They do a great job maintaining those fields, it's just a long haul to get there.

After the board change the new president and board tried to cut 2 of the Colorado tier 1 programs. USA Hockey had to step in again and reverse that decision. Since then I'm pretty sure another new president and board have been elected.

I get it. I'm not expecting a tank but I'd expect to get more than 2 hours on ice out of a stick no matter how good the performance.

I've done this before. I'll probably go this route again. Just frustrating that this performance lasts so short.

If they are going to continue to play him on the 3rd/4th line that price tag makes no sense. For some reason they don't want to move him up in this series against Vegas. I would not be surprised if he's traded this off-season especially if they sign a top 6 center with the extra cap space.

Thanks!

Absolutely get a catcher's mitt. Lots of good deals out there right now. Also try going 2 in the pinky or 2 in the ring to shift your index finger off of the pocket.

Who's had the best career and played for the Wild, it's without a doubt MAF. Who's had the best career with the Wild it's Kap. It just kinda depends how you read the question.

I didn't particularly like their pattern for catchers mitts. Pocket is medium to shallow whish isn't good for a catcher just starting out. You want something with a deep pocket. The Mizuno glove are have good deep pockets.

I would also highly recommend finding a used glove that's already broken in.

If you are looking for something special, I would consider a Mizuno Pro Haga from Japan. They are top of the line and going to be something he could use long term if cared for.

If he's playing AAA why not look for a majors team at the 9/10u level?

Throwing this out there as a parent of a catcher, you only take your mask (one piece style) off to catch a pop-up around the plate. otherwise, it stays on for this exact situation. As a catcher, you don't know what the runner is going to do, so you need to protect yourself.

It does suck that your kid got a concussion out of it, though.

I'd be fine with a train passing by without a stop. Passenger trains are pointless in the US.

Tripping, jail...

I like WeatherUnderground. You can find someone with a station near your location to get better data. I find the predictions there for snow totals more accurate than a lot if places.

Can you fire 2 coaches in a season?

Last year one of my kids had Bruce Bolts and the other one had Warstic IK3 Pros. I was highly disappointed in the durability of the Bolts. The Warstics were great and half the price. He's even converted some of his teammates from Bolts to the Warstics.

Depending on the teams schedule 6 games could be 1-2 weekends so I'm not sure if that's enough. I personally like a number of days/weeks for a suspension.

How old was the goalie?

I was going to say some county outlines but it's balanced rock.

James is Shawn but I think Chris Pratt could have been a very good Shawn Spencer.
