I grew up and played in the hockey machine town of Hingham. There's a micro economy of hockey equipment/time/training school spent by parents it's foolish.

Education is second fiddle when you're on the hockey team. Do you know what 5am practices do to a teenager who needs sleep.

If you want to have hockey schools in the ISL leagues great. Get the pro teams to sponsor the kids. Having a public school team that's like a college team is a little ridiculous.
