WHY THEY'RE AWESOME
From brand-new skaters to seasoned hockey enthusiasts who grew up on
skates, the Edgcumbe Hockey Association in Saint Paul is a home for all players.
"We don't turn anyone away," said Edgcumbe Hockey Association
President Dan Muccio.
Through his 30 years with the association and a decade serving as its pres-
ident, Muccio has witnessed numerous players experience and embrace the
unique culture Edgcumbe offers.
"We can only play at the lowest level offered by Minnesota Hockey,"
Muccio said, noting the program uses that limitation to its advantage by
offering the same development focused environment, but at a lower cost and
commitment level than most hockey associations in the metro area.
"Over the years, we've had kids who have played at other associations
throughout the Twin Cities that have come to us that have maybe been
burnt out."
It's an approach that has created a new wave of enthusiasm for hockey in
the neighborhoods of St. Paul.
