MI had a lot of changes, new coach who is known to be a great developer. Will be the fastest team in the loop. Question is did they improve in goal?

TA - team got worse, coach didn't get any of the players he was hoping for and all strong kids from last year went running for the hills based on crazy coach.

NYK - will be much different, top 3 goal scorers all gone

NT - stagnent, not much change.

Avs in West may not lose a game next season.

Rangers lost both goalies.

Duffield - drastically improved, and should win some games. Added strong kids from NT Select.

Agree that it's still Spring and we are predicting the final result for next spring, however I'll counter with:

TRT
LF
NYK
DMM
ARD
NT
MI
TRTA

LFG
TA
SIR
WHGH

In the 1st Block, these top 8 that I feel will qualify for the Round Robin. I did rank them in the order that I feel they will finish, however top 4 are a bit interchangeable. Its just a guess, 10 months out. DMM new to the loop and have a lot to prove having come down from A. Dont quite think it will be enough to dominate the A loop as whatever talent they had likely fled. NYK, LF, and TRT all have solid foundation. They lost kids yes, but they did good job replacing. NYK will be strong in Goal, LF have solid defensive system, and TRT will have great offense. This will come down to whether NYK and LF can score, and whether TRT can defend.

ARD should be the best of the next 4. They can surprise and sneak into the top 4 but if they dont, they are surely a lock to finish 5th. rounding out the bottom 4 are NT, MI, and TRTA. NT and MI are what they are. They arent great but they will be there in the end. TRTA is just a guess as the Association has strong house league. This could obviously be 1 of the teams 9-12 but...

TA & SIR both lost players, and WH doesnt have as strong a program as LF or TRT. That 8th and final spot will likely be TRTA or LFG.

Surprise being NYK. Lost strong kids to AA and replaced them with mediocre A players at best.

Has the dust settled here?

Have all the teams finalized their spots?

Are there any surprises?

Re: 2012 GTHL 'A' DIVISION

Which AA teams?

And of the 4 new teams, how will they fare?
DMM
WHGH
LFG
TRTA
Tryouts have not started yet. anything can happen before or during tryouts.
DMM should be one of the better teams. LF picked up a couple kids from AA but lost as well to AA. TR lost a bunch to AA as well but they have picked up some good replacements. NYK lost a couple to AA but they recruit well
Where are LF, TRT and NYK getting kids from?
AA
