MHS Boys Hockey will once again participate in the RELAY FOR LIFE fundraiser.  This year we have renamed the team in honor of 11 year old Maggie Evans and her on-going, courageous battle with thyroid cancer.  Maggie is the sister of one of our graduating players, DJ Evans.

All MHS Hockey Players are asked to join us for this important event.  Simply Click on this Link and you will be directed to the Maggie's Team webpage where you can register by making a minimum $10 donation.  This is a great opportunity to show your support for Maggie, your team spirit and your Hockey Program's strong commitment to community service. All incoming Freshman are welcome to participate as well.

All players are also asked to send an email to your friends and relatives, asking for their generous donations to this great cause.

The event is Friday June 21st from 5:00pm to 11:00pm at Pembroke High School.  All players should plan on showing up to support Maggie’s Team by walking laps around the track.  

If anyone would like luminary bags to sell as a way to increase the fundraising, please contact Maggie's Team organizer Josie Carbone.  Supporters can donate $1 or $100, receive a bag, and decorate it however they would like to honor a survivor and/or family member. Parent volunteers are greatly appreciated as well.

Click Here to see a video about Phil Houlsey on Playing High School or Junior's Debate

With scores of scouts in Blaine at the National Sports Center 40 miles away, Phil Housley and Ken Pauly discuss the state of hockey and it's under 20 players, particularly why staying in high school makes the most sense. Houlsley, who recently coached team USA to the Junior world championship, has a great perspective on the topic. Besides winning the gold medal as the head coach of team USA, he also coaches the Stillwater High School hockey team. He also has played Junior Hockey after finishing his high school playing days with the South Saint Paul Packers.

Pauly, who is the head coach of the defending state high school champion Benilde St. Margaret's Red knights has been involved in coaching for decades. Both coaches believe that for most players, high school hockey is where they should develop and play, as it offers a special memory that lasts a lifetime. The interview took place just before the two legend coaches would face one another in Stillwater, as the Ponies and the Red Knights would play their last regular season game.

The topic is a hot subject, as less than an hour away in Blaine Minnesota, the Tier 1 Elite Hockey League was having it inaugural Playoff Championship, with scores of NHL, Division 1 college and Junior scouts from Canada and across the United States in attendance. The tournament featured U16 and U18 players who are "all in", with fee's ranging from 10,000 to over 20,000 per player per club. With the teams playing from coast to coast and border to border, the league plays 60+ games and commitments including moving away from home at an early age to chase their dream of one day playing professional hockey.

Please see the letter of appreciation below that Minnesota Hockey recently received from Jack Connolly, Duluth native and 2012 Hobey Baker Award winner.

Dear Minnesota Hockey:

I recently had the honor and privilege of being named the 2012 Hobey Baker Award Recipient as the top men's college hockey player. Wow! Just typing that sentence and reading it over and over causes all kinds of wonderful emotions and thoughts in my head. But more so than anything, it makes me realize how fortunate I am to be from Minnesota, especially Duluth.

I put my skates on for the first time in the warming house at the Duluth Heights outdoor rink when I was four. And some of the other four year old kids that were putting their skates on for the first time next to me in the warming house that winter are still some of my best friends today, 18 years later. We grew up on the outdoor ice rinks and then eventually the indoor ice rinks in the Duluth area. My friends and I are extremely lucky to have been coached by so many wonderful people who instilled into all of us a passion and respect for the game. I was fortunate enough to play in the state high school hockey tournament and eventually play for my hometown Bulldogs, being part of a memorable team that won the school's first National Championship. But it all started with the foundation that was built for me by the community hockey system that Minnesota has.

In recent years, I've been able to play on teams with players from all over North America. After talking about our childhood hockey experiences, I quickly realized that hockey elsewhere is not quite like hockey in Minnesota. As a mite and squirt playing for Duluth Heights, all I wanted to do was beat the other Duluth neighborhood teams including Piedmont Heights, Glen Avon, Portman, Congdon Park, Woodland, etc. Then at the PeeWee and Bantam level I played for Duluth East, which increased my list of rivals to places such as Cloquet, Grand Rapids, and Hibbing. Then came high school hockey at Duluth Marshall and games against Hermantown. The only thing better than a high school game against Hermantown was a win against Hermantown! All of this was done with my friends. All of this was done while living in the same house where I'd fall asleep as a four year old dreaming about hockey. All of this was done while continuing to play soccer at a high level throughout high school. No, I didn't join an all-star team of 10-year old kids in the winter and go to tournaments in Quebec City or Buffalo. I played with kids from across the alley and down the street and a big road trip was a tournament in Coleraine. I didn't move away at age 14 to pursue my hockey dreams. Instead I stayed home to play the game I love with my friends, and had a blast doing it!

I did develop. I developed as a hockey player and as a person. And for that I want to thank everyone who is involved in hockey in Minnesota. The coaches at Duluth Heights that picked me up when I fell as a four year old. The people connected with Minnesota Hockey that oversee all of the community associations in the state. I truly appreciate all that you have done for me and for other young hockey players in Minnesota. I encourage you to keep doing it because hockey in Minnesota works and is indeed special. From the bottom of my brand new Hobey Baker award, thank you!!

With Thanks,

Jack Connolly

It is never too early to start to plan for college tuition. The Marshfield Friends of Hockey awards scholarships to deserving players. The criteria for the award includes preparing an essay that describes the lesson that the player has learned by playing on the team, it also includes being an active member in the fund-raising, participation in the community service projects, and being a team player. Please keep the requirements in mind as the year rolls along and the fund-raising events and community service projects are announced. The specific criteria and deadline for the essay will be available at a later date.
