Most of the Squirt A teams were in the Anaheim tourney for Labor Day. Seemed like all the teams were competitive except The Mariners. Any teams stand out? Where did Jr Kings play for Labor Day? I saw Bears played against BB teams so can't judge that performance.

I did hear OCHC BB team may move up to A. Anyone else hear that?
Also, surprised Ice Dogs only won by 2 against the Ontario Wave. Ice Dogs are starting off slow it seems, they have some firepower but not scoring much yet.
Yeah, that definitely makes more sense. It was listed funny (marked as "in progress")
Is the SCAHA site usually this slow to post scores?

Ducks (EK) beat Ice Dogs 2-1
Gulls beat Mariners 11-1
Some pretty tight scores across the board, with the exception of the Gulls game. I'd say Kings are top dog right now... but it's a loooooong season.

would be interesting to know how you came up with "Kings are top dog right now" with 2 games into the PRE-season. Ducks (2) beat an alleged good IceDog team while your Kings gave up 3 to a Ducks (1) team that went scoreless against the Gulls a week ago. Yes, it's a "loooooong season" but that's why the kids play the game... nuffsed.
i'll go out on a limb and agree with whom ever GameByNumbers should predict is TopDog... I heard the Kings have most, if not all players and goalie returning. Played a few tournaments... Advantage Kings. Someone's mentioned Gulls could finish better depending on who they have returning. Both Ducks teams looked good in LaborDay, BUT still too early to say.
I predict the Mariners will beat the Jr Kings 1-0 next week

No it's a forfeit! Seems a trend has started. I recall the same thing happening last year in squirt A. Haha!

Because you can't develop a Squirt team locally. Ontario is the closest place for any real competition. Good Grief, they are 9.

Lol! They are 9 and 10 year olds and you want to see how they compare against other 9 and 10 years old and you have to travel to London or Canada? Really? Do they eat more Wheaties in Canada or a London? Lol! They play just like any other 9 or 10 year olds play. You can get the same competition at the next closest rink.
How are the Jr Kings doing in Canada?
Squirt A went 1-3, 3 very tight one goal games and got blown out by London. Overall great experience and great time had by all. Bummer to lose two one goal games but they showed they can compete with some of the top teams in Canada. Should have won both of those games but penalties were a factor in both. We will be back next year.Drew Doughty Invitational in London Ontario.

It's not about development, it's about seeing how you compare to top competition from other regions. In other words, about measuring the development.

Our team is 9 yr olds playing against mostly 10 yr olds in scaha. We travel to see how we do against 9 yr olds from traditional hockey markets to see where we are developmmentally. Not sure what is so hard to understand about that. SoCal birth year teams have been doing that for years. There were teams from Pittsbugh, Long Island, and Syracuse there as well Plus the kids have a blast and it builds team unity.
Do not forget Bailey the Lion was there as well. :-*That dude owes me $$ too !!
I think it's about 2 things; the travel experience which is fun and good team bonding and it's about ego ("we played a tournament in Canada so we are good"). You want local competition from 9 year olds I hear Gasseaus 2007 BB team is really good. They haven't lost a game this season (won all by 7-8 goals) and have won every tournament they have been in over the last year.
Rumor has it, there is a pretty good 06 team down the road that was nationally ranked last year. I'm sure they could have provided a pretty good measuring stick? But hey, I agree, the fun memories are what the kids will remember. All the other stuff is for the parents and club.
Sorry was referring to the 06 team not the 07 team.I think it's about 2 things; the travel experience which is fun and good team bonding and it's about ego ("we played a tournament in Canada so we are good").

That Ducks BB team looks pretty good but they have played mostly bottom half teams. They only beat the Kings 07 bb by 1 (not 7 or 8. If they are so good why didn't they go squirt A instead of BB?Rumor has it, there is a pretty good 06 team down the road that was nationally ranked last year.

An 07 team against a top ranked 06 team? That would be an embarrassment for both teams.

The 06 Ducks team that went to Buffalo last year when they were 9?
The catalyst for this whole trip was the NHL Kings stroking a fat check for a 3 year sponsorship of the Drew Doughty tournament to benefit Ronald McDonald House , and in return the Jr Kings get a spot in the Atom and Minor Atom divisions. So the 07's and 08's will most likely go next year and the 08's and 09's the year after. It was a first class event and a first class experience. Beats going to KHS or Lakewood on a Sunday morning, even if the competition is good (it is). Sorry but it's the truth.
http://youtu.be/f-PWJmvvZ_M. This is why they went, :-X :-X :-X
Enough already!! Just let these kids play hockey. We are in preseason and everyone is talking about no competition locally. Every week, each team is going to get better and the Squirt A division will be highly competitive. Let these super Jr. Kings run the table on all the others teams and then let's talk. I doubt that is going to happen. But for God's sake these kids are 9 and 10 years old, let them play and have fun.
I applaud the JrKings' parents that decided to allow their hockey players to experience the travel and all Canada had to offer. Yes, these kids are only 9 years old, but SO WHAT? I won't begin to advise any parent what to do with their money and how to develop their young athletes. I'm sure we all want the BEST for our kids. Whether it be local or a thousand miles away... if I think it will benefit the team and there's an agreement from EVERY parent TO attend a tournament far away, then so be it.Spoken like a true KOOL-AID drinker.
I'd suggest other Members SHOULD voice their support because as other California clubs send their teams abroad and represent SoCal hockey... with their success, the rest of us could benefit as the world may want to travel to our local tournaments to compete and measure up against our players. AND... you didn't have to spend a dime for the clubs that DO go thousands of miles.
no idea KOOL AID was so bad for you... however, Canada is currently the BEST nation when it comes to hockey. you're correct, that no one will search GOOGLE for hockey tournaments when a California team wins ONE game, but... the JrKings ATOM team got 2 Wins and tied 2. If more SoCal teams could afford to play in Canada and maybe win more than ONE game... why wouldn't teams outside the U.S want to measure their kids up against California teams. Yes, it's a long shot... but I haven't read or heard of any other post on this board.

