Week #9 Rankings are released with only a couple minor changes of note out there, but first let me start with an apology. Last Wednesday we had an outage. Many of you never noticed it. Some of you couldn't visit the website until after lunch or early evening. A few of you took a day or more to reach the website successfully. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We are working on some upgrades that should prevent this from happening again.

This week we have updated Atom (squirt) and Peewee Alliance (MHAO) team classifications based upon the mid-season adjustment by the league. A number of teams have been reclassified as AA. Congrats to those who earned the right to be called AA.

As we enter High School Hockey season in the US, I want to remind everyone that we are still in need of volunteers for many of the high school divisions out there so please don't hesitate to take a look and see if you can help. More information can be found on the Report Scores page or HERE.

One last item. Tonight, the Benefit for Matt Sorisho will be held at Compuware Arena in the Detroit area put on by Hockey has Heart. Please check them out (CLICK HERE) and support in whatever way possible.
