Just absolutely rinse the parents with subpar development all year. Get the $ for the with 14 players, then add your son for free, taking away time on ice from real players... That is genius... tell me it is not time to change who can enter these tournaments..

I hear whispers of a new team already being formed for 2026 season anyway, but this 100% is the straw that broke the Bulldogs back.

We knew a few weeks back they would be taking their 2015 kid , not a surprise but not welcomed either. This is their family business they can do as they please. Bad look all around and I'm sure it will happen again with their 2017 kid. They did it smart , close to tournament time so nobody would jump cause we were so close.

Word to the wise stay away from Toronto brick teams. These used car salesman with no coaching abilities

The 2015 is actually playing on TB or just going to the brick? They take him every year as a kind of mascot. There’s no way he was good enough to get a roster spot

2015 Bulldogs kid is only there cause Nonna & Nonno own the team , Pappa and zip can barley hold a conversation nevermind skate. He's a distant top 20 in the 2015 Ave group ever since they lost their Duffield team who made him look better then he is

Anyone notice that the hockey gurus keep getting fatter, year after year?

I swear, every coach who runs these scam tournament teams star to pack on the weight, develop the double chin and are less talented than the kids by the time they are 13 years old.
It is confusing as it is an active job, they they are under 35 years old and would be classified as obese... but they can yell at my kid about hard work, when they show up hung over while charging $200 + per hour and are out of breath tying their skates. The quality in coaching is a joke in the GTHL, there are only a handful of top end coaches that I have seen, the majority are grifting car salesman.

All the parents in here thinking the brick is the end all be all is wild. I’m fresh out of playing and now coaching, played AAA all the way through my minor hockey career, played 4 years in Junior and then another 3 in the NCAA. I can guarantee every single person in here once you’re out of the minor hockey world none of these coaches at the Junior level or beyond care if your kid played in the Brick. Despite playing in the brick for the bulldogs it did absolutely nothing to advance my hockey career.

No one is saying anyone does care. But I can tell it's a conversation piece from time to time and i'm in my 40's. My daughter's coach told me he played in the brick long ago and i thought it was interesting...that's about it. NBD. He did go on to be a good hockey player and played D1 college hockey as well.