Jr. Ducks 2 ranked 1st??? Cmon man? What are you smoking? Blowing out the worst team in the league twice is not grounds for a good team. I'd put the Ducks 1 ahead of them and my kid doesn't play for the ducks. Sounds like we have some dillusional folks on this site. Then again, makes for fun banter.
You must be on that team and I'm assuming this is your oldest child? The Bears Bb team was ridiculously bad last year. Now they are a. The ice dogs have not shown that they are even close to last years caliber. The time that the ducks 2 tied the wave they were plying on the Westminster baby rink. Makes a huge difference. Oh, and I believe it was the wave that went on to the championship in Anaheim. It amazes me every year the koolaid shared among teams. Will be fun to read these posts after a few games.

Kings are tops right now. They've been together a long time... and they added several good kids in the off-season. Every other team is a mix of new kids still figuring each other out. Even the Ducks (EK) are new to each other, with two of their best players being new. Like I've said before, it'll all change as the season progresses. But for now, you'll see in two games when the Kings remain undefeated through preseason. But Artesia (with several Ice Dogs coming over), Ducks (EK), Ducks (Runtso... new kids as well), Gulls, Ice Dogs (BB winners... and good new kids), and Bears (a new coach named Kim and only 4 players from that "ridiculously bad" BB team) doing just fine.
can't wait to read the excuses for the Ducks vs. Ducks game... unless that was a typo. 2 games in one day? GODucks!
Jr. Gulls 5 - Jr. Kings 1 - Game over 8)
Jr. Gulls 5 - Jr. Kings 1 - Game over 8)
Whaaaaaaat?! This changes everything!!!
Gulls, get to a Canadian tournament STAT. ::)
Hey "just Saying" - not sure I understand your comment. Going to Canada for a tournament isn't about proving a team is the "top." It's about experiences. Btw - it many cases it's cheaper to play in Canada than the US. The bonus is some "poutine" for the gravy and cheese lovers! Seriously - Gulls are a good strong 06 team. After the first period (4 to 0) it was a pretty even. Nice to see the little 07s working hard. Should be interesting to see the rematch. It's going to be a great year for all the squirt A teams. They are all going to get better thanks to good competition. Shows how far Cali hockey has come. I remember just a few years ago when squirt a had one or two competitive teams. The rest were gong shows!
Anyone at the Ducks vs Ducks game?
Heard there was some coaches who lost their cools and it was not EK. Eye witnesses, please?

I thought they only have the SJ goalie. I heard he was the one sick.
The LeBlancs also help to coach others during the game. “If the teenage referees make a ‘bad call,’ we point it out to the officials immediately and very loudly — sometimes face-to-face — so they have an opportunity to improve,†they said. “We regularly inquire as to whether the referees have a visual disability, whether they are awake, if they are acquainted with the game of hockey and the rules of the game, as well as asking how they fit their entire head inside of their own ass. In the end, I truly believe that the refs enjoy our honest and frank feedback on their performance.â€

The SCAHA mobile version still only lists preseason. Annoying.

Agreed. Not sure why they took the approach of doing a completely seperate interface rather than just making it grid based and responsive.
There are a few other really annoying bugs, like the wonky way that the stats screen works, and it's annoying tendency to use either session or cookies for pagination, and having that get invisibly stuck. It's a pain just to make the selections of the information you want to see. UI is not their strong point, clearly.
Yeah but that is just basic stuff for any competent web design/development group these days. There is some code that essentially degrades or hides stuff depending on the characteristics of the browser. You have one set of code, rather than several completely different sets with different bugs in them. For a site as simple as Scaha, I can't understand why they did a seperate codebase. Needless to say you can see the problems -- the mobile site doesn't even offer the same information, and as pointed out, doesn't have the current standings or even regular season choice right now.
I was taught the trick of pulling up the scaha site on your phone. Don't go to scaha.com, just search "SCAHA". the scaha.com come site will be listed first, click on "standings" and the web version will open.

After mys sons game this morning, we headed to watch the Gulls/Kings game. I've been listening to a lot of hoopla about them. They are the top two teams in our division hands down. The Gulls are bigger and stronger, but that didn't seem to bother the Kings which didn't back down. The Kings Coaching staff and spend will make the difference. Come March I wouldn't want to meet either team.
Kings 5, Gulls 2.

I think Kings are number 1 now based on that result.

[size=78%]Ice Dogs/Gulls and A. Waves/Kings are both going to be great games and set the tone. Ducks 1 & 2 both with get a win!!!![/size]
The Ice Dog barely beat both those teams. And that's to say that the Ducks 1 had a bad game that day. When the ice Dogs beat the Gulls, A. Waves, Kings, Or Ducks 2 than we can start considering them as top four. Pre-season doesn't count......
Where are my lines? I have some bets to place.
We should just share notes so it makes it more competitive.

