Hockey season is long over with even three-on-three fun leagues wrapped up. Time to think about registration. teams . . . and hockey moms, who all must be calmed down by now.
One could write a book about raging hockey moms, including an case from Connecticut, which shows our American friends are embracing all aspects of minor hockey behaviour, including embarrassing mommas.
Then there's this 2008 case from Rockland County, U.S.A., where the hockey mom thought she was supporting her team by hosting parties for teen players.
Or from small town Ontario, a little hair pulling in Mildmay, where it was all a mistake as the mom beat the charge.
Or Timmins, Ont., last season where a mom was charged after confronting an 11-year-old player.
And of course, there's the Canadian coffee case where a hockey mom/team owner from Oshawa, Ont., was ordered by a judge to perform 100 hours of community service after tossing a cup of coffee at a player, according to a report on CTV News.

I hope it was arena coffee and not Tim Hortons.
Sometimes, hockey moms behave like groupies as was the case when some average-looking soccer player in Los Angeles arrived to sign up his kids for hockey. Anyone heard of David Beckham? I think having Justin Bieber at a Beckham kid's birthday party must have included a pep talk about the best youth sport in the world.

The behaviour of hockey moms has not escaped the attention of reality TV producers. Cineflix Productions, the company behind Nothing Personal, Conviction Kitchen and Canadian Pickers, might have something up its sleeve. Blogger Hockey Mom in Canada is reporting Cineflix is looking for hockey moms for a show proposal.
It's got potential, doesn't it?
