That must be a great Midget AA team! Sorry to hear he didnt get it.
Womens hockey is really going. But wow thats some travel right there! How many games they play?
I have a full time job and coach US college as a second job. Id love to find a way to make hockey my main job. Keep dreaming Ballgame
Edmonton is a 3 hr drive and they fly to Minnesota so that is ok. I can look up some old college friends there. I went to the twin cities with the U of Calgary men's team in the early 90's. We played the U of Minnesota on a tour. I had a good visit then.
I don't know much about the league. Three teams have folded because of costs and not enough sponsors. It is too bad the women don't have enough teams to play for after college. There is a National Championship vs teams in the east. Cities are a lot closer together in Ontario and Quebec and that means a lot less travel expense.
The Oval Extreme folded. They were also in Calgary and had a lot of national team players. I don't know if the ones not on this years Olympic team want to play for this team or not. Everyone works on this team so there is only one or two practices a week.
