Imagine growing up playing hockey with all your friends and when you finally get to high school, you find out your high school doesn’t have a team. Hockey in Utah is unsanctioned by the UHAA.

It's the question most parents are faced with at some point in their children's lives - how do I pick the right sport/coach for my child? 

For the past several years, the Affiliated High School Hockey Playoffs have been basically the same - but this year things are changing.

Last week Halloran's name was once again listed as one of the top NCAA players as a nominee for the Hobey Baker Award.

The Vegas Golden Knights have fired coach Gerard Gallant and named Peter DeBoer as his replacement.

The pressure is on former Utah Grizzlie goalie Mike Smith as the Oilers look to him to take their team to the NHL Playoffs.

The Utah Grizzlies are hot and playing extremely entertaining hockey right now.

At that time, Utah only had two full-time hockey rinks and under 8,000 registered hockey players and officials in the entire Rocky Mountain Region.

There are no locker rooms for hockey, but there are boards and that is a step up from the early days, which is a leap forward for roller hockey in Utah.

A few years ago, Las Vegas Golden Knights majority owner Bill Foley said he wanted the Knights AHL affiliate to be in Salt Lake City.
