No, pretty familiar.
OJHL, CCHL, NOJHL……Tier II
GOJHL….. Jr B
Last time I checked, 42 16 yr olds played 10 games or more in Jr B. 46 is the max allowed. So that tells me a lot of OHL teams are sending their 16 yr old picks there and not to Ajax.
Am I missing something?
This is simply not true. Lots of OHL teams don’t care if you play JR A or U18 what’s important is that you play and develop. No point going to JR and sitting on the bench which is what most 16 year olds do.
You are correct when you say that playing and developing is important. That has to be priority number one. But I’m sorry man, you are so wrong if you think that OHL teams don’t send their 16 yr. Old players to pay in the GOJHL. Its a
Younger league than the OJHL.
I can truthfully say that 10 of the 12 players on our u16 team that are playing Jr this year, as a 16 yr old, were sent there by their OHL team and all started low on the totem pole and worked their way up to top 6/top 4 mins. The 11th is full time OHL and 12th earned his Jr spot on his own.
So ya, they do care man. And they do send players to affiliate teams. Thats why they have control of the 16yr old spots on almost all Tier II and Jr B teams. And please read what I said…..Almost all teams. Not all teams.
False all false information, 16 year olds get very little ice play U18 and get all the ice time .
You really are an idiot. I can’t even begin.
Listen people, from experience, if your boy can cut it and is ready to work his tail off and learn how to play with the big boys, you’ll get plenty of ice at jr. And develop just fine. And when the 17 yr old season comes, you’ll flourish while the rookies learn the game all over again after their year at u18. So many are afraid of jr. But if you do the work to find a good situation and little johnny can deliver, all will be fine.
Junior teams just trying to fill rosters as it’s expensive, don’t listen to this clown . U18 is way better option for 16 year olds !
Ya, well, this clown has had one boy go through major Jr and he played tier II at 16. 7th rd pick, another played tier II and is in year 1 of D3. and wasn’t drafted to OHL. I’d say it worked out just fine.
