This is by far the best thread on this entire site.
Thank you OP.

OHP one for the parents of younger kids is pretty good too. But, I agree. Its lovely to see kids exercising their ability to skate elsewhere.

He hasn’t been around long enough to know any better. Should have left with all the others.

! Very rarely does an entire team not come back. This says a lot about what actually happened this season. There's gotta be truth to a lot of this thread.

it's scary to say, but this thread is ALL truth. Parent's didn't come on here to lie, they came here to vent their frustrations and to warn others.

Why is he still the coach? The board must recognize that very few from the team is returning. Or does he just point the finger at others? Try to justify his behaviour by blaming families that he claims are toxic? Are any of his coaches from last year returning?

That's exactly what MM does, point the finger and blames everyone else, he's perfect and can do know wrong. word is, NO ONE IS returning to coach with him. He recruited TF from TF hockey as his assistant.17yrd old kid, coaching U14AA with zero coaching experience. MM is going to ruin him for sure.

This is on AMHA. If only they took the survey seriously...

He’s also fishing out all the AA cuts. No one is choosing Aurora 14AA First. MM is an embarrassment to the Aurora hockey community. The amount of people laughing at him right now is absolute bliss.

Pretty common practice in hockey to recruit when you build a team. Your grasping at straws here to critique him. One of his many strengths as a coach is recognizing talent and giving kids a chance. Hopefully your kid/kids have been signed on another team to have a fresh start and you have a great 25/26 season. Time to put the MM bashing to rest.

It's not bashing when it's based on truth.

Guest wrote: ↑Wed Apr 30, 2025 9:24 pm It absolutely is bashing. You stated your opinion many times but its time to move on now. Let it go. MM is the coach for 14aa and is building his team which is none of your concern anymore.
