RP made zero adjustments in the series. Each game the spread of goals got larger and play was so heavily lopsided in JrC favour. JT out coached, out smarted and made RP look like a rookie. RP was frustrated and had no answer for JT or JrC.

Wiser words have never been spoken. Might I add that you can’t play chess when you’ve got the pieces to play the game. To the point earlier; it starts with having the right pieces who play the game the RIGHT way and buy into TEAM first…. Not agent and ego. And at the end of the day everyone needs to take ownership and an accountability for what they are bringing to the table; out coached or not……. SHOW UP AND COMPETE!!! EFFORT the only thing that shows up on the ice and most times it takes a second and third effort! Play brave and courageous …. The video doesn’t lie. When you allow people to walk in and crash the net where there’s no F coverage backchecking no D holding the line and stepping up and watching the other F crash the net; generally ends poorly. Marlies had the best goalie in the loop last year he won team MVP last season and cut him on a hunch for someone better. Marlie org deserves better representation ALL around. If people stopped chasing the crest, parents stop influencing and in general corruption ceased and you go back and let kids out compete and earn their spots….. you might serve the history of the org better. Save the super team nonsense for spring hockey. Can’t allow it into the season
Too many D outside of G that are legit studs!! And don’t have a hope because of this….and it’s not just one team. Own it people the league is allowing too much influence and orgs pay the price and ultimately kids loose out on the life lessons the game is supposed to teach. And yes experienced coaching helps.

I agree, RP had no answer for JrC. Seemed like Marlie players just wanted the season to be done with..

Rp player match ups terrible all serious. Jrc 8 dominated the serious and tm had no answer. Despite scoring goals for the serious the contest was no match. Jrc total domination start to finish. 10 goals and 7 goals is horrific and should be a wake up call for tm offseason to address goaltending and defence further. Tm 10 so called stud proved that he can’t handle the load of leading the back end like 2 vk does on. Nightly basis. Hes flashy of course but top D in loop questionable. 17 goals against 2 games marks for to many holes and any stud D should be able to protect that much better.

17 ga in 2 games isn’t just a d or g problem.
I don’t care what “stud” you have back there.

It’s not about d g or f problem both games were 1 goal difference going into the third. TM didn’t have the depth to go the distance against the deeper teams. From what I hear on here they will be deeper next season. I think TM gave all they had to win a first round that everybody thought they’d lose. Unfortunately for TM that was their championship. Coaches built a full new team in 3 months and finished in the top 4 in playoffs I'd consider that a success. Will see what next season has to bring for all. It will be the one that matters most. Good luck to all.

Until you play in the league your OMHA star has no idea what kind of player he is. He will become mid pack right away. This is the best league in the world and unless you are in it you won’t understand. I’m thinking about bring my guy to the OMHA to become a 150 point player for next year.

Well said. Yes next year will be the first year that means something for these kids.

I wish we had our old goalie
Sens cut

JR one of the best goalies in 2010 group. Doing special things for CRC. Would make a great no 1 in G on any top contenders. He carried Sens

Best league in the world? lol… pretty certain it’s not even if it is in your opinion, facts don’t lie. More players are scouted and drafted outside the G like the OMHA you speak of. What does that tell you. Should be a wake up call that people that make decisions in hockey see the silliness and stick to the basics and draft the best players and not the ones influencing minor hockey decisions with a lack of integrity.

No way KS doesn’t go back to back with the other one and ride him through the finals.

If 14 wasn’t -5 and played D and not all over the ice maybe the goalie wouldn’t need to be changed . No iq, goon on wheels, AA at best go back to oakville with 22 Both are culture killers. Daddy’s money not getting you into the show let alone round one draft pick.

Better then #10VK who chose to sit and watch cause he’s got a little boo boo. Gutless and lacks character. Suck it up it’s playoff time. Everyone is beat up. MS should tell him to stay home next game. Rest up pop tart. Obviously his mouth is bigger then his heart. Chirping from the bench embarrassing.

What a piss off. Things will be better next year with LR and hill 6

#6 dad what a loser chasing BR wherever he goes. It’s U16 dumbass you haven’t figured out your own path yet.

Dad might be a loser but I don’t get get it. LR and hill 6 has never been on the same team. LR Niagara Oakville and Marlies playing up. Thought hill 6 Marlies and hill in his own age group. Don’t think they’ve ever played together.
[/quote]

Love this feel good movement.
I know Hill6 and LR have never played club hockey but have played alot of spring hockey together just like many others have. I know they are good friends so why not play spring tighter. Only way for the boys to hang out. They’ve always choose separate paths though for club hockey since I’ve known them. I think people are curious as to where they both would end up in U16. Many people on mht would make statements like the op even though they don’t truly know them or the situation. BR and Hill6 will make the best decision for their sons when the time comes. Like us we all hope we have done the same.
Let’s change the narrative. Let’s stay positive people.
[/quote]

Literally no one cares. Also, if you're looking for positivity - get off MHT.
[/quote]

CJ ….. you really gotta stop the shenanigans; way too transparent. Y’all need some humility . 15 Sens and DD Sudbury best and most elite in Ontario period. Stop the nonsense of LR and Hill6; ain’t nobody got time for that. You left G for a reason
[/quote]

Ok you got me. Thank you for listening to me. We are not playing any shenanigans. We left the G but now ready to return. We were worried the hitting in minor bantam so we had to leave. The Hill will be horrible next year so we will follow BR again but this time to the Senators. Yes Hill #6 and LR will be a Miss Sens. The line up will be an amazing and will be a contender to take it again next year.
