Marlies 2-0 W; dominated the game.

Kings win 4-1 and Wings effectively take themselves out of series by going on a goon spree late in third; 22 gone for 3G, 46 gone for 6+ (incl abuse of official); not wise when you want to close out a series. That puts Kings likely back in drivers seat. Interesting.

Muise out for 6, Howes out for 6, one of the twins out for 7 - good job boys !

nice try muise gone for only 2 and howes most likly for rest of the year. now we will see how deep the trw are.

HOw many games did Muise really get?

The first posting is correct - Muise and Howes 6 games each, 7 games for the twin. I witnessed how truly sad, and I'm sure utterly embarassing for his parents, Howes's behaviour was on the ice - total loss of control, a temper tantrum from an adolescent with issues that need to be addressed - if you haven't already, coach and parents, take notice of the signs - that boy is screaming for help.

but yet muise and howes are still better hockey players then your kid.

I would agree with the last poster.
I like the way 46 plays - grit, intensity, and it seems like he really likes to play and wants to play; he's a guy you don't want to play against, BUT you've got to bottle all that up and use it for the SPORT only. Once it is allowed to spill over into after the whistle, after the game, after you've been tossed, then it truly is a loud cry for help.
The kid has great potential to play Junior, and that could help him later in life with job opportunities, schooling, etc, BUT if it isn't controlled now, then you could be talking problems with the law etc, and nothing good will come of that route.
Be tough, play tough, but know when to turn off the tough switch.

8:07 - you are correct .... but that's not the point man.
They DO have great skill, but how does that help them if they take the wrong route in life and end up in jail or with criminal records? They cannot turn back time then.
Help them control it now, and keep them playing better than my guy or most others, please.

Attitude is everything in hockey, the most skilled player in the world wont amount to anything if he isn't able to get his head right.

I agree its a pleasure watching those guys make plays, but their mindset is a ticking time bomb and may prevent them from moving up in the hockey world.

your telling me after all of the crap, 2 hands behind the play and most of all the bull**** Those 2 take, there not going to blow up sooner or later. Muise has the most points in the leauge by far and everybody still doubts him. 46 came half way through the season and look how much attention he has already. come on now, all the negative and no positive your ridiculous

Alright you want positive...#22 muise, best player in the league, art ross, scoring champ yes

wouldn't get the hart trophy because he leads his team towards self destruction.

everything he takes game in and game out, he had to blow up at least once. yes it wasent the right time i get that, but all im saying is that he's a great player to watch and everybody probably hates to play against him and to say hes not going further with hockey id say is wrong. and the same goes with howes as well

Your absoluetly right and thats why they get the attention they do, thats the only way to stop them

ok and thats probably why he's doing what hes doing

To soft for jr.

in jr the bull---- muise puts up with would be dealt with right quick and as for howes he would be able to scrap and not worry about getting 6 games. I've seen most of the games and they contolled themselfs really well considering that muise got 2 handed in the back of his legs every game.Of course it was behind the play and out of 3 refs no one caught it. The kings coaches had a plan and it took 4 games to achieve their goal. As for muise and howes they shouldn't of been on the ice at that point of the game. Hopefully the hockey gods are watching and the trw can come through because it would be a shame if the kings won when they have to play that kind of hockey.

'when they have to play that kind of hockey.'

Do you think that in Junior they'll just let young upstart kids come in and do want they want and dangle and taunt (as both 22 and 46 are famous for) without the behind the play stuff? You are not that naive are you? It will be 20x greater than what you are seeing right now, although when the ref seees it, he won't call anything - rules of the jungle. If they pull their taunting moves , it WILL be dealt with quick, I assure you, and not just with gentle tussling like you saw the other night.
Please. Think about what you write - reality awaits.

22 and 46 are both good players, skill wise, no doubt, but part of being a potential elite player with a chance at jr is focus and discipline, and they both have none. they are powder kegs on the ice. truly good players block out all the bs they make take, and remain focused on playing hockey and helping their team, not destroying at the worst possible time and effectively killing their team. 46 hits, but often as the second man in on someone already getting checked. 22 has absolutely no balls, taunts guys into fighting, then turtles like a little girl, always whining to the ref, always. they would get killed in jr with that attitude.