So exactly what method do you use to come up with these rankings?? This stuff is hilarious
Assume he used save percentage but there are so many other factors. I think these goalie rankings are way off.
Their were several great performances today from the Net Keepers. I would rank them
1. Kings
2. Ducks 1
3. Bears
4. Gulls
5. Ducks 2
6. A. Waves
7.Ice Dogs

What about teams with 2 goalies? Some play every other game, while some split the game. How would one figure that in?
I heard the Kings didn't walk on Water today. Depending on who started for them in net they may drop even lower. A. Waves have moved to the #1 ranking. Any update on the Gulls/Ice Dog Game?
I was referring to their #1 Goalie, it's pretty obvious who the primary Goalie is a majority of the time. The assumption is that travel hockey is for development first and towards the end of the game winning.
One of the parents kept me update on how the Gulls dominated the Ice Dogs from start to finish, even scored short handed when the Ice Dogs had pulled their goalie. My point early in the week still stands!!!!! 5th at best,

Not always, last season my son's team had 2 goalies each played 1/2 the game and they took turns who started.
They have one full time Goalie!!! He quite good, the only issue is their 2nd and 3rd line defense isn't any good and fail him. In the games I've seen that's what happened.T the B sounds like a goalie dad.

I know but I still think Jr Ducks are a better team based on what I have seen this season. Next time they meet I think Ducks win by 2.
That makes no sense. The two teams played. One team beat the other... but you "think" the losing team is better. Rank teams on what they've done, not what you think they're going to do.

I think the jr Ducks will beat the Jr kings mark my word
It will be fun, as soon as Goalie_dad ranks the teams and the Ice Dogs aren't ranked where they should or shouldn't be some feathers will be ruffled. Lol the Ducks 1 may shock the A. Waves.

Doubt it. Artesia has too much fire power. Might be close until 3rd... until the better team always pulls away.
Spoken like a A. Waves dad. Lol, the firepower consist of one strong player and another that wants to be the man. But hates being touched let alone contact. The short bench will eventually catch up to the Waves.

What exactly is the rationale for Wave first? Kings defeated them twice, and they defeated kings once. Gulls also exchanged wins with both Kings and Wave......Would your child happen to play for the wave?
Top 3 seem pretty interchangeable right now... with Ducks (2) and Ice Dogs right there. What ever happened with the Ducks (1) v. Ontario game this weekend? I'm guessing Ducks (1)... but the question is if they covered the line.

No Ducks/Wave results yet?
Thank, so i guess you don't have a lead for me. I can't speak for them thats just my observation. Their Goalie is really good, that being said their defense also did a great job supporting him and all their front line back checks. My son has been in net for many years and I still havent seen him score. So coaching makes a big difference. I also think our coaches are great. GO DUCKS!!!!Good teams find a way to win. Even when they dont play their best. Sunday wasn't the best showing for the little kings. Regardless, they got the w.

Gulls 5 - Ducks 1
Today we got beat by a team that is better than us!!!! I'm honest enough to admit it. That's why the Gulls are ranked ahead of us. The Gulls are solid on both ends of the ice. Our kids need to learn to be more consistent
Sounds right. Both goalies are 06 though.
Did anyone catch the Kings game? Did they play the well or did the Bears play that bad?
Goalie_dad, we need next week's lines and rankings. The only interesting game will be the Ducks2 / Ice Dogs. The others are pretty much final already.
Other than the Kings, who has an 07 goalie?
Goalie_dad, I was wondering why the Tide were planning their parade already. Sometimes even the best loss but in saying that it's also rare. No disrespect intended to any clubs. When we play the Gulls, Ice Dogs, and Kings as long as we work hard anything is possible. But I also know that if their also on their A game they are really difficult to beat. I'm a realist!!!!
Goalie_dad, your going to get a lot of grief for saying the Ducks 1 will beat the Ice Dogs. Some people are sensitive about the Ice Dogs not being added to the top four. Lol cant wait to see the Gulls or Kings against the A. Waves to see who will knock them off their perch.
What happened with Ice Dogs v. Ontario Wave last weekend, by the way?
Not to get too preachy, but this is straight from the SCAHA Guidelines. It's my understanding that as soon as the scoresheet is entered, it is available on the site. I wonder if that SCAHA cash register has rung once.
"For A/B teams, the home club is responsible for the distribution of the scoresheets. The home club must enter all game statistics and upload a legible scanned copy of the scoresheet on the SCAHA website by 10pm of the following Monday after the game date. Clubs failing to complete the scoresheet procedures will be warned by the League Statistician. Upon second notification, the club will be assessed a $50 fine per late scoresheet."

I'm guessing they do not enforce this. Wave are late every week.

The game earlier was more than physical, that play was dirty as hell!!!! That's how kids get hurt, plus it's a long season. There is no place in Squirt of PW for hits like that. If the refs cant control the games the kids will, and it is proven that they dont always make the best decisions.
Dirty play against them?? You have to be kidding......the play was nothing other than two kids going for the same real estate BOTH with their heads down. Ice Dog player happens to be much larger so it definitely looked worse; however before you go call a 10yr old dirty you should see it. These kids definitely take on the coaches personality, which is gritty and hard working but definitely not dirty. Here's an angle from the play that validates that both players went for the pick at the same time

