Bear71,


Edited for your pleasure. And maybe you think math is hard since you think Vacaville will only determine the bottom of the flight. There is a race for the top with 3 teams. Would not count any of them out. Mathematically speaking, any one of them could end up on top after the last CAHA weekend.


Empire is relevant as they will also be in the playoffs. Maybe just an off weekend for them?


Not sure the ref reference about the wave/dog game. Didn't see it so I guess you will have to fill us in on that.


GSE looked good this weekend so must give them credit. No one on this board seems to show them any love but they have some talented players.


You sound a little angry. Is it because break is over? Chill, lots of hockey to come sir.

Sorry Bear, but the refs didn’t decide the ID1/Wave game.  The late penalties were obvious calls that  left a kid down for several minutes.  They were bad penalties to boot, taken deep in the Wave’s own offensive zone late in a tie game. ID1 then converted on the power play; frankly, the Wave were fortunate that they weren’t flagged for levelling the kid who scored on that power play.  As far as ID1 being the number 2 team in Flight 1, I am not so sure about that.  All season long I would have said it was a coin flip between the Kings and Dogs, and now GSE and the Gulls seem to be putting it together at the right time.  Both upcoming trips to Vacaville should be interesting.

FourthA,


Could not agree with you more about Vacaville. Really good teams finding their stride at the right time of the season. Going to make for a really good finish followed by playdowns.


I would also add that Kings1 won't be losing 2 in a row again. That is a solid team and I am sure they will re-group and be back on the roll in Buffalo next week. No doubt playing that competition will benefit them as it does all teams that dare to step out of the CA bubble. 

Any other teams heading to MLK tourneys?


Heard a rumor the Wave applied for 06 AAA next year. Perhaps planning to combine the better 06s from their A team and their AA team. Any truth to this?

Defenders,


Pretty bold statement that NO ONE from the A team would play for that team. I think this is the time of year people start "feeling around" for next season. There are very few teams that actually stay together from year to year. VERY FEW.


As for coaching, I have NO idea. I don't know if the rumor is true or not. That is why I posed the question. Anyone?

Defenders,


Since you are obviously a Wave parent you would know best. If it is just a rumor than nothing to freak out about. You are right about kids making the jump from A to AAA but it has been done. Pretty sure the 06 AAA Ducks have an A goalie from last year. This is not an unheard of concept.

HockeyDad, Ice Dogs 1 is headed to Boston for MLK weekend.  Good luck in Buffalo.

4th A-


Boston has A LOT of 06 teams attending. It looks like 3 divisions worth. Assuming Elite is the highest? And AAA is the lowest? Why are Ducks 1 two divisions below Dogs. Seems odd since they play close games. Or are the Ducks desperate for a tourney win and the Dogs are just looking for some good competition? Or maybe I am incorrect as to how the teams are divided. I did a quick glance with no research so who knows.


Either way, good luck to both teams!

From what I heard, the tournament used records and my hockey rankings to decide which division to assign teams to.  Dogs are currently ranked 4th in the country, and Ducks 118.  I think it goes Elite, AAA, and then Select.

Congrats to Dogs 1 and Kings 1 for their MLK results; each moved up in the rankings, #3 and #5 respectively. Unfortunately for Ducks 1 they moved down based on their results.

Congrats for the Kings moving up despite being on a 7 game losing streak.  Congrats to the Ice Dogs for actually winning 1 at the tourney, while also losing 4 of their last 5.

What is really unfortunate is that the SoCal folks who went and bought Rams car wraps and became fans after that blown call will get to enjoy the Super Bowl on AM Sports 1140 while driving back to LA on I-5 from Vacaville.  PSA: There are reasonably priced rooms available in Solano County so please don't drink and drive!

PuckMonster,

7 game losing streak against some of the BEST teams in the nation...I will take it.


NotFromSoCal,


Hopefully some of the families were smart enough to fly. Unless you got stuck with the 1:30 pm game. Ouch!

PM, it is accurate that ID1 went 1-3 (all close games) playing at the elite level in Boston, but they have not lost 4 out of their last 5.  To find that fourth loss you have to go back to early December when they lost in OT in the finals in Vegas to the Golden Knights.  So it’s more like they have lost 4 of their last 14 games....
