Minor Hockey Talks - Hockey Forum

I always feel sorry for 98% of the kids because often they do the best they can.

I feel sorry for about a small % of the parents who just wrote the cheque, drove to the game and stood alone/small group and cheered.

I feel zero sympathy for someone who tried to outsmart the system only to get him and his kid exposed to blowback.

I am sure where ever players like this land at the end of their journey they will have a number of Jr B or C jerseys to look at
