The season got underway and the first round of games is in the books.

Will take a few games but looks like the pre-season rumours are true on strength of teams

Nepean will do better than originally thought. They had a solid first game and were missing their top 07 draft pick.
Renfrew will also do well, as they also managed to get it done despite missing two of their top players. I’m a little surprised by how OHA is doing tbh.

Agreed. The next game is Renfrew vs Nepean. That will be one to watch for sure.

Nepean kid with 6 goals in one game. Is he an actual top player or just played a very weak Brockville team?

He’s both, he is definitely ranked as a top 3 F in this league but he played a weak team and for whatever reason the stars aligned for him that night. But good on him! Certainly has drawn a lot of attention to this U18 league.

Two big games on tonight. Nepean vs Renfrew and Hawksbury vs Rockland. Things are slowly starting to take shape and we are getting to see which teams drafted the best 07s. Any predictions?

Looks like Renfrew is the team to beat. Not sure why CIH is even in this league. They are AA at best. Feel bad for the players on that team. Rockland is a bit of a surprise if I’m being honest. There are a lot of 1st and 2nd round 2007 draft picks that are seriously underperforming. I’m sure when they get to play some weaker teams they will find their jam.

Thanks Renfrew dad, they don't look like much at all. A bit of a disappointment if I'm being honest. They will struggle as the season progresses.

Not a Renfrew dad but that’s an easy reply when you want to discredit an observation. Renfrew has disappointed you? Lol. I guess you must be a Nepean, CP or 73’s dad! Yes, it would be disappointing.
