conway? I thought he always coached at PPE too but suddenly gone.

I saw one that said "My kid is Elite. Pittsburgh Penguins Elite". On A first year squirt dad's car. Spewed my coffee.

Only "Team PA" team I know of is the brick team that gets their butts kicked every year. I'm sure if there is money in it for them Pens Elite would put it together for you.

It's about HockeyFan6687 kid according to rumors on the street

I'm nominating this for best phrase to ever come out of this board

So much this. Have been through it with a kid and about to with another. Trust me keeping your grades and test scores up are the best way to get a scholarship. So much time and money wasted chasing an almost impossible dream of division 1 full ride. Not to mention put that money towards college and they will have a full ride to begin with.

Any updates from the Badgers organization about this guy continuing to coach?

Can someone explain this drama to the rest of us?

Merry Christmas!

Hang on buddy this is America two opposing viewpoints can't both have valid points!!!!!!

I'm not listening to anyone personally I just posted it for people who were asking where it was being said.

Now for the important question, have they improved the bar?

I hope so but I've heard that several years now.

I'm guessing they want to get the first sheet rented out to capacity with a higher ice price before they go to the second. They haven't even put the second one back in at Printscape yet let alone building a new one at Rostraver.

Not sure but I was shocked they were interested in Rostraver

Ice castle, RMU if they decide to get out of the business. Ice mine or Baierl? That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I remember this now that you mention it but it's a minimal update. Still looks like the 90s

This is a great topic in and of itself. Badgers, SHAHA, Preds all come to mind.

I think AHF and independent schedule would be amazing. Can we get western PA teams stop being afraid of playing each other though?
