Who will an undersized horrible body language , win nothing , loser dad CW????
CW is pretty decent u16 player. But kind of a hobbit and parents are Hobbits too, so probably screwed in big picture. Should do ok in ohl in cpl years. Hobbit offspring never reach the pros in North America.
I bet the 5'8" players that are playing in NHL would disagree. "Never" eh?
Ya all 7 of em.
Debrincat
Garland
Caufield
Arvidsson
Gourde
Zuccarello
Etc. these players are elite elite superstars. CW parents please please dont tell me you think your son is on any of there levels even at his age. These players were incredible at 16. CW is nothing like them.
Even in the OHL now there are a bunch of really really really good players who were never drafted or won’t even get drafted who are under 5’9. Kid is not any of the above.

Just because a player is tall doesn’t make him a phenomenal athlete or player lol you know how many tall AA players that are trying to make AAA and don’t? They try year after year. The parents have to pay

CW is arrogant. Hopefully the Scouts see through it
Scouts don't care, no one does. But I've been told that kids dad and the ex maple leafs dad run that coaching staff. (The ex d3 club hockey player coach and the obese guy coach). Heard the D coach is good. Stands to reason maybe trying to accommodate those dads and their players doesn't necessarily equal winning. Too bad that's how things work. From what I've watched cw kid is legit for u16 the maple leaf kid is grinder who coughs up the puck far to often in all 3 zones, nice shot. From jr b scout here.

It sounds like you’re holding onto a lot of bitterness and resentment. Maybe its because your wife hates you if she hasn't left you already. Take a step back and ask yourself why you spend so much time tearing down young athletes, coaches, and making up stories. In a month, this 2009 GTHL AAA thread will be gone, and you’ll have nothing left to fixate on. When the kids you’ve criticized get drafted high and if JRC wins the OHL Cup, their parents won’t be here gloating. Meanwhile, you’ll still be stuck in the same miserable cycle.

Once this thread is gone, I'll head over to the 2010 board and start my work there.
