MNS- keeping 90% of the kids, but waiting if someone from AAA decides to join them
VP- already lost 2-3 kids to bottom end AAA and expect to find cover from VR. Parents are slowly getting frustrated with lack of development.
MB- everyone is happy with everything. The coach is looking to cut 3-5 weakest kids from various positions, keep 11 in the team and add 1-2 very strong kids to the roster.
FT- small changes are possible
VR- super active, looking for kids everywhere from A to AAA in OMHA, trying to attract a new goalie or 2 from AAA, strengthen defence and forwards. Will lose 1-4 kids to either AAA and VP.
TW, ST- under huge risk of being cannibalized by bottom AAA and to 5 AA teams. Will almost certainly loose their top forwards, kids from Jets and A will fill empty spots. It's understandable in case of ST, while kids from TW would benefit if they stay together for another season.
TE- will attract top 4 cuts, if they need them
DD- are searching for ways to improve, but the pool of kids who want to join DD is not huge.
HVS, WML, MJ and MT are not very interesting
Not too many rumours come from the East.
NYK will cut the weakest, NT- stable as usual, SIR and WHGH may get stronger next season.

Re: 2015 AA
Applewood gang got lucky that coach poofed these other kids out of thin air or wherever and convinced them to come join losing gang, its a gift I admit.Guest wrote: ↑Mon Feb 24, 2025 7:45 pm The posts pretending to be a parent on MNS are comical.
Joking aside just in terms of development there hasnt been a better team this year, credit where it is due.

Save your $80 they charge for a birthday skate or tryout. Their teams are made. They are just fundraising at this point…Guest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 6:05 pmThinking of trying out this year on a AAA team, I dont think there is that much difference yet at 10Guest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 5:52 pmThey played in Tier 1 U9 and were very successful and 90% of team stayed together so there is a development problem.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 10:20 amTE is strange- I've seen them play really well (could be a top team) and very poorly.

Re: 2015 AA
$80 is steep but if you can afford it think about going to one to let your kid skate with top players to see how they stack up and also to potentially lower the nerves for when you seriously tryoutGuest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 9:31 am Save your $80 they charge for a birthday skate or tryout.

He went. He was skating with other double AA kids and AAA castaways that were also there to fundraiser. I wish the 80 dollars was put towards a nice steak.

Re: 2015 AA
The biggest secret to MNS isn't the HC, it's the assistant coach (dad of #9 on defence, not their best player but once he develops watch out).
That guy makes it all work and has the HC looking great. If he goes, this team tumbles.
If I could get my kid on that team with that dad, I would. Yes, they play a short bench so it benefits if you aren't on the bottom of the roster but they obviously won. Regular season is no small feat and at this age playoffs are a lottery.

Re: 2015 AA
Why would you shorten the bench for 9yr olds in regular season play? Only reason would be a discipline issue otherwise makes no sense to need to win the regular season with a round robin playoff format.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2025 9:06 am The biggest secret to MNS isn't the HC, it's the assistant coach (dad of #9 on defence, not their best player but once he develops watch out).

Re: 2015 AA
well maybe not a piece of cake, I get it but it would be a good experience for both the AA kids and parents to see the level of play and set a bar for what your kid needs to do in order to get the the JRC and DMFGuest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 8:33 pmLmao ya just walk on.
