I doubt it was on purpose. If they were that skilled they wouldn't have been scored on in the first place.
oh I for sure know it was nothing but careless but damn dude! you just hit someone at the base of their skull. a simple "oops! my bad!" would've calmed me down immediately.
karma did come around a few minutes later as he took a hard shot to the mask (not from me) and was down for a bit.
My coworker's daughter's boyfriend (I think?) went to some USA hockey tryout on the day of the CrowdStrike issues. I don't know if he's going NCAA route or JRs route though. I can check tomorrow.
Otherwise, I can't even think of schools you would be considering outside of RMU. Pitt club? Slippery Rock or whatever Cal U became?
Yeah, I just figured that maybe some local-ish folks here might have something too. If Chatham is even remotely on the radar for that kid, I'd love to pass him and his contact info along to an advisor (not agent, of course...ahem). No obligation to you or to the player.
He's a goalie (so I don't know if that changes things), but he's currently undecided. From what my coworker said, he's thinking D1 or bust at this point. RMU might be a consideration if they show interest.

I'd score some points for it, certainly haha
What are you asking specifically
Players that would consider playing college hockey at Chatham.
Word. It’s a pretty low end D3 program but maybe they’ll pick up steam now that they’re investing in the Hunt Armory. Can’t think of anyone at the moment though
My main is a 77 flex Warrior with the Karlsson curve, and they stopped making it like 3 years ago. Ordered a Malkin Pro from ProStockHockey (it was on sale for like $50 lol) and it's as close as I can get, with a slightly deeper pocket. It's just a hair too long for not being on skates and feels awkward to shoot with.
Kinda weird how much that extra inch throws things off.
First mite tournament in the books. Pretty great weekend. Won 2 lost 2, all 4 games were lopsided. Hard to tell what level teams should play at in these things. One team looked like a bunch of inhouse leaguers. Another was zipping the puck around like they’ve been playing together for years (from Long Island playing down, go figure)
We have 1 player on our team who played last year. So pretty great result all things considered and the best part is half of them couldn’t even tell you if they’re winning 10-1 or losing 10-1 lol
Cross ice - but the rink we played at had a “puddle” sheet that was a little smaller than a typical cross ice and we had to play 4 on 4 instead of 3 on 3. So there wasn’t a ton of room out there. We definitely play better with more space - dominated a scrimmage earlier this year where the dividers were at the red line
Little anecdote - our goalie is hit or miss with regard to whether he feels like playing. His dad is my assistant and he refuses to listen to him - he listens to me but I want to pick my spots so I don’t lose him too. Yesterday’s consolation game he wasn’t feeling it so he gave up the first 4 shots without moving and then pokechecked the puck off one of our own players sticks intentionally. I think his dad’s soul left his body after that one so I had to get him going after the period and he settled in and only gave up one more the rest of the game haha. Mites, man