Sure it's definitely a penalty, and the player needs to learn to keep his head up; however they're squirt players and a penalty and a dirty play/player are entirely different. The ID player is actually a pretty sesnsotove kid that doesn't mean to ever hurt anyone and then to have a dad come drop F bombs repeatedly at the player in the box and ID bench was ridiculous. Keep it in perspective people! The most important part of the entire play was making sure the injured player was ok.
Wave (Artesia) win handily. After being close in 1st., pulled away in 2nd & 3rd periods, 9-2.
Ducks 2 had a dirty play against them by Ice Dogs? Who would have ever guessed? Doesn't a team usually take on the personality of their Coach? Do tell more, please.
Final score of Ducks 2 vs Ice Dogs?
Also, final score of scrimmage on Saturday?
Doesn't look like a dirty play from the video... D was going for it, skated into kid with puck. It was a body on body play. Happens all the time at Squirt. Is the kid okay?
Watched the video a few times, looked at the score sheet. IMHO, refs got this one right. Clear charging. Not a dive and not a dirty play. Scoresheet shows a fair number of roughs and body checks, looks like by both teams. Forward needs to learn to keep his head up. Defender needs to learn how to use his size and realize that big kid/smaller kid collisions will draw a call at this level. Hopefully, the team has a long talk to the parent who thought it was acceptable to lay into a kid in the penalty box. BTW, if you are not comfortable with the play on the video, its time for you to find a different sport for your kid. Game gets much bigger, faster, and rougher at Pee Wee, even though technically checking is not allowed.
It wasn't even my kid that got hit, but I hope that everyone that is ok with that hit still has the same stance if it were their kid. I also don't condone any parent berating any 10 year regardless of the situation. That was uncalled for and embarrassed our club.
Bear71, I dont even know how to respond to that. Is that a dig at your coach or kids. Either way I probably wouldn't have posted that. If the Bears are soft I would probably look at the parents, apples don't fall far from the tree.

I see the humor, I just would've never said that about a club I'm affiliated with, especially on a public form. What message does that send.
i'll put my money on Krivo winning AZ.

Anybody see the final score of the EK Ducks/OWave game? the tournament site seems to be down.
It looks like both the Ducks have the Kings number. At least they beat our BB team. Tomorrow after we beat the Bears, we look forward to playing the Ducks 1 in the finals. Their going to beat the Kings, at least the Kings can go home early and rest for next weekend.
Ok, we will see what happens tomorrow. By 10:00 we will know whos playing at 4:00pm. I hope you enjoy being a spectator. Hire who you want, that won't help. Age and experience will always beat youth and luck.
Disco Daisy, maybe get past the Ducks 1 and than you can chime in.
Goalie_dad, do you know who's in the playoffs for tge tge other tournaments. I can update you on the score for the Ducks 1 vs Ducks 2 finals tomorrow at about 5:30
DD, no need to worry about that. I'm going to be Quacking all the way to the finals. I'm even willing to pay the $10 so you guys can watch finals online. Wouldn't want you to miss the show.
Unless the Bears recruit from their PW AA than that's also a wrap. Just cause you guys struggled with them doesn't mean we will.
Some call it a Villian I call it a winner!!!! See you in a few gentleman, next year I'm sure I will see a lot more of you guys trying out for the Ducks.
Like I said before, Tommy the Bomber probably doesn't even have a kid on the Ducks A2 team. Just likes to run his mouth.

Ducks got Fleeced.
Any insight on the game? Ducks play poorly, Kings play great or both?
Looks like one kid scored 5 of the Jr Kings 6 goals. Take that away, you've got a pretty even match up. Probably just your tail between your legs TTB. Hopefully the rest of the Jr Ducks team realize it was one game and it doesn't necessarily make Jr Kings the better team.Hate to break it to you, but at this point it does make them a better team.

I haven't heard anyone say it was a one man show. Just looking at the stats. Jr Ducks A2 have beat the Jr Kings twice? Just saying one win doesn't mean a better team. Pretty equal with wins/losses when playing each other.Jr. Kings have beaten the Ducks 3 times, whats your point?
Goalie_dad, do you have the lines for the NHL World Cup games this weekend.
Goalie_dad, do you have the lines for the NHL World Cup games this weekend.
I need to see the Gulls and Ducks rosters. The other teams are clear who is on the roster. Once I see the rosters for those two teams I will have lines for the weekend.
Need to update scores from last weekend so I can update rankings as needed, should do that by Wednesday.

The Jr Gulls roster I need to see is the 2007 roster for the NHL Cup tournament this weekend. Do the Gulls have an '07 SQ BB team? My understanding is the SQA team is mostly '06s.
Unless some birth certificates can be doctored, I'm guessing Jr. Kings will be pretty heavy favorites this weekend.
Ducks look like their bringing some Wave players to join the fun.
I'll take Jr. Kings for the win... and Ducks finishing ahead of Gulls. While they'll be a mishmash of players, Ducks will have speed and aggression in spades... and that'll make up for their unfamiliarity.
In the past has the winner from the East played the winner of the West?
In the past has the winner from the East played the winner of the West?
Don't think so.
As for the Gulls, most of those kids on the SQWA team are 06, which means most their kids on 07 team will be BB, while most Ducks will be SQWA (including Wave ringers). Gulls won't be able to hang with the speed and skill over the whole game. You know how it goes. Could be wrong, but some of those 07 Ducks can really skate.

The NHL Cup site has a roster for Gulls.

Just looked at the Duck rooster and its stronger than I thought. I think if EK keeps the lines from each team consistant (Duck EK play with Duck EK, Duck Runtso plays with Duck Runtso, wave plays with Wave) they might have a chance. Looks like they have the top line from each team with a few BB boys mixed in. Should be interesting.
My guess is that there just are not enough teams in the "West". It will make some of those games more competitive. Still think Dallas and Kings beat the Gulls but those will be close games between those three teams.
I did see the Ducks roster is up and that is a good group of kids, just think they are a group of individuals and will not play as a team. Just like the California Brick teams...
I am sticking by my predictions.
Perhaps they were asked to play since there aren't that many teams in the West? And, if I'm not mistaken, the Gulls are an AHL team... so them being there doesn't even make sense to begin. Their 07 BB teams wouldn't be competitive, so perhaps they figured "what the heck."
And to be fair, the Jr. Kings did just sent their PWAA 06/05 team to the Drew Doughty London Jr Knights tournament and put them in the 06 Major division... even though half their team are 05s.

