    Hey Adam,

    "A new reader suggests the rink is not up to par."

    Hi just some guy,

    You may have some valid points, but this is not the best way to start with your very first post on IHC.

    Please reconsider.

    I won't comment on this post in anyway other than saying that this is what's wrong with inline hockey. The players in the same city are unable to put together the best possible team, because someone has a problem with someone else, the rink, the owner, etc. I am neutral, like Switzerland, and have no problems with anyone that I know of, I just want to be able to play some good hockey again. I know most of the Tour Rebels play high level junior ice hockey, so I doubt they would be available to play AIHL, but if any of the other guys want to try out, come do it. I'm sure you'll make the team and why not try and make the best possible team Vegas has to offer?

    just some guy,

    You are a part of the problem, not a part of the solution.

    If you can't say something constructive, you will be banned, and soon.

    I will no longer allow these message boards to be taken over by anonymous posters who don't have the courage of their convictions.

    Sincerely,

    Richard Graham

    newly registered anonymous posters get deleted when then don't actually bring anything productive to the table...

    I played some tournaments at LVRHC a few years back and had nothing but good experiences, things might have changed but it sounds like this is a personal problem...

    Re: Its Official, Vegas is in!!

    In response to just some guy...

    I am new to Vegas hockey and I am aware of the best players not being totally available - I myself would push them to forward their ice careers as well....I will however tell you that I have four current and recently former pro guys that have played RHI and NARCh Pro that will be a nice part of our organization...There are also two players who have moved out here recently that have past XIHL and MLRH experience, so I am worried about being the best but I think we will have a solid team that will shake heads, but I think saying we'd win the whole thing would be pointless - We will have tryouts adn who knows if there are any diamonds in the rough

    I encourage you to email me personally as maybe I do not know everything going on out here...I have seen many of the UNLV guys and they are talented and deserve a chance to play at this level, so please get in touch

    In response to MTour71 - Yes I am an official that works for NARCh and in no way do choose AAU over USAIL, NARCh over any other....nor will I open that can of worms, I would have gone with the PIHA, but there are no teams closer than 8hours - I am simply helping our sport grow and will do it by any means needed - I will still maintain my good friendship and working relationships with NARCh and everyone else, for me nothing has chacnged and I will be the same guy

    In response to Richard - What a story to dig out!

    EVERYTHING TO BETTER OUR SPORT and anyone interested in getting in touch.....

    Re: Its Official, Vegas is in!!

    Just some guy, why don't we start off with a name. Mine is Mike Downey. If you would rather be private, feel free to email me at [email protected] I assume you play for UNLV, which is fine, they are a solid team and I respect them, and I even told Stio when we talked about the AIHL team it would help if we could get some of their guys on it. I know UNLV has had their problems in the past with the rink and owner, so I knew it would be questionable. I don't understand why you say all the players are garbage. I can state that I have personally played higher then Narch Gold, and I know of 2 other guys that have played Narch Pro. I don't know everyones resume, these are just other east coast guys like myself that I've played against. If we can get committments from the right players, we can definitely be competitive in the AIHL. So other teams don't worry, Stio won't put a product on the court that is going to get smashed every game. Just some guy I would really like to talk to you, email me. I would like some UNLV guys to come and try out and be part of the team. I've been trying to get something like this going for a few years now, and can't we all just get along. Or at least represent Vegas.

    Hi Adam,

    Hope all is well out west. Good luck with the new team and for any players interested in playing in Las Vegas, you should all know that you have a 1st class hockey guy and an even better person running the organization. Good luck to you all this season.

    Just some guy,

    You've made the same point now in 4 seperate posts. You say that you are stating facts and that may or may not be true, however I would say that at this point you have an agenda and you are merely stating your opinion. There's really no need to spread any more venom regarding this subject.

    Here's an idea, if you are completely opposed to playing at the rink that has been mentioned, perhaps you could start your own team with the players that you speak of at another rink, therefore giving Las Vegas 2 teams.

    What I can tell you is that if you choose not to play for the team mentioned in this thread, it's truly a shame that you won't have the chance for play for such a nice guy like Adam Stio. I can assure you that his dedication to this sport will likely lead to a competitive team that everyone will enjoy playing on.

    Good luck to you all regardless of the choice that you make.