As I said before you can have all the tools of an elite player (passing, shooting, etc) and still end up in the beer leagues next to the kid who played house league his whole life....In the playoffs, I'd rather have a AA kid out there with the right attitude than a hotshot who thinks he's god's gift to midget AAA

I remember walking in on a game this regular season just at the moment Muise scored an unreal goal, an absolute snipe of a wrist shot, I was impressed so I kept watching, the more I watched I realized that he was playing like he was too good for his teammates and the game....I believe they lost. Especially when you are the best player and have the C on, what you do has a major effect on how the rest of your team performs. This is not just specifically about #22 but more of a general comment on hockey.


Just saying, don't worry I still think they're great players! They have the skills to go as far as their attitude will let them. I'm sure we will see some great hockey out of them for years to come in junior.

its funny all this talk about 2 guys who are ordinary players whose team ended up 5th and will lose in the 2nd round of the playoffs - there are much better players on the ice than those 2 and much better teams in the loop so why do you care ?

The Red Wings were the best Midget team in the league in each of the last 2 years. Last years Midget team was LOADED with OHL draft picks & they managed to lose in the 1st round to the 8th place team. The team has had discipline issues year after year. The twins have been a joke for years & any team that wanted to, could get them & their team off their game in a heart beat. Muise just picked this up from the rest of the clowns.

We're talking about to 1990 players who didn't make Junior this year. They should be better than most of the 1991 players out there. Muise has to work on his foot speed if he wants to play at the next level. Howes plays with lots of energy. I saw him fight this year and during the fight he went crazy after getting beat. He then went totally out of control and had to be forced off the ice.

I will keep this simple. Muise at least has some talent but Howes is ****.

do enough people feel better after anonymously taking stabs at these two palyers? sure muise doesnt have amazing footspeed, does your kid have nearly as many points as muise? If you were a junior scout and had to choose between muise and your kid, could you honestly pick your kid over him? both these players are 90's, hence why they are more talented than most of the league. And noone can tell a story of howse losing a fight, as the only time he was close to being in a real fight the nat player jumped him. You dont have to look very far to see why these two would get sucked in, they really dont belong, and they obviously have that decided in their head.

These 2 kids are cowards anyways, I've seen both of them get called on face to face and both of them backed down. It was during the christmas tournament and a kid on the opposite team called howie on and all howie did was chirp even though the kid ripped his cage off. Everyone is tough until there bucket or cage comes undone then it shows who the real men are.

Wright was a better adgitator than both of them, the things these 2 kids put up with everygame dosent even compare to what wright went through, after every period hed have bruises all over him it was insane. And still the best fighter weve seen in a long time We miss you buddy and what about a comeback season robbay?

Redwings need a miracle. Get through this series and Muise and Howes would be back for game 3 next series. The majors or marlies cant stop either one of these two teams, whoever wins this series is going to win it all.

76.68.112.48 I would pick my kid over Muise because he is younger, a better skater, doesn't party and goes to the gym when his friends are partying.

Muise can play and was drafted in the 7th round of the 2006 draft. He has good hands, can shoot off the rush and sees the ice. He can play Tier II right now. But if he wants to get to the OHL he just needs to get quicker.

no one should get upset about anonymous cheapshots when these guys ask for all the attention they get on here and on the ice. Have some class and resect and you will receive the same in return.

your a joke for saying you would take your kid over muise. he's probably nothing compared to him your just bad talking muise. Its midget AAA if i played there i would do the same thing muise is doing

at least you admit it, if you play prov jr A now, then I wouldnt guess youd get any further than that with that type of attitude, but hey at least you look good right

the whole point is that you can't act like your too good for something, whether thats the league, your teamates, your coach.... its all attitude

i guess we will see where he decides to play next year, and if it is junior im going to put my money down saying that none of these stunts will happen and he will put points up

muise once again showed what a melon-head he actually is trying to pick fights in the rink with 2 kings parents - once before the game and once near the end of the game - father also showed why his kid is a melon-head with his total lack of parenting skills.

i think we'll hear about this pair in the news one day, for the wrong reasons

2-0 Kings today.

Muise & Howes going at parents in stands. Very impressive. Head of International Scouting was there - I'm sure he was impressed.

Max is an ultramaroon.

Who is the Head of ISS and Why would he be at a Midget game?

some needs to tell these guys to leave it on the ice, this isn't gang warfare its hockey, you should have tried to win when you were still allowed on the ice.

