And Majors were even worse.

guess thats what happens when you bring in a new coach that doesnt know the age group and listens to the ex-nhler who's kid should be playing AA or A.

top D cut and went to Barrie.

Meaning Nats or VP or Rebels, OR MM or Sens could all change places with VP and VP would be at the bottom of AAA and those teams would be 1st or 2nd in AA.

What these dads don't understand is bottom AAA are strong AA teams. These kids could go to AA and you would never say wow that kid is amazing, he should play AAA.

Every one of them can be changed out. They are essentially all solid AA players. Dads need to relax.

It is actually like that in every division. Bottom AA teams would be top 5 in A. It happens every time a team drops down.

No need to hype you’re trashy son up. Sure he could play AA, so could my mother in law. Stick to recording the games MM dad.

I dont know who in their right mind let that team be formed. How are AAA teams like that not able to pull together AAA players from other teams, joke and embarrassment to the organization.

You want to know how this team was formed? Nats could have had several existing AAA players but that didn’t fit the agenda. The plan is to fill the roster with mostly AA kids, with desperate clueless naive parents who will pay any amount to have their kids play AAA. That way when the team is shit and losing every night, the parent group can’t complain because theyre just happy to be there and grateful someone gave their kid the extra A.
Coach gets to rake in $$$, have a compliant and quiet parent group and zero pressure to develop or perform. It’s a minor hockey masterpiece.
Nats parents, your kid won’t get drafted from playing on the nats, won’t get looked at from scouts, colleges or other coaches for the following year. You won’t even benefit from better coaching or development. There are zero benefits. Sorry but you’ve been scammed.
