losing in overtime with 1 shot/1 goal is brutal. I don't get the logic of these teams. The best goalies do not play for the best GTHL teams. These kids have never seen more than 10 shots in their winter season and now they are dropped with some prairie beasts/oil monsters. Take the goalies from the midpack team with a weak D. Those goalies have seen all the shots.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 7:23 pm Reality check for PHD in game 1 today.

PHD is jinxed with the No names brothers there , not sure who's worse them or ML/GL

I thought they were by far the better team. But you can’t win much when your goalie posts a .690 save percentage.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 7:23 pm Reality check for PHD in game 1 today. They were out worked and watching on the sidelines while a bunch of Alberta's finest never quit.

Re: 2015 AAA
My kids team went to the brick a few years back and they just didn't perform the way they normally would. you can say it's excuses, but you just never know how a group of 9 and 10 year olds will perform in a week long tourrey like this. It isn't the end all be all.
Re: 2015 AAA
2015 group in Canada is weak, Ontario especially. Some Chicago kid just scored 4 against Manitoba. If the talent pool was deep that would be unheard of.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 7:12 pm I don't know if it's covid or just lack of talent. In states hockey was not shut down the way it was in Canada...i'm sure there were some groups that still had access to ice. Some birth years just aren't as good as others.
The 2014 talent pool is also very weak across NA so saying the Bulldogs went to the finals doesn't mean shit. The whole pool is weak, it wasn't as hard to get to the finals as it would have been in previous years.
Re: 2015 AAA
The Salva-whore Brothers have no idea how to coach hockey. J only played until pee wee AA and F played bantam AAA. Good pylons/skills guys but totally clueless when it comes to gameplay. They are good U8 level coaches, by this age they are out of their range.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 7:33 pmlosing in overtime with 1 shot/1 goal is brutal. I don't get the logic of these teams.

Re: 2015 AAA
TBD is abysmal. How many at-home Marlies are networking now to jump ship before Aug training camp?

Can’t be said about either of the Bulldogs goalies. One is dead last. The other won’t be far behind by the end.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 6:12 pmIR stinks and got lit up by every decent team he played against last year.

Because he’s absolute dust. id love to hear how a kid like that got signed to a Brick team. some top Alliance goalies left for US brick teams that will end up far higher in the standings.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Jul 01, 2025 1:26 pmLH is not joining TM.

There are easy 2/3 better goalies and 5/6 better D they could have gone with , but wanted to try and build their winter team through the brick.
TM going to be in for a real long winter. Their so called #1 goalie for pulled against a team that the Reps would beat.
Consider it a blessing he isn’t in the room with your boys.
He is constantly talking crap about players on his own team.
Toronto teams dodged a bullet by passing on him.
No goalies in Alliance should be playing at the brick.
Not a single strong goalie in that league.