To 99.239.88.118 do you think it's all over at Midget hockey?Their is always someone watching someone at any given night.Don't think that everything shuts down at Midget hockey.

what is an ultramaroon and why is Max one ?

i think he meant ultramoron (very stupid person).

You don't know what an ultramaroon is?

Are you some kind of deprived ignoranomous?

Marlies win agian 4-3 and the series is back even at 5-5

The tables they are a-turnin'!

6-4 Marlies
1-0 Kings

the marlies are playing amazing. the majors cant handle 2 lines...the series is over marlies win no chance for majors.patel got shut down.

Another winable game for the Majors.Goaltending is everything in the playoffs.

patel got shut down buddy what game did u watch he got 3 points last game.

Don't worry, all the tough guys who left town for the sun back soon. I don't like your chances of advancing, Marlies depth is quite obvious in the last three games and the coaches understand how to beat you, even with a short bench. All 1990's back in town for the last game. No turtling this time! Miracles do happen in the GTHL. Bye-Bye

2-0 Kings tonight.

No goals scored by TRW since they lost their minds in Game 4.

Wings hit the links.

I heard Max will be coaching the Peterborough Petes next year.

everybody knows if Muise and Howes were playing kings would never win. Even they know it. but thats not the case anymore.

Marlies: 'Don't worry, all the tough guys who left town for the sun back soon. All 1990's back in town for the last game.'

The mere fact that the marlies had vets leave on vacation when their team was in playoffs makes me sick. These aren't houseleague players. These are kids playing at the highest level in this league that had given a commitment to their coaches and team mates by signing on at the season's start. Says a LOT about their character, and that of their parents, that they would leave...and it isn't good.
Someone should list their names here so prospective Junior coaches will be aware.
If the Marlies coach has any balls at all, he would tell these deserters to stay at home. They've been winning without them. Teach them a lesson about commitment and team play. If he plays them, respect is gone - and it says what the coach thinks about the players left behind holding the fort.

To the previous poster, coach was well aware of this situation many months ago, this is a grad trip for most 1990's, you must be a parent with half a brain. Marlies coach is a teacher and understands why the players left. I as a parent am not happy with how the GTHL handles these affairs with the MARCH break. It goes on every year and so you know some of the marlie players did not make the gatineau trip because of school and that they still gave their all. So your comments mean nothing. Marlie coach has played everyone this year and my hat go off to the coaching staff for a amazing turnaround with this team. I am personlly sick of all the garbage I hear at the rinks. The tough guys that left town are ALL good players so you have fun to-night trying to beat 2/3 of a very good team. 3 wins in a row, this team has shown true character and heart as they did in gatineau. As for your negative comments you are part of the crowd who pays 5 bucks with your opinions on the line. Go get them MARLIES and this series has had many up and downs. And all the players will be back this week-end with the word TEAM on their chest.

That brings tears to my eyes.

It better!

That brought a fukking tear to my eye.

A sensitive and sensible man....you are, truly, the GTHL boyscout.

Everyone!....Give this man a big fukking hand.

Your pompous, righteous, pap, fukking nauseates me to death.

Get your gigantic fukking head out of your hole.

The Angry Man

Angry Man thanks for your reply, your a funny guy with big balls to boot! Never a dull moment with you and this age group. Just heard a private jet picking up all Marlies just left Mexico. So come watch the fun to-night.

99.243.25.54--what planet do you live on, man?
there is no excuse--none whatsoever--for these 90s abandoning their team at this point in the playoffs so they can head to the beach. when they come back, whether they have 'team' written on their chests or tatooed on their forehands, the marlies coach and the players who stayed behind and busted their balls should send those desserters into the stands with a little plastic pail and shovel to make sand castles. grad trip discussed at the beginning of the season or not, that is a stupid and selfish move that will be noted by any hockey organization with any credibility.

