I think once they drop to AA, you don't need to keep referring to them as AAA players. Hopefully those kids who dropped down are having more fun now than they had before. I assure you this pressure of being expected to carry a team doesn't help. It's a team sport, the good teams will stay good because they play well as a team. The DMF kid who dropped is a very skilled player and he joins MI that has been having a solid season. Hopefully he makes them better as opposed to disrupts a good thing already going.
New predictions entering the home stretch:
1) TRT – Holding strong on top, will be tough to beat.
2) MI – Having a good season. A couple more good pieces could put them on top next season.
3) NYK – Always building for the play-offs.
4) FH – Looking burnt out.
5) NT – On the rise and hungry. Beat FH yesterday. Beat TRT last week. Sleeper pic for playoff upset.
6) SYB – Not progressing. Consistency is the issue.
7) EE – Need to rebuild.
8) SIR – Need to rebuild if possible.
This is an interesting list. Looks pretty accurate actually.
A bit unrealistic I'd say. There's a 10 point gap between SYB and NT with 8 games (9 for SYB) left to play. NT is doing well, but I'm not seeing that gap dissappear. And FH, not likely to fall below the Knights, but there's a chance.
The season will end pretty much as it is now
1. TRT
2. MI
3. FH
4. NYK (up from 5)
5. SYB (down from 4)
6. NT
7. EE
8. SIR

looks like the AAA kid did the job in the game tonight. MI won 4:0
Unhealthy obsession you got going here. Any love for your own kid? Glad this new kid is getting all the ice time at the expense of your kid developing. But hey, you are 'winning'

MI ‘s rise this year has been pretty impressive. I heard the head coach is leaving next year. Hopefully , you guys can keep adding to your team next year and keep moving upwards.
The kid and dad are great additions and well known by many existing families on the team. This is not your standard "one year 3rd liner AAA" drop down, he's a top AAA kid.
If he was a top AAA kid, he would not haven been on that AAA team. Keep stroking daddies ego there bud. But let's be honest, he was not a top kid in the G
it doesn't matter. he comes down to AA and is the top in the loop now and plays as he wants.
Hahahahaha he is not top in the loop haha
what team was he on before?
Don mills Flyers
Powerhouse team in AAA
The coach in DMF is a garbage coach. Every 2011 AAA kids know that. No coaching, no wisdom, no fairness. The same happened in 2022. He lead the whole star kids in Titans and did not win any game in the second half of season.
