      it depends on the team. Some US teams would beat the canadiens.

        But would you want your kid forgoing a year of college to play Jr hockey - assuming he's not at pro-level potential? I know some players who have walked from college offers to go play for another year. Granted we're not a hockey family but I can't get my head around that one. How many of those kids will ever make it to the pros, especially when the NHL can bring in international players?

          Who thought soccer parents where the most whacked out?

            If you have to pay to play Jr Hockey you are wasting your time. US Junior Hockey is a joke. Like comparing A ball to MLB.......

              Hockey parents definitely take the prize

                Both are pretty bad. I remember my kids HS coach being soundly criticized by parents as he guided them to a State Championship. The critics? Parents of 4th line players - who else?
