MR parent here and I hope other MR parents read this.
This season was a damn fiasco by our team officials and several unhinged parents. If these weird adults had asked for a parent vote on whether or not to appeal the HVS decision, not all parents would have agreed (such as myself) and we would have likely at least a few more playoff games. But like the HVS mom, getting back at her and the org came first, and they did the appeal without speaking to our parent group first. Moronic on the team officials for not realizing that the GTHL policy is written so that they can use multiple rules to enforce one verdict.
Either way, playing VP would have come eventually and they were simply better. We were out coached, defense and smaller players were absolutely physically outmatched, multiple giveaways up the middle and could not score on the powerplay with a 5 on 3 and 5 min major in separate games.
Lastly, horrible to see the VP player with a broken arm or separated shoulder (not sure) leaving the rink at the end of the game. Serious injuries at this age can result in life long changes, so praying he makes a full recovery.
