USA HOCKEY=Progression and Development
CAHA jamboree=Anti-USA HOCKEY
That jamboree goes against everything Usa Hockey is working for!!
Jedi, I can see what you mean. Many of us suspect there to be some political shenanigans that will affect the entire process. I am still willing to wait and give the CAHA folks the opportunity to do the right thing. If, in the next couple weeks, we find out that some of the poor performing teams have been gifted spots in the top flight, we'll all know the real deal: It's who you know and what jersey you wear. I am speaking about 12u, 14u and 16u.
That said, CAHA has a terrific opportunity to show the entire California hockey community that ALL kids count, not just those in the "favored" clubs.
Let's keep our fingers crossed that reasonable people prevail.
