Beast outplayed VP and should have won.

MNS outplayed VR, could have been a 3-4 goal differential.

You watch too much live barn and your hate of Vaughan is showing.

I can’t speak to the first game but I did think NS was the better team in the second.

Their defencemen are very offensive minded which helps the team a lot. Their goalie was alright.

The Rangers looked fine and I think they can and will surprise some of the teams in the round robin. It feels like they will make it thru.

I now understand the Disney on Ice joke, that would drive me bananas as the coach. Boy can skate for sure but figure 8s don’t usually have a role in hockey.

Agree MNS were the better team. However the bench was shortened by the middle of the second. 10 or 19 are there only real players. 4 can skate but doesn’t make anything happen. Just dipsy doodles until he loses the puck.

I don’t agree with shortening bench so early. Play as a team win/lose as one as well, at this age anyways. Last 3 to 5 mins go for the gold. But not half way through the game.

Actually VP is civilized. They're well respected.
VR is full of the wild ones- watched too much jersey shore growing up.

Second this.

Never a problem with the VP parents, before during or after the game.

VR different story and goes to the coaching too.

What's wrong with VR coaches or parents? Their parents differ from others only by being slightly louder. But what else would you expect from a group that is 95% Italian? That said, unlike some other teams I won’t name, I haven’t seen drunk fathers or loud, offensive mothers yelling at referees or opposing teams.
Comparing VR to MNS (whose parents are also very nice), VR's players are stronger on average, while the top kids on both teams are of similar skill. MNS has the better goalie. Key difference is that VR gives all players ice time. I’ve never noticed them prioritizing anyone, whereas MNS plays to win, meaning some kids get significantly more ice time than others. This approach is good for the league in general, as it raises the level of competition, helps secure victories for MNS when top players are not absent, but isn’t great for overall development or team depth.
Despite being a skilled team, VR seems to lack a winning mentality or self-confidence. If the coaches address this issue or if it naturally corrects itself the team will rise higher in the standings.

This is all fair but the top MNS kids are much better than anyone on VR. No C as good as 10 or 19. No D as good as 4 or 9 or 15.
