WW would win eveytime against JRC. JRC only has 1 good player #19

Just so we are clear PM is their most complete player and will be their best player long term.

ZM super fast and all he does is toe drag. Makes no sense

It’s like having a 1000hp car and only ever driving the speed limit

Sorry to disappoint you guys but the best player on JRC is their RHD #5 and it is not really even close.

People that don't know hockey only see forwards and how many goals they score.

JRC is a 3rd-4th place team if #5 isn't on the roster.

#5 is one of the top 2 players in the league imo. Top D for sure.

no #88 is imo. He is the best player on JRC.

He can’t play defence. 5 the best D without question 91 is easily number two IMO

ZM PM and JD top forwards.

Regardless it’s a well built and balanced team.

Aren’t 19 5 and 88 going to TT next year or was that BS?

Total cash grab. When and where was it?

Saturday evening @ Sports Village. Several parents seen raging. 50+ kids on the ice. The best part of all of this is that JV is not even picking the team. BB is picking the team, and the team has already been set for several weeks. Unreal... Great way to ruin your primary source of income being a hockey school guy and ass f##king families for $50. The hockey community is small.. People talk... Not a good business practice.

It’s the parents’s assumption that these are tryout skates. For tryout skates that take place before the official date in April, the coach is NEVER on the ice, unless they are brazen. So, the fact the coach is on the ice tells you it’s not a tryout. If you’ve been to other tryouts, the coaches are usually observing off-ice.

Red wings spots have been offered to OMHA kids. Whether they come or not depends if they want to drive to play on a weak team.

Let’s think about this, the OMHA players coming to play for the TRW, regardless of where they are coming from will have to pay double the price they are currently paying to play hockey, only to play on a bottom 4 team in the G. This team will potentially be a bottom 2 team. Where can I sign up for that?

At the age of 10 years old, If the opportunity was with a top 6 team, it makes a little more sense!

The players coming to the TRW are TT players and mid pack teams OMHA players. So players from an 11th place team and players from mid pack OMHA teams.

Clearly not very smart people!

They will be bottom 2 guaranteed. I don't mean that as trash talk. Couple players from OMHA AAA team, couple TT players (not the good ones), and some AA. The few TRW players worth returning are leaving. That is a pretty big hole to climb out of.

Let's save this comment and the other ones similar to it, then revisit in a year from now and see how it's aged. Reality is that this is coming from a G parent that has no clue of the talent outside of his bubble, or an OMHA family that is bitter because they weren't included in the conversation.

TRW will not finish lower than 7th next year, guaranteed. Do the families joining believe that they will be the top team in the G? Answer is "no".
With the exception of WW and NCP (for different reasons) and speaking generally, all of the OMHA East teams have at least 2-5 players that other teams would love to have. Typically the skill drop- off is swift once you move past those 2-5 players (again, generally speaking).

Why would anyone not want the current bottom feeder to make drastic changes to improve their program, thus making the whole loop stronger? The attention to this TRW subject seems super odd.

And the next year, the same thing will happen again, at least 2 to 5 players will be offered spots elsewhere and will leave because no one is ever truly happy where they are, they will always want “more”

#5 is one of the top 2 players in the league imo. Top D for sure.

no #88 is imo. He is the best player on JRC.

He can’t play defence. 5 the best D without question 91 is easily number two IMO

ZM PM and JD top forwards.

Regardless it’s a well built and balanced team.

BS just like # 5 and #91 being the top D. #88 is

This has to be ML or RL of TBD. 88 is what was left after JRC's top D when to PHD

Too many uneducated hockey coaches determine player value by how many goals they score. Lazy, one way hockey players have a shelf life, no matter how offensively gifted.
