Any TT parents here? Is it true that their head C tells the kids that if they discuss with their parents any dressing room conversations there will be consequences? If it’s true, I’d rather send my kid to house league or a different sport than leave him alone with that guy
2015 AAA

Re: 2015 AAA
For those couple of kids I think theyre looking at player potential/ethic and player/parent commitment. My guess is a few teams have a couple kids in this situation.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 8:12 pmNot sure about the roster I heard they have a couple Tier 2 kids and those kids should not be in Triple AAA.

Re: 2015 AAA
Keeping a kid on a AAA that doesn't deserve to be there isn't ethical or loyal. When kids that did the work and deserve those spots are passed over for "loyalty" (which is just a fancy word for parents being buddies) it hurts the reputation of the team and organization. And it actually does a disservice to that kid and his/her teammates. It holds the entire group back during games and practices and creates tension on the team when the losses start to pile up or the kid just ends up sitting on the bench shift after shift.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 8:45 amFor those couple of kids I think theyre looking at player potential/ethic and player/parent commitment.

There's no good that comes from this type of situation especially when the child would have way more fun and likely develop more as a player on a strong AA team. This obsession with making a AAA team at all costs is so toxic and 99% of the time is more about the parents ego than fostering the kids love of the game, which btw is the number one ingredient if you'd like your kid to go far in the sport. A coach that is actually being ethical will have tough but honest conversations with these parents and do what is best for his team.
Re: 2015 AAA
TT doesn't have a choice, because of the reputation its hard for them to recruit players. I have heard several stories that are crazy toxic.

Coach knows he has 2 -3 seasons tops to cash in as much as possible prior to being replaced with a big boy coach that the organization recycles from the older age groups.Guest wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2024 9:52 amVK has 2-3 kids coming back from 2014 AA Vaughan , and a mix bag of whoever will pay the most and say the least.
VK will sit in the 6-9 spot next year.
VK have a plan, like they do with every other age group. They will continue to recycle their coaches at the older age groups. So, the statement above is pretty accurate.
Re: 2015 AAA
Putting a kid who has no signs of keeping up is definitely wrong. What I meant to say was player potential/ work ethic. These kids will be very different next year, some will change alot. A good coach with experience would hopefully see where a kid is headed and what he is capable of and where others might fall off . Some of them were still playing half-ice 4 on 4 in the first half of current season. And other kids who were successful aren't guaranteed to be next yearGuest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 11:01 amKeeping a kid on a AAA that doesn't deserve to be there isn't ethical or loyal.

Re: 2015 AAA
Signs of keeping up?? Where they are headed?? Potential?? These kids/parents have had 3 years to get themselves ready for AAA. If they're not ready now, no problem, play AA until they they deserve a spot on a AAA club.Guest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 1:01 pmPutting a kid who has no signs of keeping up is definitely wrong.

Re: 2015 AAA
Good move. NYR has a 2016 kid, maybe 2. There’s more than a few that will be just fine in the age group. Better than anyone who would play TT or TRWGuest wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 8:45 pm CJC recruiting 2 2016 kids apparently that are playing on his TE team this spring