Thank you! Totally agree.
That poster - agreeing with kids abandoning their teams - is a bloody moron.
'how the GTHL handles this'
It's a hockey season. Is the OHL or NHL bad because they don't stop their season so players can go on holidays? You are a sad individual - sadly selfish; all about you eh?
'all good players who left'
Which makes it even more pathetic; key players and they bolt at the worst time. Your precious Marlies won those games, due to extra effort and hard work from those who stayed behind because of commitment. but what if they didn't? Did the others care? No. They left.
I've had 3 kids go through the 'G', all on good team typically one or all in playoffs at this time and as such we've never had a family March break BECAUSE WE MADE A COMMITMENT. Right or wrong in the long run; we haven't regretted it and the kids haven't regretted it. They've been raised to know that even considering going away is NOT an option. If you are not good to your word, what kind of a person are you? One year the only one still in playoffs was injured and could not play but we still stayed and attended every game - that's what team mates, and committed families, do.
Why don't you go ask those Marlie kids that stayed back and won those games for you if they would have LIKED to go away on March break if they hadn't made the commitment - of course they would, but they CARE.
Moron.

Your both 1991 parents making these comments, and I will say this to you. Schooling is the No.1 Priority and hockey is 2nd. Sorry both you parents have no life-skills to offer your children. The players that stayed are all great character kids that have responded to two super coaches. My son was sick over the thought of leaving and his coach assured him that he understood. People like you who walk into rinks are dime a dozen, STUPID, LIFESKILLS are what these players should be learning. At the Gatineasu tournament the players responded in a positive way just as in these play-offs. Avi is a one of a kind person with a big heart, that is the way this TEAM has played the whole year.

You are worng.
1990

Lifeskills - 'Son I want you to bail on your commitment to your team. You can do that later in life as well just to do whatever you want, at the expense of others, don't worry'
Nice. You sir, are the classless loser. Thank God you are NOT a dime a dozen, or all teams would have pulled out of competition in these playoffs due to lack of players.
Nothing to do with education - all the kids that stayed are doing their work and excelling.
Lifeskills - HA! Look in the mirror. You and the NY Governor are the same - you can rationalize anything eh?

Angry Man where are YOU! And sorry folks the Marlies coach gave my son some good advice this year and is better for it!

The Marlie's agenda is what it is.
How many fukking playoff games did that little prick Erlich miss in his stint as a Duke? Who fukking cares? Really.

There is no fukking morality in this game. There is no life-lesson to be learned. No life-skills to be garnered. A good number of the parents of the select few that make it are typically overbearing, obsessive, selfish, a-wipes, living their lives vicariously through their, soon to be, fukked-up kid(s).
But really, they are no different than the parents of a houseleague starter...
the first goal is a ticket to a leaf jersey. The swaggering and expectations starts early.
Hell, fill these boys with the pre-game anxiety, compulssion, dedication,
and commitment, that their fukked-up parents bring to the equation...and we would get some real hockey. Right, dad, mom?

Ya wanna get ahead in this game? Borrow your son's fukking knee-pads.

The Angry Man

Angry man I'm going to hook you up with Steve Simmons, you are both one of a kind. And to the 1991 parent, the ex govenor of New York is a personal client of mine!!!

This is not the NHL or OHL but another chapter to 1990's lifes, in which you do NOT have one A LIFE! Ka.....Boom!

I am neither a member of the GTHL or a parent of a 90 or 91, just an interested person watching who could possibly go to the Telus Regionals. I don't know why you are all fighting this one out. Bottom line any way you cut it the kids bailed on their TEAM. When those boys were selected to the team is was to go the distance, not leave because you have a grad trip. How many players over the years have had to give up their grad trip because of hockey playoffs, too many to count. I would suspect most of you know that the so called Grad Trips are trips the students put together themselves, they are not sanctioned school events. It is simply a bunch of kids who want to go away for March break and one of the student body takes it on to arrange, they usually go to Mexico or Montreal. Regardless if the coach knew earlier in the season and I can GUARANTEE you he would not have known till sometime in October (well after the team was picked), they should pay the price. I recall a few years ago the Junior Canadiens ran into a situation where at the Telus Regionals 3 or 4 of their guys took off in the middle of the regionals to participate in their Highschool OFFSSA, there was another team at the regionals, I think it was London and they had 4-5 kids that their highschool team was at OFFSSA too, Junior Canadian guys bailed and the London guys stayed. JC had a make or break game on the Friday to advance to semi's and their players showed up (because their highschool team was eliminated), coach told them to sit in the stands and if they did win the game they would be still sitting in the stands. Why because they bailed, they didn't CARE about their team only about themselves. JC's lost and didn't advance but I am sure those boys learned a valuable lesson about integrity, commitment and fair play. Hats off to the coach that stood his ground and thought first about the other players who chose to stay. I hope this coach makes the same decision instead of placating. The players that deserve to be on the ice are the ones that stayed and battled through.....

