That’s an excuse when your kid doesn’t make it… Ontario teams don’t have imports.
Ontario teams do have politics though

well some teams do...and they aren't even good ones. I just dont understand passing over better local kids for imports. Maybe they are paying money, I dunno.
No, it’s because you don’t understand what the coach is looking for. He isn’t looking for the next best kid, He is looking for a kid to fill a certain roll
yes, we were told that. its just interesting that some very good kids did not make the team...and kids who seem sub par did. They even said some of the kids who were cut will go on to be better than some of the kids who made the team...and they are probably right.

there are some kids on my son's brick team who i'm not sure how they got picked...then others were passed over that I again don't understand why/how. It is what it is...but I'm not entirely sure what the method to the madness is when picking a team. Two of our picks were 'imports'...not sure if you have to have those?

Kids like Greener and Larsh are role players who don’t have the talent to carry a top 2 team. Not even close. There will be more pressure on HS who was hidden a lot last year by his exceptional D who made him look better than he is. VK finishes no better than third.
seems like it's hard to find good goalies...none of them at this birth year seem to be great.
You won’t know the true goalie studs until U13 or U14 when you see who’s a big mofo who kept their reflexes. Average or smaller kids will get pushed back. Look at the major jr and nhl trends size rules at all positions but especially between the pipes
that's why i dont get why people get so excited about the Brick. The kids in it now won't necessarily be the best players at 15.
Stats don't lie. Look them up before you shoot off random facts with no substance.

Better yet, how many brick kids in the last 3-4 years were drafted? Go ahead, I'll wait

Will they be the best at 15? Not necessarily but will the vast majority still be top players, yes.
Genetics also don’t lie 😂

*shrug* My kid is on a brick team this year. I guess we'll see where he's at in a few years.
