don’t play in another youth league at whatever level.
Right now, St. Louis (Maryland Heights) & the Blues are building a massive 4 sheet complex with surrounding hotels, etc to host local, regional & national youth tournaments year round.
Chesterfield’s new larger Complex to replace their old one is underway too. Then, there are all the other rinks. Ice time is a big commodity in larger markets, especially ones booming like STL!
When the Stars came to DFW, it took onky a couple years & “StarCenters” started going up all over the Metroplex & youth/HS hockey exploded. There were HS programs before that, but nothing like now.
NFL can’t do anything like that. NHL engagement is unmatched.
