To succeed in hockey and like you need to play a hard heavy game and TRT does that. They also have the skill back it up. Don't complain that you cant keep up with them b/c they play that way. TA just isn't in the same league as the top 3 teams in AA for this reason.

Everyone wishes the TA all the best in a quick and full recovery, but you got to be a little stronger on your skates and always have your head on a swivel.

If that dad attacked my bench, he would have received a boot to the forehead once he opened that door up. Spartan Style.

I’d love to see your response if it was your son convulsing on the ice. I don’t think you’d be saying 2-3 games max. Hit is flat our dirty, Puck is off the players stick, he’s defenceless and off balance and not to mention he was hit on the blindside on the back side of his shoulder. 13 is a dirty dirty dirty play, long before this incident, he’s been suspended numerous times. As a player who weighs 225 at age 15 you should probably be more mindful when a player is in a vulnerable situation and ease up when there can be harm caused, he clearly is incapable of that and deserves to serve a lengthy suspension for ending a kids minor hockey career. TR parents sit here all day deflecting and try to move the focus away from the hit towards the reaction. I can promise if any of you watched your son convulsing on the ice you would have done a lot more. And for you clowns who think this is about winning and losing you’re also delusional, the health and wellness of a 15 year old is significantly more important than your kids abilities in AA. Grow up

I understand your concerns, and I don’t want to take away from the seriousness of the situation. However, I’ve noticed that the term “convulsing” has been used repeatedly in your comments. As a medical professional, I have to say that I did not see any evidence of convulsions during the incident. It’s important to be cautious with the language we use, as exaggerating the situation might not help anyone in the long run.

There’s no question that the child was injured, and no one is minimizing that. My question is, why would a parent who knows their child is significantly smaller and less equipped to handle physical play allow them to continue in a league where hitting is part of the game? If the child is struggling to keep up, why not consider a level or league with no hitting, such as house league? This could be a much safer and more suitable environment for them.

The focus should always be on the well being of the child, not just performance or trying to push them into AAA tryouts that may not be in their best interest. As parents, we should prioritize our kids health and development above everything else, and I think it’s time to think about what’s best for the child in this situation.

Just STFU
For you to say the kid wasnt in a medical seizure brought on by a concussion is gross. You obviously were not there.
Since you weren't there why the F are you chiming in ??

The kid straight up was CONVULSING on the ice. Sorry you can't handle the disturbing facts on the incident moron. Crawl away. Despicable comment

This "medical professional" clearly did not actually watch all the footage, only the hit itself. The TA player was 100% shaking in convulsions from a seizure brought on by the hit. And look I'm one of the people that actually didn't think the hit was that dirty, and it was just an unfortunate outcome. But even in saying that, the kid was definitely having convulsions and it was really scary watching that video and absolutely terrible what happened to the kid and tje injury he sustained. And all the whining and pitching going on here is completely irrelevant because the only thing that anyone should be caring about is how the kid is doing and how his recovery is going.

I want to stress that everyone here is fully invested in the injured child's recovery, we all hope for his complete healing. However, I’m concerned by the efforts to demonize another young player based solely on his physical style. Hockey is a contact sport, and while the risk is clearly outlined when parents sign off on participation, it’s important to question whether placing a child in such a physically demanding league is truly in his best interest. Would a less contact focused environment, like A level or house league better suit his development and safety?

Guest wrote: ↑Mon Mar 10, 2025 3:48 pm Just some friendly advice, if your kid isn’t built for the heavy physicality of higher level hockey, that’s totally okay.

We all grow at our own pace, so if they can’t keep up, why not consider other sports or stick to house league?

There’s no need to pressure them into playing at a level that doesn’t fit, they should enjoy the game and stay safe above all.

Sending positive and healing thoughts