Kings only took three 05s to the Doughty Tournament. While I agree with your point, taking an entire 06 team with two 07s is a bit ridiculous. The Gulls 07 team plus their A players would be competitive, just may not be as strong as the Kings, Ducks, or Stars.

No. They took 8 05s and a goalie to London. Check the roster. Majority of that team is 05.
we should make the 06's wear 10lb weight vests

Don't worry, the 06s still playing SQWA already skate like they're wearing 10lb weight vests. :o

I didn't realize that Kings had that many 05s in London. I still don't think bringing an 06 team to an 07 tournament when you have an 07 team is okay. Kings 06 birthyear is all over the place. Gulls have a solid team that should be allowed to participate (just like the Ducks). I'm glad to see the Ducks pulled up BBS to help out!
I still don't think bringing an 06 team to an 07 tournament when you have an 07 team is okay.
It's my understanding that the Gulls were asked to play in the tournament. They did not seek it out. Also they are not an all 06 team, it's about a 50-50 split with one 08.
All of the top SCAHA Squirt A teams are very close in skill level, despite birth year breakdowns, so it should be very competitive and fun for everyone. 8)

It absolutely amazes me to listen to adults ramble on about 9 and 10 year old kids, when it is likely that most if not ALL of you have never played a sport past high school or perhaps never even made a varsity team in their lives. I can assure that I have played the sport at a much higher level than anyone in this discussion and I would never talk about young athletes the way you people do.

Don't worry, the 06s still playing SQWA already skate like they're wearing 10lb weight vests. :o
It absolutely amazes me to listen to adults ramble on about 9 and 10 year old kids, when it is likely that most if not ALL of you have never played a sport past high school or perhaps never even made a varsity team in their lives.

I think half the board wrote "lighten up" at the same time. :D
We all love the sport, support our kids endlessly, and like to have fun doing it. Simple as that.
I don't have an answer for that.
And "Lighten up, Francis" is my copyrighted line. Royalties can be paid directly to the Reseda Ice Project Fund (circa 2032).
I expected better from the Kings. They have been playing together for a while now and played a "Ducks" team just thrown together in the last few weeks. "Ducks" obviously have talent but Kings should have won by a few goals at least.

Final Score:
Kings 7
Wave 4
Ducks 2
BobbyOrr, so what your really trying to say is that.
Waves 4 + Ducks 2 = 6 Goals
Kings = 7 Goals
So 6 Goals ÷ By Ducks & Waves = 3
So it looks like the Kings really covered the spread.
Common Core Math is the best.

Good analysis TTB! This is awesome!!!
Dallas Stars Elite 1 San Diego Jr. Gulls 2
Based on this, I am thinking the Gulls will win all their games. The Dallas team is a good team...
Gulls 4 Ducks 3. Game winner was scored with less than a minute left.
I'm not following anyone's logic regarding the Duck/Wave breakdown. Last time I checked, hockey was a team sport. Plays revolve around the whole line not just who got the goal and as we all know sometimes the whole play was started by the kid who doesn't get the goal or the assist. I'm not saying the Wave players didn't look great, they did and most shifts they did carry the line but there were also three other players on the ice contributing. To say the Ducks only scored 2 goals would only be true if there were no Duck players on the ice when the Wave players scored their goals. For a team without any play prior to yesterday, they didn't look that bad. The Jr. Kings kids should be disaapointed with the game, to be together for as long as they have to have such a close game is tough. They looked fast but I truthfully haven't seen the improvement from preseason that I have with some of the other SCHA teams. JMO
So I guess the two top teams are the Jr. Kings in 1st with a record of 4-0 and the Jr. Gulls in 2nd at 3-1. Kings are looking to go 5-0 for the Tournament when they play the Phoenix Coyotes tomorrow morning. Their either some of the luckiest kids or that group of misfits are actually talented. Two straight banners, two consecutive weekends.
Its eerily quiet in here. Didn't anyone have anything good or bad to say about the past weekend? Hmmm.. peculiar.
A realist would know that PW is watered down. B is basically in-house. BB/A is a hodgepodge of kids that belong there and kids that don't. AA isn't much more consistent. There will likely be a Ducks PWAA team next year with 07s on it, but the question is if it'll be all 07s or have some 06s like the Kings PWAA 06/05 team this year. If the Ducks ever want to seriously contend with the 07 Kings, who will get better and better as the years go by, they'll need to make some tough decisions this Spring.

No bone to pick in this thread, but Peewee B is peewee B. If you want to play hockey, you have to start somewhere.
You mention BB/A is a hodge podge of kids that don't belong there. Where do they belong then? Then you write that AA isn't more consistent. How many games are you watching? Good teams at AA don't have serious weaknesses and are consistent.
A piece of advice, get informed before you have little Johnny Hockey skate up. More than one team has struggled skating up this season and sometimes clubs push kids to skate up to meet tier requirements. The Kings team you reference has one win in CAHA.
The only division you haven't mentioned is, AAA. If you are looking for that, I'm sure you can find it. Somebody will tell you whatever you want and cash the check.

Informed how? I said that the Ducks will have an 07 PWAA team next year, which they will. And the next year they will be AAA Minor. And the following they will be AAA Major. Am I missing something?

