Who is the dirtier team NYK or MI?
NYK
MI
NYK
SIR
A lot of changes to most teams coming.
NYK always has a strong draw.
NT.... cheapest fees set by the club and volunteer coaches. Look for them to improve a lot.
SIR... basement feeder again.
AAA skates are ongoing. AA skates at this point are just money makers for paid coaches.

The parity in the loop is decently solid - 4 teams are within 7 pts of each other fighting for 2nd. GFA is ok too - not too many blowouts like in the West loop. Teams are winning games scoring 2.5 - 3 GPG. Look back to early season predictions and some are accurate but others had SIR mid pack. Hitting has changed things, AAA dropdown or not. EE is a bit of a surprise but new coach transition can be tricky. SIR picked up 12 new players too. At skates / tryouts last year, NT looked a bit shaky but they hit and play with physicality and it's made a difference for them. Big changes coming?....those players need to be ready for physical play. That might end up making the difference for them if they are effective or not. Next look is goaltending. Kids are getting better, shooting harder and winding up less on their releases. Letting in softies will lose close games.
