Mb still the top no question, best at every position
Mt they were close last year added enough to get to 2
Vp still good but lost their top goalie
Hv best players stated kept most team will be strong
Gtc top 5 will be ok , added aaa players
Ft big jump in talent will crack top 6

Bottom 3
Tw - some meaningless change
Dd might be a bit better
VR worst team from the best AA orgz

your analysis is like WM doesn’t even exist LOL
PS: VP goalie leaving isn’t their top goalie unless both goalies are leaving VP

How is VR bottom 3 all of a sudden? what happened?

I don't think VR is going to be bottom 3 but when a team that wins 1/2 their games goes through a rebuild it doesn't say much about the program. Top will be the beast and closely followed and challenged by VP and HV.

Figure the Terriers stay near that group with TE in the top 6 mix.

Toros and GT caps are play in teams and TW, ST, and WM are bottom 3 with 5 to 7 wins amongst the three of them.

Top 3
MB
MR
MT

Not everything is as it seems in VP land, a lot of disgruntled parents.
I guess that’s what happens when you cut you manager and Assisstant Coach. NO MERCY

So how did the tourney go? Any surprises.. does MB need to worry?

I would say from this tourney HV and VP are going to be the biggest competition for MB.

MR not in the same league…Toros will take a step further back next year as well.

I dont think any insight can be gathered from this weekends tournament. Nothing was proven or disproven by any of the teams. Not full rosters. Random kids. Some bad games. Just spring fun really.

Totally agree. Spring is for fun. Playing with your buds that you normally don’t play with because you are on different teams in the winter. These guys that bring 80-90% of their winter teams do have an advantage but they are looking to start some chemistry for the regular season 5 months away… So all good. Spring is a mixed bag so you don’t know what you are getting when you join. Just embrace and enjoy the ride. If VP,MR or HV won the Canlan tournament I am sure we will be hearing it on this site as they are the teams to beat but they didn’t so we will go along and continue to have fun in the spring.

VP challenged themselves by playing with AAA teams, regardless of outcome.
MR, HV and Toros mainly played A level teams in RR to get to Semis and then were challenged in a one game and done scenario. Don’t blame Canlan on playing in an easier division to “have fun” and “gain chemistry”.
So don’t worry MB, the gap is big enough that it won’t be closed until OHF games next spring.

What we learned this weekend is that VP is still a bunch of head
Hunters. If teams work on there PP next year that will be key to beating Panthers.

#2 = sandbag division for AA clubs

Sounds like a bitter Panthers parent!

#1 = AA/AAA players
#2 = A/AA players

#2 = sandbag division for AA clubs
