1 of every 2 kids on that Brick team will be playing AA at best when they get older. Kids burn out and peak early with skill and skating but lack the drive and commitment once the others come online and it gets hard.

You muppets arguing about height of parents and kids are ridiculous

Stop embarrassing yourselves. Go back to banging the glass and yelling at the refs

I want him to have fun and work Hard at something. I care little about anything other than helping my kid learn lessons about what it takes to be good at anything. Hardwork and dedication. to many people here talking about fathers and mothers, saying their genes are bad etc. Just focus on raising your kid and helping him evolve. instead of looking for reasons why other kids will be not as good as your son in 5 years

So are you going to the Brick or Not? Sensing you are a Brick Cut. Long road now to OHL/NCAA without the Brick.

Is it better to be cut from a brick team or make the team yet not get as much playing time as the ‘stars’ due to skill/ability, political reasons, coaches kid, someone paid more money to be there etc. Making a brick team isn’t a road to happiness for all either. The reality is that not everyone gets equal playing time.

4th liner still says he’s NHL player 2 mins ice time at the brick, still a brick player

Very true. My son went to the brick and the opportunities him and the kids that went over the ones who didn’t is evident. He is invited to top tournaments and skill sessions all the ones you want to be a part of. They are forever labelled as “a brick kid”.
