Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

OnMAA

Vort Doen.....Heija Heija Heija
Coming up in a week or so.....Looking forward to it.

Any previews on Rosters anyone ?.
 
Re: Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

Any attempt to "stabilize" the competition this year? Or will be reading the usual complaints of many non competitive / lopsided games?

Edit: A wild guess would be there will probably be a couple / few stacked rosters...ya think?

Oh yeah. And of course there will be teams playing way over their head, just happy to be getting the crap kicked out of them in front of college coaches.

Much more importantly, at what rink and at what time will there be a Whoopie Pie bake-off?

Anyone know any unofficial rosters or partial rosters. Thinking about taking in some games. I would like to see a couple of good games rather than a College Team playing a group of 15 & 16 year olds.

Any help would be appreciated.

If you don't want to gamble on which games to see, go on Sunday, when the elimination / playoff rounds take place. If you're looking to see particular players however, this might not work, as their team may be eliminated by then.
 
Re: Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

Rosters are not posted yet, but the shell has been created. Check back here over the next couple of days. Click on the drop down box to see teams other than the Alliance Bulldogs. They appear first by default since the teams are listed in alphabetical order.

The Navigation can get tricky, but you can also make your way from here to see schedules, standings, statistics, etc.

That would be us all from Texas :)

Women's Chowder Cup Schedules

Takes a while to scroll through, primary sort is by day, then by rink, then by time, and it includes all AA and A level games.

I found myself having to print it out and carefully read through hard copy to find the games I was interested in.

Not an ideal example of best practice web page building, but for a simple, fun, three day summer tournament I suppose it's sufficient.

My answer to clarifying the online verison that is to cut and paste the whole thing into a spread sheet and re-arrange/filter based on rink/category/group/time etc.

I think you have my e-mail....E-mail me and I'll fire it off to you.

P.S.....Only have it at home, so won't be able to send to you until later tonight.

NO BOSTON JR. BRUINS anywhere on the list of AA teams in this year's tournament...very surprising! They were a serious Chowder Cup playoff contender every year in the AA division.
 
Re: Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

My guess is that the USA Selects will be tough to beat again this year! I've heard they have another pretty good team gathered for the event. Are there others expected to be strong contenders?

I'd say Celine, Assabet Juniors, Global Selects and Base Hockey have pretty deep squads, based on the posted rosters I've seen sofar.

The Minnesota crew is normally strong as well.

Why aren't there any A teams posted?

I think the A bracket is not what we normally think of in terms of A. There are some good teams with good players in A -- take USA Selects for example. Half there team it seems is already committed D-1 or getting close to it. There are no college players in A though due to the age limitation.
 
Re: Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

You may want to check your facts. The A division does allow for 1991 born players, some of whom played in college last year. I'm aware of at least two D1 players who were freshmen last year, playing in the A division this coming weekend.
 
Re: Mid Summer Classic - Chowder

Several of them are. Some AA teams have not been posted yet either. Lots more rosters are posted today then yesterday, so it must be a work in progress item.
