Six Roseville C Squirt boys were supposed to play in the youth event for the U.S. Pond Hockey Championship on Lake Nokomis on January 24.
Unfortunately, the event was cancelled due to rain.
Nevertheless, the boys had their picture taken with the real Stanley Cup.
Carver Martin, Adam King, Ryan O'Neill, Ryan Petersen, Jacob Nentwig, and Jake Henthorne were all smiles.

It took a total TEAM effort for the B Peewees to win the championship at the IGH Power Play Tournament. For their first game the Raiders faced Tartan. Roseville finished the game with a 6-1 victory. Goals were scored by Ryan Novotny, Jeremy Suciu, Matt Anderson, Reilly Keenan, and Drew Liberkowski(2). Assists went to Nick Feero, Matt Anderson(2), Conner Marks(2), Reilly Keenan, Sam Radovich and Drew Liberkowski. Van Olesen stopped all but one shot.
The second game, Roseville met Crow River for the first time this season. The game ended with a score of 5-0 with Luke Podobinski earning the Shutout. Goals were scored by Casey Goodmanson(2), Josh Arnold, Ryan Novotny and Jeremy Suciu. Assists went to Jack Elfstrom(2), Griffin Malone, and Sam Radovich.
For the championship game, the Raiders faced a tough Eastview team that had won their previous game in the tournament by 9 goals against Burnsville. The TEAM was up to the challenge and ended on top 3-2 to take home the hardware. Goals were scored by Casey Goodmanson(2) and Sam Radovich with an assist by Jeremy Suciu. Ben Flug, Dylan Barrett and Andrew Cepress were all key to the teams strong defense.

| | | | posted 01/20/2010 Attention all RAYHA Members!
Have you ever wished there was a second sheet of ice available in Roseville for our teams to use?
Now is the time to speak your mind!
The Roseville Parks and Recreation Department and the Community Advisory Team invite you to share your thoughts about the future of Roseville and how parks and recreation programs and facilities best fit that future.
Stop by the Roseville Skating Center, pick up a questionnaire and let them know what you think! Questionnaires are located right inside the doors near the Parks & Rec display. You can turn in the questionnaire to any rink employee or send it directly Roseville Parks & Rec.
Or you can click here to submit a questionnaire online.
This planning process becomes the reference document for the next 20-25 years. If you would like to see a second sheet of ice in the city of Roseville, now is the time to speak up so it is identified as a need for the future!
The planning process needs input from the entire community; please share this information with your neighbors and friends and ask them to fill out a questionnaire too.
Click here to see the timeline of events for the planning process and to find out when you can attend community meetings and planning sessions.

| | | | posted 10/21/2009 Hockey and the Flu season
With the start of the hockey season coinciding with the start of Flu season, here’s a few tips to keep your players healthy.
1. Frequently remove your players’ mouth guard and wash it. There are lots of crevices in the mouth guards that can hold germs.
2. Players, if you place your helmet on the ground, make sure the mouth guard is inside the helmet.
3. Coaches, remember to thoroughly wash the water bottles frequently. Even though the players’ mouths may not touch it, their hands do. Many sicknesses are airborne as well.
4. Players if you use community water bottles, please make sure you never drink directly from the water bottle. Consider bringing your own water bottle instead of sharing. Coaches if you provide team water bottles, please make sure to sterilize them as frequently as possible during the season.
5. Frequently wash your hands.
6. Parents/Guardians, check your players’ bag. Frequently wash jerseys, and other equipment as able. Also remember to air equipment out between practices and games. Damp and moldy equipment can also make you sick, and give you skin rashes.
7. Players, if you are not feeling well, call your coach and let him/her know that you are staying home. One sick player can knock out a whole team.
8. If you are sick and have been running a fever, don’t return to the rink until 24 hours after your fever is gone without fever-reducing medication.
For more information about seasonal and H1N1 flu, visit the Minnesota Dept. of Health http://www.health.state.mn.us/divs/idepc/diseases/flu/basics/index.html
Stay Well, and Play Hard!