I'm confused and just don't understand how that 07 team can be AA next year. Especially if they will not even be the strongest team of of the 3?? Do we all think they will be better than Khon and Runtso?
Who knows if they will keep they're talent next season... I heard some could be going to the Kings program next season
I think there are several players that have a shot at making the team as long as they leave their parents at home. Let the kids play and the coaches coach and enjoy the game.

That's funny. Funnier is the Bears being favorites?! Unchartered territory!
Damn Goalie_dad, you make it sound like their going to go 3-12. LolIf the chalk won every game, gambling would be easy and Vegas would be ashes (I know, I'm taking all 4 favorites this week, but laying the points). I wouldn't be surprised if the Bears pulled off an upset or three along the way.
Bear71, what's your thought on that.

The Ducks will beat the Waves this week.
Goalie_dad, hopefully the consistent one. We've been resting the last three weeks.
At least half of us will be fresh. Lol
Lol, that was good. Can I buy some points.
Yes they are, I'm optimistic. Can't bet against them.You should. Betting with the head typically is favored over betting with the heart (except for romance).

Dogs 6 kings 2 worst ref job I have ever seen Dogs were the better team today, but not 4 goals better.
Just Saying, I am excited. Hopefully the outcome will be what i want. Gulls beat the Ducks 1 5-0.

All kidding aside... there were 19 penalties in your game?? That's just stupid.
Dogs 6 kings 2 worst ref job I have ever seen Dogs were the better team today, but not 4 goals better.
Well.....the Dogs were actually every bit of those 4 goals better and actually 5 if were being honest. The kings definitely got themselves into penalty trouble as did the dogs at times. The Dogs were relentless in 5 on 5 action and had at least (2) short handed goals. The Dogs scored another goal that was disallowed because the net came off; however if the zebra would have actually been in position he would have seen that the net came off after the puck had long been in the net. Credit to the Kings for the valiant effort in the the 3rd period. They had numerous PP opportunities including a 5 on 3 for almost a full 2 min and the Dogs tender came up big every time he needed to, including multiple 1 on 1 opportunities. Top to bottom, the Dogs outplayed the Kings on this Sunday and they were indeed 4 goals better. That's not a knock on the Kings by any means, if anyone has truly followed the division the top teams are all pretty capable of competing with each other on "any given Sunday"

The refs spotted us two goals??? Yes we were up 2–0; however one of them came on the power play and one of them was SHORTHANDED!!! The reason the game was tied at one point in the 2nd was because of those exact ticky-tack calls you referred to. And if you were going to paint the picture about the empty net goal, tell it like it is..... you guys had a full two-man advantage and your coaches with five minutes left in the game & chose to pull the goalie. So that gave you a three-man advantage and you got scored on again SHORTHANDED!!! When you're team had plenty of opportunities in the third period, they were stopped. In fact, late in the 2nd With a 2 on 0 situation our goalie robbed your player which shifted momentum because we turned around and scored a goal (equal strength) right after. After we scored to go ahead, your team was given numerous power-play opportunities and had no answer; it happens, they are all young players and some days just go this way. You have a very good little group over there, and yesterday just wasn't their day.Not sure what game you were watching....at no point were the ice dogs dominating; however, in several instances the kings were asleep. How does a dominating team not score more goals with multiple 5 on 3s? I had expected a tougher team, and surely had not expected a Kings hangover. I think I saw one play where the ice dogs actually had to work for a goal. Reminded me a lot of the Gulls 5 to 1 defeat of the kings a few months back. The Gulls have since lost twice to the Kings. With respect to the goal being off, you were obviously not near the net because you could hear a dad yelling the net was off and see the goalie talking to the ref prior to the goal. Were you on rink B for this one?
A team with a goalie from San Jose and a poster on calhockey named sjtender31 bragging in every post about how good said goalie is. Gee, I wonder who in the world could that be?
Just Saying, January 22nd, 2017 is the rematch.
Sjtender31, are you implying that no other coach prepares their kids like it's a new game. Also I wasn't referring to the tender not being a good kid or anything.
Goalie_dad, i know it's early but what's the lines and ranking for next week. It looks like the Dogs are in the top 4 finally. Lol

Bear71, you guys didn't look hard enough for me at the Semi-Finals game. I was there, I just had to move cause my legs were cramping. Lol
Yup I'm curios who it's going to be this week. Last week was the Kings

Goalie_dad, if the Ducks 1 beat the Ice Dogs will that drop the Dogs and move up the Ducks 2 if they also win.Tommy's showing that his confidence is waning, as he never before would use the phrase "if they also win" in referencing his beloved Ducks 2, especially against the Bears.
If the Kings beat the Waves will that also swap them since they also beat the Gulls?
When will you be opening the beating website so we can start wagering. Lol
TeddyBear71, it is to early, but since you went there. Rumor has it that he was watching you guys practice and couldn't take it anymore. As they were rushing him out he can be heard yelling "That's Not Hockey"That's funny, TTB. Let's see how much you're laughing when you go 0 for December. ;)

What quality wins do the Bears have? Ducks (1) beat Kings in Thanksgiving tournament (and beat Ducks (2) in pre-season). Comparing how many goals the Bears beat Wave (Ont) is not a good indication. When Bears played Ducks (1) it was a one goal game that could have gone either way.
Like I said, Bears need a quality win, they beat Ducks (2) they will claim the 6th spot.
Crom,HAHA! My favorite movie!
I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good boys or bad. Why we won, or why we lost. All that matters is that the Bears stood against the Ducks. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant us one request:
Grant us revenge!
And if you do not listen,
then to HELL with you!
Bears71, if you recall last time we played each other on Oct. 23rd @ 7:30 A.M. We beat you like a drum 8-0!!!! Just cause you guys lost by one to us in the Thanksgiving Tourney doesn't mean you guys got that much better. We played bad and you guys got luck.

