None?, not sure about that comment. So no 2015's in the GTHL are making it, who cares if they do or not. Parents can revovolve or not that's up to them.

Also, whoever wrote the comment's life revolves reading minor hockey forums and predicting other kids future. Maybe take a look in the mirror lol.

Stop describing Ammal without his permission.

At least Amal’s kid is better than Farrone’s

Amal's kid is better then 99% of the league

JF’s kid is an animal and I love it. It’s what I want in my Dmen.

My kid is on another team and no we aren’t playing there next year either. The kid is a nice boy.

Stop picking on kids if you don’t like the parents.


Personally I’ve never seen anything but good things from JF

The kid needs a 7 day a week learn to skate program

I'll let JF know and pass along the feedback, who are you and where does your kid play? I'm sure you have called JF to try and be on his team that's the best part about all of this.

The top teams get the hardest hate. Stay on your keens where you belong you peasant. You want to knock a coach no problem, at least knock one that robs you of your $$ and has you on a 7th place team. JF (our coach, i could careless if you know i play for the nats and will be again next year) doesn't take a dime from a single kid/parent and we finished in 4th. So while you continue to knock the guy just remember to beg a little harder when you call him week after week.

went into this season on a high, my kid loved hockey, was scoring goals, battling in the corners and just having fun. Then this season had a coach who favored a few kids, ignored the rest, and belittled and yelled at them on the bench and in the locker room. Had kids crying multiple times. I mean just full out yelling at the kids. 9 and 10 year olds. Blamed the parents for any hardships the team faced and had multiple kids wanting to quit the team. Many of your little super stars on fast tracking to the NHL but the rest of us just want a healthy environment for our kids to play the sport they love. Be better coaches, these kids will remember you

Current TRW parent here, we are on the fence about coming out for one of JF's birthday skates. We heard the Team will possibly be worse than our team was this year due to the many players leaving the Nats team. If any nats parents could provide some insight that will help us decide.

I don't like Nats, their "coach" and retarded families but honestly, even if Nats lose any 10 kids and call another 10 random kids from random AA teams, they won't be worse than TRW.

Guest wrote: ↑Fri Feb 28, 2025 11:55 am Only 3–7 kids from the 2015 GTHL. at best 10, but more likely around 5 will play at least one NHL game. That includes those who will move up to AAA from OMHA, AA, and other provinces or countries in the coming years. A few more will play 5–6 seasons in the AHL or Europe for a salary comparable to a good barber’s earnings.
No matter how talented your child is now, his chances drop significantly if now he isn’t taller than the average for his age group. At 9–10 years old, smaller kids like BP, ZL, TB, and a few others often outperform their peers because they are pushing beyond a sustainable workload for their age. They simply lack the resources for proper growth. Their parents are sacrificing long-term physical development—height and weight being important indicators for short-term success. They will simply fade away in few years. It happened in every age group.
If your child plays on a strong team with a good coach (one of the 4–5 top-mid-level teams in the 2015 loop), is growing well, enjoys the game, and balances school and other activities, then staying in hockey as long as possible will benefit him, even if he doesn’t make the NHL.
However, chasing coaches like from MM, Nats, VK, TT, or TRW makes little sense. Not only will you spend months surrounded by parents who belong in a circus or a zoo as in case of Nats, but you’ll also deal with coaches, who shouldn't coach at all. It won’t be good for your child’s mental or physical health. Just needless waste of time and money that could be spent on something better.
