The novice league in Newton was a bit of a crapshoot, they'd gotten rid of the B/C "primetime" level and so a bunch of B players dropped down to D. I could walk to the rink, though, so I was willing to deal with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EJB 488 Report post Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Tournament 2 weeks ago(her girls team played in a boys division) my little one getting run into the boards... PS called, unfortunately she was dinged and couldn't take it.Sequence of run into boards - Opposing players dad wanted him thrown.... I was in the bench and they were asking out loud if they could run a kid related to his dad in the stands.... And my last shot of the season for my son this year with the Skatin' Utes. Was just a scrimmage before Nationals... Solid season for the boys, he didn't get much ice time, but had a few points and loved the team, learned a lot.

MThockeydad 469 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 Our "Not-so-Elite" team from a C-level tourney in May. First tourney for four of our players, first coed for 3 of the gals, too. Another from an intermediate level tourney this past weekend: We placed 3rd. I had 2 goals, 3 assists, no penalty minutes! ;) 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