I think the plan is TTB will have that excuse all lined up to use. Ducks 2 might be better off, as their big stud d-man tends to find himself in the box a few times per game.Bears71, if you recall last time we played each other on Oct. 23rd @ 7:30 A.M.

TTB it looks like a trend to me. plus didn't your big stud d-man go to detroit with the 06's? Those are some big skates to fill, what is the plan for that??

I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good boys or bad. Why we won, or why we lost. All that matters is that the Bears stood against the Ducks. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant us one request:
Grant us revenge!
And if you do not listen,
then to HELL with you!
Bears71, I don't need excuses, if I recall correctly you called your team soft and that's to say your son is probably on it. Apples don't fall to far from the tree. No excuses if you beat us you guys beat us. It will be 1 out of 4. But for some that's something to brag about. Either way it will be all settled by this time Sunday.

No. The phonetic spelling is Krom... but the correct spelling is Crom. Crom gives strength. Crom gives endurance. And Crom has little patience for TTB's insolence.
Ducks (2) beat Bears 6-2. Crom ignores our prayers. Clearly, a sacrifice must be made... we will search the parking lot for TTB. :P
Other scores???
Infectious Disease also beat the Ducks 1. I don't recall the score
Happy New Years everyone!!!!!
Goalie_dad,
what's the lines for this weekend? My New Years resolution is to be nicer to Bears71. Lol
Bear71, I see the game was closer this time.Perhaps on the scoreboard. Jr. Kings came out in the first five minutes and punched our team in the mouth. It was fairly even the next 25 or so minutes, but to their credit the JK's played better throughout and deserved the victory. It was nice to see a game where the ref didn't have to blow his whistle a ton, let the kids play, and didn't miss many calls (except maybe for a missed roughing/boarding call against one of our boys-our kid went in a bit hard and high on a play).
Goalie_dad, can we get a preview on next weeks line. The Ice Dogs/Kings game looks like the game of the week. Maybe our partners can also beat the Waves, and hopefully we pull off the upset of the #1 and go on a two game winning streak
Bears71, ever since I've been nice you don't want to come out and play. Lol
Bears71, Let me start with this, if I offended you or anyone else on this site with my joke I apologize. There was no ill will intended in regards to that comment. This is a site to have a good time on and not personally attack anyone's family.Tommy, you must be mellowing out. An apology (thank you) and the fact that you haven't puffed your chest out over the win vs. Artesia, what could possibly be next?
I had a friend thats kid plays for the Gulls. I know it was tied at the end of the 1st.
Goalie_dad, do the rankings change with the two Ducks victorys. What about the line on the Bears/O. waves game.Bears/Wave got moved to 1/28.
Bear71, maybe I will work on curing world hunger.
Bear71, damn more time for you guys to practice cause I'm rooting for you guys to win more than 2 games. I have a side bet going and the over/under is 3...You should have told your kid to let in a few more of our shots to guarantee you winning your bet then!
Does anyone have any details on the Wave/SD game last week. I was expecting to see the score closer. Did SD get outplayed or could it have gone either way? Is the new team to beat the Wave?
My mistake. I just assumed that the King parents were so obnoxious, it was them.

Jr Kings 3-1 over the Jr Gulls
If you've seen my previous post you will know that I've never claimed my son was good. He works hard and true and I'm OK with that. In regards to the A. Waves I wouldn't want my son playing for a team where the dad called the shots. But none the less good luck to your team.
How did TTB Jr. & your beloved Jr Ducks2 do yesterday against the Ice Dogs?
Nevermind, just saw the results on SCAHA, nice Win. IMO looks like there may be 4 top teams in Squirt A
If you were at the game you would've realized that the coach didn't deserve the boot. If the ref controls the game from the beginning we wouldn't have parent upset over what's going on. They need to correct the Refing issues before one of these kids gets hurt or a parent storms the ice.
The adjectives that were used towards the ref weren't appreciated, it was wrong but sometimes you just can't take anymore of that garage. It was a big game for us and a Coach's Decision.
I used language I shouldn't have. that was a type-o I meant garbage. We knew ahead of time that he wasn't going to play yesterday. It wasn't a surprise, Coach's Decision is another way of saying an internal issue needed to be addressed. Sometime kids need to learn lessons in life. We will be back on the ice this weekend in San Diego and against the Kings on the 26th.

DD, I agree and I've been on good behavior since January 1st but yesterday was a bit much. I'm even scheduling a play date with Bears71. Lol
Also considering our game was at 7:30am it would be impossible to make both games unless I owned a private helicopter which I don't considering I'm a civil servant.

BB, not trying to defend goalie_dad, I mean TTB but I do not think your facts are correct.
Looking at the boxscore, the headshot penalty you are referring to happened @ 09:50 of the 2nd
(I would screenshot pic the score sheet, but it has the athletes names on it)
Looks like goalie_dad, I mean TTB & Coach got tossed @ 2:38 & 2:37 of the 2nd.
I'm pretty sure that most parents (even TTB), myself included, would not cheer head contact of any kind

Oh hell, I'll play along.
Thank you for all your hard work goalie_dad.

