Minor Hockey Talks - Hockey Forum

My son wanted to play for the caps but was hesitant as due to the online feedback about FG and his team. We settled with the rattlers. Though watching the caps this morning, they seem like the real deal. Though there were 2-3 call ups as seemed, they are small and fast. They are much better than what most expect. They won 4/5 at the spotlight tourney so far and they are playing in the finals.

You made the right choice. Rattlers have solid coaching and top 3 team. Caps beat westmall 3:2 with 3 callups. Once spring is over the call ups are gone and the circus begins. Give yourself a big pat on the back. 3:2 against westmall. Join a real tourney.

Caps won the Toronto spot light tourni,they actually beat west mall 5:3 not 3:2. They seem like a pretty strong team, disregarding the 3 call ups had.

JRC kid scored 3 goals. Did their actual team actually score? Who are they fooling. It’s spring hockey so all ok.

The team scored 2 in the finals and JRC kid also scored 2.

Give yourself a big pat on the back fellas. Regular season those call-ups are not there. But it’s always nice to pay and showcase a few AAA players.

Thank you Coach. You're a true beauty.

The board is great this time of year, debating spring hockey, thinking it matters, Caps ask everyone to play for them, or someone WANTS to play for the Caps but just settled with a top 5 team instead

I swear 65% of what is said on this board is total lies and bs, and that's probably the low end.

Hope the kids are having fun playing spring hockey, i'm being serious with that. Because that's all it should be, it's going to have the smallest impact on next season. Don't get burnt out and hope the kids are active with other activities to avoid injury.

To be fair, we are all hating on the caps way to early…. Let’s wait and see what they do in the G.

My kid played in this tournament on the weekend. I'll be honest, it was weak competition, very weak. Both Caps and Wml will struggle as people expect, it is what it is. Not everyone will be a winning team. Caps won't be as bad as some predict here is my guess next season but we will see when real hockey starts in Oct. Wml look weaker than last season, I thought they had some decent players that I guess they have lost, and appears have replaced with ST kids, HVS cuts other randoms. Their best player in this tournament is also not actually on their team. Tourney was fun for the kids, and that's about it.
