I know Michael Hollander, but not as a coach.

Sometimes these coaches carry unresolved frustrations or insecurities into their coaching, which can create a toxic environment for players and parents. Document specific issues & gather concrete examples of toxic behaviour, whether it’s poor communication, favouritism, or inappropriate treatment of players.

I agree with this statement. And at the forefront and a great example are Coaches yelling at these kids. It is a clear case of the coach carrying baggage for such behavior to exist. If your sons math teacher screamed at your son over an algebra mistake youd be at that school raising hell.
A coach is there to instruct, teach and lead by example.
Hockey is toxic by nature.

Good thing you added your 2 cents last year to get a great coach canned. Stay off the board idiot.

The other teams D hits BL into their own goalie. It’s a 2 min penalty at most. It’s about as soft as giving kids 7 games for calling a kid a pu$$y

Haters going to Hate. Just be glad 93 wasn't on the ice to make your kid look bad lol.

Scouts know that he has talent, he just has no control. This is sad and unfortunate

Scouts love that kid.

His mom will pull the ole Leg Opener.

Scouts love that kid. I don't get it

you dont get why a scout would love a kid who has this level of true blue raw talent and resiliancy?, and who does so entirely on his own merrit without beign bought and paid for?
ive had my eye on this kid for years, watching him develop and grow. This kid has more grit, tenacity and resilianncy than 99% of the kids in this entire league. Hes a total throwback to when you couldnt even think about stepping on the ice in major junior without raw grit like he has.. now we just make up for the lack of it in our beta kids with money. scouts are tired of seeing it, organizations and team managemt are tired of having it and its time we start looking for players like BL because were going to have to lean on him to pull the weight and make up for your kids inadequacies. BTW, all the scouts are wise to whats going on, we know how many desperate attempts are being made at blocking his progress. frankly its becoming very obvious and very pathetic, and in a very short time the crow will be coming home to roost for most of you and your beta kids as they finally realize its over for you and just begining for him

I watched it as well, without bias as I did'nt even know what the final call was. I watched it half dozen times with colleagues and when we were all told what the call was we simultaneously spit our coffee out.. sad and pathetic call by that official. This league is getting softer, and more corrupt by the hour. people calling that kid a head hunter, the only real head hunters seem to be these officials

The reality is the kid is a first round draft pick. If parents can’t see that I don’t really know what to say. It should be obvious if you have any clue about hockey