I'm so glad you find us hilarious goalie_dad, I mean TTB.
Do you think you're the only crazy hockey parent in Southern California that may have grown up in The Great White North 🇨🇦?
ʒə mə suˈvjɛ̃? (je me souviens) for our English only friends, this is the motto of the province of Quebec Canada, translated means "I remember", I remember when the English used to rule us. But, let's apply to SCAHA
I remember reminders from our Squirt athletes (see what I did there? 👍)
• I'm a 9 or 10 yr old kid
• It's just a game
• Most of the coaches are just volunteers
• The officials are human
• No college scholarships will be handed out today
(Troy Youth Hockey Assoc.)
FYI, this blog is not as anonymous as you think it may be goalie_dad, I mean TTB. Don't worry, not going to post your child's club, your squirt athletes number or bring up any personal facts about you & your wife's past, actually glad you two are able to work things out. Yes, travel hockey is a small world.
Happy Valentines Day to everyone, especially "both" goalie_dad & TTB!
Francais:
S'il vous plaît n'hésitez pas à plaisanter en arrière et en avant à vous-même comme TTB & goalie_dad, je suis sûr qu'il a utilisé pour vous apporter tant de plaisir!
English:
Please, feel free to banter back and forth to yourself as TTB & goalie_dad, I'm sure it used to bring you so much enjoyment!
Remember yesterday?
No club will be mentioned, no child jersey number but glad all is currently working out for you?
If other CalHockey parents want to know more about this persons "backstory" please ask your San Diego area SCAHA friends or more specifically ask those same friends about Mrs. TTB, I mean Mrs goalie_dad.
You're playing with fire, hope you're smart enough to not get burned!
LET'S FINISH THIS POST ON A POSITIVE NOTE, PLEASE!
Safe travels to all athletes + their families as we travel to numerous different tournaments this Presidents Day Weekend.
And may all Squirt A athletes also return healthy and injury free for the last 2 regular season games and their upcoming playoffs!
MY APOLOGY, you never did say you were the one who was ejected, it was said about you and I did make that assumption, I'm sorry please forgive me. That being said, there are other things that you allow us "fellow parents to go with" that we know are not true, however, per others request, I will send you direct messages.
BB, asked why I got kicked out originally. I didn't say I did. Also KDTK also assumed it was me that got kicked out so I went with it. I wasn't the parent that was asked to leave.
if you are one of the many (me included) that sometimes just can't help but yell at the refs or likes to yell words of encouragement to their kids (move your feet), best thing to do is never sit in the bleachers. stay down low behind the glass!

He did NOT use any profanity & claims he has video evidence. He was very frustrated with both officials and now per SCAHA #17.12 d) will miss his sons Presidents Day Tournament games, final SCAHA games and some playoffs.If this version of the facts is accurate, with video proof, seems like a 30-day suspension is excessive. No parent penalty/suspension shows on SCAHA page currently for 2/12/17 game. I assume your "embarrassed, humiliated & repentant dad" is challenging the suspension, and was able to enjoy some Presidents' Day Hockey in person, as opposed to via FaceTime.
Like Disco Dan, this suspended dad is usually very appreciative and respectful to the officials, but WOW, lesson learned! Personally I am very glad that I don't think I've ever yelled at this official, because truth be told I also appreciate & respect the officials BUT have said ALOT more, even used expletives while telling them where to go and how fast to get there
CONGRATULATIONS!

"TTB, your trolling needs work. You ain't no Zamboni Driver. RIP, Zam."
Truer words have never been spoken BB, RIP Zamboni Driver! Rumor has it that though that ZD's "wonderful words of wisdoms & misspellings" are now being presented to us under the screen name Kangaroo Jack.
Also, your assumption is correct. Suspension was challenged and sentence reduced to 1 game.
TTB, I mean GD, he also mentioned to me that your team went 3-0 in their SD tournament, scoring 29 goals while allowing only 3, yet TTB Jr & his teammates were only offered a 3rd vs 4th Bronze Game, at the SD Tournament. Making 3 SCAHA Squirt A teams 3-0 in that Tournament, tiebreaker was Goals Against. 1st place - Jr Gulls allowing only 1 & 2nd place - Wave allowing only 2, getting them into the Championship Game.
Great Job TTB Jr., I mean GD Jr., who also won their Bronze Game 7-0. Meaning TTB Jr, I mean GD Jr and the '07 goalie allowed only 3 goals against in 4 games. The Champion Jr Gulls allowed 4 goals in 4 games and The Wave allowed only 8 goals through 4 games, impressive.
GD, I mean TTB Jr. great job with your picks though & agreed, GREAT JOB SoCal Squirt A teams!
Its like.. when you watch a train wreck... and you know you should run in and help out.. but you can't stop watching it.. waiting for it...
Maybe more like.. back in 2nd grade.. when you knew Jessie was about to get his clock cleaned.. but you kept watching.. cheering.. waiting....
The personal shit needs to stop. Seriously. It isn't hockey related.. its uncomfortable to read.. and its downright childish. Im not a moderator here.. but I know they read all of the BS that everyone on here posts. I would love if they stepped in and asked.. however pointedly they assume to do it.. that the childish crap stop. Keep it classy. Keep it hockey related. I'd rather this NOT turn into an episode of Maury.
Goalie Dad.. Any lines on the games this weekend? Thanks!
...wait. Maybe I should say ... Mr. Goalie Dad. ... nevermind.

There was a board that did what you are suggesting, it was called SoCalHockey, they monitored the boards and gave 30 day suspensions....the board ended up sucking, that is why this board was created, I also think the posts get odd once in a while, but if they sensor anything but names and numbers of kids, this board will turn into what it was created to replace.
