Makes sense, but there is literally nowhere around there to park multiple busses, except maybe the Walmart parking lot like a mile away on the next hill over.

Not that I'm going, but where does BB expect people to park for the Nationals @ Center Ice? Heck, for just some regular busy weekends people park all the way down the drive in the front. I'm trying to figure out where 12+ teams worth of parents cars are going to park. (??)

Why has the PAHL always kept the stats a secret? That's been going on for a decade I believe.

Regarding scoring/PAHL scoresheets/etc. I was a long-time manager mostly at the AA and AAA level. I didn't care which team was which, I tried to be as accurate as possible both ways with the stats. What I found most of the time is the refs were lazy and would only give me 1 assist most of the time, even though I knew (easily) who had the second assist (for both teams)... I knew how to count shots and never bullcrapped around with padding stats. But I have literally sat next to other teams scorekeepers and they were totally clueless on shots/saves, etc. I've been gone from the PAHL for years, but I still think the dumbest move ever was implementing Fair Play Points.

he's still the commie at CHE as well. Must be nice to dip in all that $$$ https://www.collegehockeyeast.com/personnel I have no idea how he got the PAHL job or the CHE job. He's well connected and I guess that's the key.

Armstrong would easily be in the top 5.

Slightly OT, but how the heck did DF get the position as ED with PAHL when to the best of my knowledge he never had anything to do with them??? WTF? Regardless, he's done nothing to improve anything since we left a few years back. Everything still sucks... Just like the WPIAL.

I was just going to say the same thing to @hockeyisgreat but you beat me to it. They get paid $$$ and try to skate by with the minimum amount of work possible. Strange how nothing has changed much since Darcee left.

The PAHL and Midam are total hack buddy-buddy orgs. I couldn't break the glass to get in there, despite trying for years when my kids were active. They want the status quo and nothing more. No ambition, nobody with motivation to improve. The top 2 people in that org are stooges... none of this is surprising.

Our daughter was in this situation. We told the PAHL and PIHL coaches that the AAA team was her priority. They didn't have a problem... But scenarios from coach to coach would vary. But I get it that everyone is worried about lawsuits, etc.

As an RMU alum, I have ZERO idea where on campus they can fit a multi plex arena setup, without demolishing existing buildings - or filling in the valley on the back of campus. There is not much room on that property.

"Gender Equality Issue..." 😵‍💫 So glad I'm not dealing with this bullcrap anymore. The PAHL and Midam are run by inbred stooges.

This would be surprising, given the state of the environment and that hockey is one of the most expensive sports... but never underestimate the pens attempts to mess up youth hockey.

The only org my son played on, and we felt the tryouts were fair and unbiased (for the most part LOL), was with Allegheny in the PRE-BlackBear days. They would bring in outside evaluators and grade the players based on what they saw, not by how many years they played for Allegheny.
