Trust me when I say you haven’t even heard half of the shit the MT parents do. A lot doesn’t get posted on here. Just ask other parents from other teams and you will get the real truth.

I’ve also heard so much negative about VR and MB as well and have witnessed some real shady stuff from HV so am staying clear from them and their organization.

If you believe anything on here about a team then you are a moron. It’s just a bunch of losers trying to make teams look bad

No one would come on here and ask any serious questions about teams -anyone with half a brain. All these comments and questions are made up conversations by the people who do not deserve to procreate.

Their goalie from last season left the team and is now traveling far, likely for a reason.

Only TW and MB have strong goalies. TE, HVS, and maybe VR are decent, but you can try if you’re confident in your child. The rest would be happy to find a good goalie. Keep in mind that ST’s goalie is the coach’s son, so he’ll stay in net regardless of performance.

That leaves MNS, MT, FT, and WML as your main options. Personally, I don’t like FT as they play very chaotic hockey. WML is a nice team, and they just need a solid goalkeeper, so it could be worth the risk. MT is another option with good coaching, though their results are inconsistent.

I would stay away from ST especially because of the father coach. that smells like a terrible experience as I see the parent coach playing his son the majority of the games regardless of performance. I would look at MB as they may be looking for a goalie…

i agree about ST. i heard MB has picked all their players for next season. so any skates or tryouts would be a waste of time.

ST has alternated goalies all year long so why would it be any different next year keep your weak ass comments to yourself

Oh that’s simple to answer - New coach is one of the goalies dad. Whoever the other goalie is, they won’t even touch the ice. That’s just the reality of a parent coach.

You clearly are trying to stir things up as per usual on this site. No surprises there. Anyone with half a brain can read through the BS and knows this is fake news.

When you’re on a team where the coach’s son is playing the same position as you, things can get tricky—no matter how fair the coach tries to be. Even with the best intentions, there will always be subtle differences in how mistakes are handled, how playing time is distributed, and how opportunities are given.
You might start feeling extra pressure, not necessarily because the coach is openly unfair, but because deep down, he will always prioritize his own kid. If he’s not fair from the start, he’ll likely shape the situation in a way that makes you want to leave anyway—whether it’s through playing time, criticism, or just making the environment uncomfortable for you.
With that in mind, it might be a good idea to start looking for another team

Well said…this is just the ugly truth of what it means playing for a parent coach. Promises will be made, but when push comes to shove the coach with always pick their child over other players. Thats just reality!

Maybe You must speak from experience but it doesn’t define all coaches. But not all coaches are the same. Believe it or not there are a few (only a very select few) coaches out there that actually want the best for the team and players. They are not in it for the $$$ and legit have other non hockey job and life outside of hockey world. And if we are being honest here none of these kids are making to the NHL so let the kids play hockey. You can chase letters and wins but you should be chasing good team environment where the kids will remember their friendship made and lessons learned in 5 years time over who won xyz game.

It's a big difference when a coach is a parent of the goalkeeper and there's another goalkeeper in the team. They have absolutely different mentality.
