AZhockeydadU16 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 My sons U16 team played in the Winter Classic at Ice Castle Arena this past weekend. What's the deal with the Predators? Are they just a bunch of goons? We beat them 5-2 but it was a vicious game of cheap hits, fights, and penalties. They played the consolation game and the refs called the game before it was over. Is this how they play on a regular basis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckthat Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 The game you are referring to was called because a player from Ashburn head butted the ref. Your team won the tournament. Congratulations. What is the point of your post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZhockeydadU16 Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 To understand the mindset of the team. We don't have these kinds of games in Arizona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saucey Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Congrats on your win, hope you enjoyed our city! As to your question, there are a lot of aggressive teams out this way, more so as you go north into Canada and New York, and particularly after they hit Bantam and the testosterone kicks in. If you continue to travel to play, you need to prepare your players, there is still a lot of old school hockey being taught and played, although the shift to skill is happening. Sounds like they did just fine, putting the puck into the net instead of retaliating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
