I just talked to some of the rats parents yesterday, everyone is all smiles and going back.

He had a whole bunch of house league kids at the tryout last week. Seems a little desperate.

Ok, dude, sure.

You guys are all just scared of the wagon the rats are gonna be next year, just wait and see what the teams gonna look like.

Yeah, the trash wagon. Keep pumping yourself up Rosie. One day you’ll clear 3 inches.

Your obsession with Rosie makes me think that, deep down, in a part of your pea brain you don't want to admit exists, you desperately want all 3 inches of Rosie inside you.

VR
TE
MR

MB
FT
MNS
MJ
ST
GTC

MT
HVS
TW
WML
VP

VR - could change if big boy goes. He’s their game plan.
MB - need better G and some D. Could win it all.
ST - strong core, great adds. Will compete every game.
MNS - Have the pieces, can new coach deliver?

TE - kids skating around. Toxic env, coach has no control
MJ - no better, no worse. Will coach care with his kid gone?
MR - coach overperformed, can he do it again? Need D and a G.
GTC - can FG keep his hands off and let new guy do his job?
FT - meet the new coach, same as the old coach

MT - old ST team. Coach is hothead.
HVS - better but not good enough
TW - s#it show coach, single A players
WML - poor westmall
VP - punching bag of the div.

Hilarious making predictions before the season is over lol but I don't think you know much about most of these teams. You were obviously a MT this past season, so that says a lot. I'll bite and comment on a few of these.

VR - Likely not as dominant but still tops. Could be difficult to replace some strong players if they move to AAA.

MB - no idea.

TE - Maybe more changes than wanted but they attract players and will still be strong.

ST - Laughable, you are clearly part of this team. They will be better, not saying much, but based on some adds no chance they break top 6.

MNS - Change but should stay where they are, top 4 team. Good adds.

MR - Will improve a bit, could see top 4. Well coached, ignore the crazy talk on here.

MJ - No idea, think they'll be worse based on second hand covos and seeing strong MJ kids at other teams skate, which means little.

GTC - Gongshow, but will somehow find a way to be about the same as this season

FT - Lots of changes, new coach opposite of old coach. Know the new guy from my older kid, he's one of the top coaches in the loop instantly, great guy. Will improve quite a bit based on what i've heard. But again could mean little, need quite a few improvements on that roster.

MT - Will struggle since I hear most of team left.

HVS - They'll be similar spot, but could drop. Some of the better players looking for greener pastures.

TW - Going to be a long season, team is blown up, new coach let's say is not exactly proactive.

WML - Long season coming, only have 1 team they'll beat next season

VP - Ouch, hopefully they find a way to have fun.

Not on ST but have skated around a bit and have seen what most of these teams are doing. ST has gotten rid of most of the problem kids from MT and are adding some good players. I’m assuming you’re one of the cuts.
It’s funny you call me out for making predictions now and then go ahead and reiterate everything I just said with your own predictions.
Enjoy FT. You’ll be done early next season.

Clueless . ST kept all the problem players/parents any talent went to mns . MNS has gotten much better they should be ranked higher . Three or so changes for VR and Eagles , Beast have quite a few changes but should still be strong . Rattlers should improve . Jets will also loose players depending on who they might get worse . Who gives a about the rest .

Agreed , pretty accurate. All others seem like haters . Also if your kid is still out skating your either a player cut or a parent cut . If your kid is a part of a core you should be locked in by end of Jan the absolute latest . So anyone on here shitting on any team . Maybe look in the mirror . Your the problem

Guest wrote: ↑Fri Mar 21, 2025 11:06 am VR - The best until they prove otherwise.
ST - Don’t shoot me but it looks like the stars aligned.
MB - Strong core, tough with talent. Like this team a lot but have a weakness in one area.

TE - Better talent not being replaced with same quality. Slight drop off.
MNS - Solid acquisitions, always in the mix. New coaching a question mark. Could move up.
MR - Where there’s smoke there’s fire. Extra development $ for coach mandatory.

MJ - Ranking based on success at tail end of season. They may drop back a few spots.
FT - Experienced coach should get results and attract talent in a rebuild year.
GTC - Where talented kids go to waste a year.

HVS - Good development. May be a tough year for them after noticeable improvement. Could move up or down a few spots.
WML - Good coaches, strong kids, can’t attract the talent.
MT - Streetsville West? This could be ugly.

VP - The bottom, until they prove otherwise.
TW - No clue.

MNS - half of acquisition S are solid but lost some solid and aquired lots of crazy
FT - excellent new coach
HVS - way better

Can FG keep his hands off? Uhhhhhhm, no chance. Another victim coach, will be gone by Xmas.

Anyone go to his skate? Everyone I talk to from the caps is not going back. Curious if its only the 3 amigos returning

'
lol....that's hilarious. The last I heard all the caps are gone with the exception of the coaches kids. Can't see this team survive and may fold. Unfortunate as the loop is getting smaller and smaller

Caps skate did not look good at all. All the top players are gone, looks to be 5 originals still committed and a bunch of single A players from westmall, markham, a couple of panthers, streetsville kids and a few goalies. Was surprised to see a beast kid out there but was most likely only out for the skate. About 10 skaters in total. I can see this fall apart really quick.

Doesn't surprise me given the gong show of a coach and the new side kick. I'm surprised people actually entertain the caps, do you not have any thing better to do with your time? Your risking the embarrassment of being seen at a caps skate

My son was at the skate. There was some good talent there, all from other AA teams. Don't think the Caps will be at the top of the standings but there are worse groups skating at the moment. They'll finish in roughly the same place as last year.

Was anyone at it. Surprising to see that happening in the midst of a playoff series.

?!?!?!?!

I wasn't at the skate but my friend in single A was there and said they didn't have enough to form a team. Lots of goalies but all the better caps players are not returning. They are left with a few smaller players and had a few single A kids out there. There were 2 from Beast but may have been their first stop as they Beast just made their cuts. Both their goalies are gone but should not have a problem filling goalie spots.
They may end up the same or maybe slightly worse. All the top guns are gone and the coaches kids are not the strongest players.
