There are no stars players that are a difference maker on middle team
There are stars players trying for a spot on bottom three teams

Long story made short

The kids were all taught by real coaches, thats why they are skilled. the way he screams at little boys and how poor his on ice skill and communication is, makes it a bad spot. on top NYR is top 3 worst organizations in the GTHL.

I’ve observed first hand small kids with helmets on the benches, teenagers with backpacks , frantic coach. Someone who knows a few parents on that team has said it’s a complete disaster over there. If these kids and teenagers are heading over as the NYR coaching staff it will be a long season.

Please move on to new topic. Very curious what pickups Nats have made . Who’s coming in? They were a strong team to begin with and if they have really added stronger players it’s gonna be hard to beat that team.

I heard a couple kids playing 2015 are coming. Not sure if true.

Heard VK stayed loyal and kept all but 1 kid. Good on them for longer term development. What’s the deal with TM ? How many Raiders Black going? The coach may not be very experienced but is a likeable guy, good with players, calm and knows what he’s doing and has the right approach in developing players. Does anyone know who’s on DMF? Where are their best players coming from?

Why would keeping the VK kids year over year be considered loyal? Is there a promise made that if you play for the MD team you automatically make AAA? That has never really been how it works in hockey.
