Who goes where?
Who is losing their top players?
Who is chasing brick and going to Marlies?
JRC losing their top player
WW losing a couple ? Where are they going.
TRW is all OMHA

MHR = TMZ

Are they the top kids from YSE and the other centre going to TRW? Or are they the second tier kids whose parents think they should have had more ice..

TRW are getting half the Ajax/pickering team, and 4 forwards from Northshore.

Sounds like they will be just as bad as this year.

Someone players are in for a complete surprise when they realize what this was all about. $$$$$
This is the first crack in the friendship group. its all about to implode soon

1. TM
2. JRC
3. DMF
4. REPS
5. NATS
6. NYR
7. TT
8. REB
9. VK
10. SENS
11. MM
12. TRW

What tryouts? Any team with spots this late in the game is at the bottom.

1. DMF
2. JRC
3. TM
4. NAT
5. REP
6. VK
7. REB
8. TT
9. MM
10. SEN
11. RW
12. NYR

Any team with spots left obviously has been through this before. There’s always movement after the brick. This is where egos clash and parents get butt hurt.

It’s always better to ride a short bench of horses than to pick up a few donkeys just to fill a team.

Guest wrote: ↑Mon Apr 21, 2025 1:51 pm No drama, no bias — just a real take from someone coaching in the loop. I don’t have a kid in the mix, and I’m not here to push anyone’s narrative. This is how I see the teams stacking up heading into the season:

1. TM – The Brick pulls in U11. No surprise here — high-end skill across the board.
2. JRC – Long-term vision. Some kids left unhappy with structure, but the group that stayed will be stronger for it.
3. DMF – Picked up legit talent. Big question mark is whether RE can manage the egos, especially around the first line.
4. REB – Sleeper pick. Strong additions and very disciplined coaching staff.
5. NATS – Built for when contact hits, but we’re not there yet. HC is more focused on off-ice chatter with “prospects” than on development.
6. NYR – AK has deep OMHA ties through Bulldogs and his camps and a solid reputation. Attracted the most OMHA replacements only next to TRW. TBD.
7. TT – Total wildcard. Could finish much higher… or lower. Belissimo is unproven at this age group, and the imports from JRC, NYR, etc., aren’t game-changers. TBD.
8. VK – Strong overall program, but parent interference and immature coaching are holding them back.
9. REPS – One of the best team cultures around. MC brings a pro vibe, but with only 3 roster changes, they are likely to fall by overlooking the OMHA and other kids that are developing faster than their roster.
10. SENS – Quality coaches, but recruiting continues to be their Achilles' heel.
11. TRW – Ambitious attempt to become an OMHA force, but execution has been poor.
12. MM – Tough road ahead. Parent group lacks cohesion, and AE burned a lot of bridges with how he handled spring skates.

We would all love to know who you coach with , but again you will never say, im going to go with TM lol. Buckle up buddy your in for a long season. As a parent on one of these teams im going to save this and repost it at the mid point and year end to see how well you know the age group.

I bet you are very far off on all of this and will be coaching house league
