I've been to a few skates and have contacted others. These are my observations...

Panthers - believe it or not there was plenty of good talent at their skate last weekened.

Rangers - mostly select players and plenty of Goulding kids out.

Attack - coach non-responsive

Avs - was told to come to tryouts in May

Sharks - told to contact following playoffs

Eagles - told to come to tryouts but they may do a skate prior. There will be spots.

WM - no interest based on stories I've heard.

GPR ... believe they are recruiting via open borders ... but normally bottom of the standings year after year.

Willowdale ... new parent coach ... a bunch of turnover with team ... parent coach seems like a good guy and a knowledgable coach so improvements could be seen

YM ... who knows ... but they relied too heavily two seasons ago on a player that went to AA this past season and they over valued their team and crashed this year ... doesn't seem like they want to make some tough decisions on their team

Knights ... new coach ... replacing some of their weaker players ... should be better

Islanders ... dumpster fire ... new coach coming in is old Panther coach ... I'd stay away

WH ... rumour is that they are bringing in a bunch of AA players

Leaside .. haven't heard much

Ted Reeve ... only looking at AA players coming down

Aeros ... rumours of parent/dressing room issues ... read some of the posts coming out of the playoffs ... player left mid season and also during playoffs... but team always seems to do well though

Forest Hill ... rumour of top scorer coming down from AA team ...

VRE ... not sure ... but invite only to skates

NT ... not sure

SIR ... maybe one change... haven't heard of skates ... focused on finals.

SIR getting stud goal-scorer from MI

GPR - will be much of the same
WH - they picked up about 4x AA kids, but they are really A level players from LF and EE (EE kid hardly sees the ice), had a skate last week looked ok.
TRT - picked up TRT AA players, again they will be about the same
SIR - added 2 players, no skates

Guessing this is the weaselly VRE dad that was yelling at the sIR bench or is it the VRE goalie dad yelling at the VRE bench. Klass act VRE… Klassy with a K.

That typically is what happens when a team falls asleep for two minutes in the 3rd and allows the other team to tie the game, when by then it should have been running time. Cudos to VRE for not giving up, and their goalies making some of the most unbelievable saves to keep the game within reach.

And as always, the classy VRE dad who at the beginning of the game, with no animosity anywhere, saying loud enough for everyone to hear " get those dirty mother f *ckers"
