1 VK - Added Strong pieces
2 TM - Still lacking
3 JRC - The added small players that will struggle with hitting
4 TYN - No one went here will be bottom
5 DMF - The coach alone will not save this team and most of their good players left
6 REBELS - This is Laughable
7 REPS - Early commits have already bailed and gone to other teams
8 SENS - Complete team turnover no one stayed
... THUNDER BAY if still in league - Not in the age group
9 NYR - Who knows with these guys their issue last year was goal scoring mostly and they lost their #1 goal scorer
10 TT - Probably right
11 TRW - Losing commits already due to outrageous fees
12 MM - Will Probably be higher

How do the teams stack up based on what we know now? My version:
1) VK
- new additions are better 1to1 then 'cuts', both Waxers kids are VERY strong).
2) Marlies.
- Stable. kept the core. getting some good additions. Should catch up in size by next playoffs. Still weaker than VK.
3) JRC
Unpredictable situation. Strange new signups. Do they have potential to be higher?. Should not go lower)
4) BIGGEST QUESTION... REPS
Can someone legitimately challenge the BIG 3? Every early season consensus prediction ends up wrong in this age group. But I will go with REPS.
I dont think they are losing anyone important and if so, they may be able to step up.
5) DMF
Size of players and many are committed to them because of location
6) REBs
They are getting good players.
7) NATs
Fairytale is over
8) Rangers
I heard many leaving? Will LH stay?
9) MM
if indeed King City core and the coach form that team they might be a formidable bottom team.
10-12)
OUT of Playoffs - SENS, Wings, Titans. Unpredictable. Anyone knows what's happenning in the basement?

DMF better have got a lot of new players. JrC, VK pile them by 6-7 goals, so did top US teams like CBJ and Caesars. Not competitive with TM. How are they going to get to 5?

How JrC isn’t #1 is insanity!! Hammered Marlies 5-0 in Final game.

JrC are Champs and until you knock off the Champ, the Champs are always on top.

‘The champs’ are having trouble filling roster. Making calls down the list looking for kids who are willing to sit and watch all season.

If only there was a team that finished 4th the last 2 years

Agreed. Also how are the reps placed in 4th? They just lost a to a aa team this weekend and the have arguably the worst D core in the gthl.

They picked up good pieces. Some were not there

Which tournament? Who did they lose to?
