One thing is for sure. They'll be hardest team to play against. win or lose, those kids are all gelled and they have a strong unity. They'll make the playoffs next year.

If we're talking about same 2015 import forward, I believe that he is staying with Reps.

I could've understood when you mentioned that the coach is good)

VK.. defence goalie wins clear cut style and profile woooooo
TM JRC OR Sensational any order
Nats Dmf Rebels Redwings any order
Titans Majors NYR Reps

Sensational good team but not in TM, VK or JRC grouping
They will battle NATS for 4th and 5th

TM have elite forwards and D, even without JL
VK have elite D and Goalie coming in, and very good but soft forwards
JRC have 1 elite forward and a couple elite D but are best coached team and forwards play hard nosed smart hockey.
NATS lost 2 best D , bringing in a good forward. Parent coaches still the issue.
SENSATIONAL work hard but just don't have the skill players -1.
Rebels improved, good coach
Titans are done...lost best D and best F.
DMF....same
rest 7 -12

my 2 cents on teams 1-8 next season below: without biases on parent coaching, etc.

TM didn't need JL to do much - Even on an off day he has a goal while the rest all contribute. Shows you how a team plays a team game even on their not so stronger days. So if he moves up a year, its like moving from HL to Rep for him. He's on a different trajectory and he should play where he's challenged more. I see them finishing 1-2

VK have a goalie coming in thats literally above any other goalie in the league right now. By right now, this could change by next year's end. VK will lose a lot of scoring but they got some solid kids coming in to still be a force to reckon with. Ill say one thing though. Their weaker forwards won't be getting those tap in goals that DL sets them up with. That will be a reality check for their bottom 2 and at this age if you aren't playing you will fall behind. I see them finishing 1-2

JRC - coaches have done a remarkable job turning the ship around. However, loss of the best goalie in the league will come up with some adjustments. Their D is solid, the first 3 are elite level. Inclusion of FM was a masterstroke by RJM. it has paid dividends. I also applaud the coaches for keeping the roster mostly intact. The VK kid coming over and the JRC kid going back will be a wash. However, their forwards aren't top line forwards excluding the underager. So outside of FM, underager and the new VK kid, there are plenty of question marks in terms of goal scorers and intelligence. Just watch the DMF game on youtube vs JRC and you'll see what I mean. I anticipate the coaching will give the secondary forwards another year before they attract more talent. one thing JRC has is size on both ends. I see them finishing 2-3

DMF - great speed, they battle hard but not sure who is going there and who is coming off. they are the type of team that never gives up. But their biggest flaw is their goalie position. they need to improve on that. Also, they need to rely on secondary scoring outside of their underagers. I saw in the playoffs, the coach runs those 2 a lot but you need 3 lines to work. I see them finishing 4-5

Nats: Not sure what the latest is, i hear 4-5 players left/cut but there is a high sense of emphasis on 1 highly talented kid who plays for himself. you look at the best players from VK, TM, JRC, Sensational and you'll see those players are solid high IQ players that play a team game. you can bring the best players from timbaktoo to upgrade the team but it won't matter. They need to get better at moving the puck especially the centers. their better goalie also keeps them in the games against better teams. I put them 4-6 with the assumption that they couldn't upgrade the 2 d-men leaving. If they finish at 3, that will be an overachievement, if they finish at 6 that will be an underachievement. If they finish at 5-6, anticipate more movement next year.

TT and MRB: MRB getting some solid kids. coach is very good but they also lost their best player from last season who is moving to his age group. he was 80% of their offense. so the new kids will replace that and provide high energy and a solid foundation. One thing is for sure. They'll be hardest team to play against. win or lose, those kids are all gelled and they have a strong unity. They'll make the playoffs next year. As for the TT, they lost some pieces but they gained 4-5 solid players from other teams. They are playoff team now and will be a playoff team next year as well. They hang tight against the top teams. They almost upset the Nats in the playoffs. I see both rebels and TT have improved on speed, strength, size and both have good coaches. I put TT ahead of Rebels entering the season because they have more experience as a team and better goaltending. I see both teams in the 5-7 range.

SENsational: no comments. I see them finishing 8. Reason i say no comments is because they haven't made any changes so with no improvements or adjustments, its stats quo or worse. keep working hard and surprise teams.

TM will be just fine without JL, he’s a liability.

Nats are dropping like gnats. Watch for another major move next week. Book it!

Thats your 2 cents.
I wouldn't wanna see your dollar.
Get a life...
Clearly a top 3 team dad......or mom.
Did I read JRC has 3 elite D....
Maybe if you consider HG a D....
Their top 2 good...not Elite...
The rest average.
The goalie makes them look good..
TM and VK D are all better..
Even NATS top 2 are better..
