Well the youth participation numbers prove that statement wrong. Hockey is one of the fastest growing sports and the stats, not anecdotal evidence, proves that.

Forgot about hockey in the desert. NHL to Vegas, AZ State going D1 hockey. UNLV and Arizona on the verge too. Even have heard that Kansas and a few Big Ten schools will be starting programs.

No denying soccer is growing but my point is other sports are growing too. I'm using hockey as an example since it was said soccer will overtake the NHL, but lacrosse and other sports are growing too.

Alabama's team is wanting to make the jump as well, but there's still only 3 places in the state that you can play ice hockey that I know of.
