TYN's coach is a very modest and shy guy, someone with good manners and, presumably, a decent level of education.
Why has he surrounded himself with a bunch of freaky idiots in the team? Starting from personal assistant always idle MC and his downtrodden kid to the mother of twins, to BP and his parents and few others. No other team has so many unconventional personalities. Hard to understand why would a normal person want to interact with that circus almost on a daily basis.
Some have very little excitement in their life and having a circus within arms reach can provide that needed entertainment.
Absolute freak show.
MC walked around telling people last year that his kid had an offer from every AAA team. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s in AA by U12.
Twin mom is an unwell person who can’t read other people and has no social IQ, one of the twins wouldn’t make a top AA team, bizarre situation.
BP’s parents think he’s as good as SR.
A couple of the D also downtrodden but parents dutifully dragging them to skill sessions 65 times a week.
BP is about as small as SR but that’s about it. Not even close
Buddy what’s your obsession with small kids? What’s the issue if a kid is small?
BM dad from TM has entered the chat.
BM is irrelevant in 2 years.
Think you’re obsessed with BM and BM dad ya weirdo. That kids not even that small definitely about mid size think you’re confusing him with the tiny kid TB on TM.
Actually could never see BM dad even entertaining this garbage page so get over your self and stop obsessing over those 2 it’s weird.

BM this, SR this, TM this. Enough. Stop the nonsense. Fact is that your bigger kids cannot match the speed and quickness of smaller players so stop hating. Maybe try your boy for goalie. Otherwise if you are not so caught up in standing in front of the net to make goals tree go for defense. Smaller kids will have advantages.
How do you even claim that? Lol. Peeped your stats. 6.38 GA... Unless this is all from one of the two goalies, but then still... not the best goalie PAIRING
He's not that far off, all you got to do is score 7 goals and you have a chance.
Not going to comment on who is good and who isn't, but any dumbass knows that GAA and Save % are stupid stats and really stupid stats at this age. You really think that they GAA for Titans would be materially different if they changed the goalie? You think JRC's GAA would change a ton if you changed the goalie? GAA is almost entirely a team stat, no one looks at GAA to compare goalies.
Lol. You're telling me that if you separate out the stats for the starting goalie and and stats for the backup goalie, they would be exactly the same? When you do that, you will see that GAA and SV% actually do matter.
And yes, I think it would make a difference. A better goalie might not help a team WIN the game, but they will lower the team's GA, even with the crappiest D infront of him. Duh.
Rebels goalie for instance.
Do the Rebels have one or two? I can see a Rebels vs. TRW game on Dec 12 and another on Dec 13. If they have back to back, they probably took turns. The first game Rebels won 5:1, the second game the Rebels won 8:5. Maybe I'm wrong, but these seem like two different goalies playing with wildly different GAs against the same team in back to back games. Or, it's one goalie and he was sh*t tired for the second game.
You tell me. Are Rebels rocking one or two goalies?
They have 1. Congratulations, you have disproven your own theory.

Not a goalie dad .. thank god .. but I've got to agree with this.
Also agree. JRC or DMF goalie could be worst in the league and it wouldn’t matter, they would still have the best stats.
Welcome to primary age hockey.
Any coach that recruits goalies based on if the goalie's TEAM finished first or second is an idiot.
So, we are a good team and this is the problem with stats. One goalie has a higher SVG% but also a higher GAA (he gets more shots for some reason), and that same goalie also WINS more games. The goalie that wins less "looks" better to me, even though he wins less. The goalie that wins less, is also not a great team-mate, when his partner loses he is the happiest guy in the arena. The other goalie is mad if the team loses, even if he was the backup.
The point is, stats really don't matter, and it's an incredibly hard position to evaluate at this age. Choose a good teammate and a goalie who likes the process, it's a long lonely road back there.

100%. Non-crazy goalie parents and good goalie partner go way further than thinking some kid is slightly better than another at this age.

All goalie parents are crazy. They let their kid be a goalie!

I'm gonna break up this kumbaya session...there are some AAA goalies this year that are TERRIBLE. Letting in shots from far away that they see all the way. No excuse.
