thes5 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 What if he's not? I can't speak for all clubs, but if we need to fill an A team and the kids available to fill need help, they usually get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Lol @ the owner's kid quitting. Why would you put your kid in that position as a parent ? What an asshole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/juniors/gabriel-sees-his-nhl-dreams-come-true/ I just love these stories. Never made a AAA team, cut every year, then ends up at a Junior 'C' camp when he's 17. 5 years later he's in the Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every kid in his spot goes through the same grind in youth, midgets, junior. They branch off in a 100 different directions, and rarely find the top.

Dunny Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Kids first game this morning. They've been on the ice 3 days a week since September. They won 26-0 lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 It's stupid. We have 2 kids that should be playing up an age level. One of them is so far advanced it's pointless to even be out there, he had 18 goals. The other had 7. They're 5 and 6 YO's so 90% of them have no idea whats going on.

Dunny Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Yeah, full ice, offsides... It's nuts. When I was 6, I actually made the Novice Rep. team (8-9 YO's) as a forward. I remember distinctly the horror I felt when I didn't understand how to change on the fly, off-sides, penalties etc etc. I played about a month and the embarrassment was so bad I became a goalie the next year, ruining my certain NHL HOF career.

And screw offsides at that age, they shouldn't even be worried about it. Sounds like you have a few cliches trying to jump from Mite hockey to the Jr ranks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Won again yesterday 18-0 lol.. Get an e-mail from manager this morning, all remaining games on schedule have been cancelled. Trying to re-schedule against some bigger towns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 We don't have a goalie. We stick a forward in net with no gear. They still can't score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I get the feeling I'm going to watch the future of women's hockey in about an hour. Daughter of former NHL'er, playing boys AAA Bantam in Saskatchewan, 5'1, 90 lbs, not only surviving but scoring against all the boys who will be WHL draft picks next year.

Playing AAA through bantams. That ending said, just like boys...it matters what they do for the NEXT 4 years (development, size, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