Agreed.
(ka-boom)

why not allow the kids that stayed behind have a closed-door vote as to whether or not they want the deserters back

Coach of that Jr.C. is a complete jerk who has his Fingers up the wrong hole, if you knew some facts on that team you might change your mind. That organization only cares about winning, thats it, thats why thoughs players sat. They are all jerks for doing what they did to the players that sat . Bad example and the 1991 parents on this site yours sons will not survive the jungle out in the real world. Marlies coach developed ALL the players this year doing it his way! That is the reason for the success on this team. My son worked the whole summer for this trip and this was his decision and the coach gave him some sincere advice. This team is amazing even the people who didn't believe it would still be in the fight. You losers out in the jungle have fun eating your banana's and feeding your coaches money......! Ka....Boom! and Avi does care about all his players on this team!

you should have spent some of your money on english lessons

Nice story about the Jr Cdn's & the high school players abadoning them.

Just some corrections.

The OFSAA players were from St. Mikes, they left the Junior Cdn's when they were in the GTHL finals & down 2 games to 1 to North York. They ended up winning the GTHL & with the help of some 1990 callups to replace the players that abandoned their team, went on to win the Telus cup regionals. They then went to PEI for the Telus Cup where they lost in the bronze medal game.

Their St. Mike's ex-team mates lost the OFSAA championships in Fort Frances.

Now reference the above story. You have a few players that had to decide between 2 different hockey teams. The GTHL knows all about the OFSAA championships & in my opinion they can ensure they are completed by those dates (which are set a year in advance).

The Marlie kids in question were not deciding between 2 teams, they were deciding between their team or partying at the beach. Those are the priorities they have chosen. Lets not sugar coat it, that was their decision & I guess they prefer the partying at the beach. Nothing wrong with that, I'm envious, but it does establish their priority of choices & should be taken into consideration on any future teams they may look at.

Actually you are speaking of a different year. The OFFSA was in Windsor and Jr. Canadians did not win the Regional, SSM did. Jr. Canadians didn't make it too the medal rounds as said in my previous post their Friday game was a decider they had to win, yet the coach sat the players who left to go to Windsor. I wasn't aware this happened again in Fort Frances

i agree partying vs highschool hockey, however principal is the same. you made a commitment, live by your commitment. if your not going to then be prepared for the consequences....and there should be some. Those boys are doing great without them, leave it that way.

then I guess if your son worked all summer for this trip then you the Dad, the responsible one should have taken him aside and told him that if he was planning on going on a trip during March then maybe he should consider playing Midget AA or houseleague because if he made a commitment to a AAA team then he would need to follow his commitment through both for himself and his teammates. looks like the apple didn't fall far from the tree. As a parent it is important to distinguish good behaviour from bad, you are taking this personally instead of looking at the facts...I am sure if you were sitting in the other parents and players shoes you wouldn't be painting the same picture

It's official: 99.243.25.54 is an idiot.
Let's leave it at that.

the kids should absolutely have decided one way or the other LAST SUMMER and should have played at a lower level if partying is more important to them.

haha this is pathetic, whoever defends this type of attitude should be thrown in with the rest of them, I would never want to hire, work with or be on a team with people of this nature and dont try to tell me otherwise

ok ok, who put the picture of my chinese friend on this website??

angry man?

haha this is pathetic, whoever defends this type of attitude should be thrown in with the rest of them, I would never want to hire, work with or be on a team with people of this nature and dont try to tell me otherwise

Buddy, your probaby a bum who still lives at home with your mama, these players are coming home happy and tanned and alive. People on this site today, I still can't believe the low lives on it, except you Angry man, you are all CLASS. Buddy go eat your banana's and I pray your children do not land up in the jail.

Buddy, your obviously missing the whole point, tanned and happy is all fine and dandy, but what is a man worth if he doesnt keep his word?? Not much

"the ex govenor of New York is a personal client of mine!!!"

AHAHAHAHA, your a fukking joke, a "personal client" huh?, sounds intimate

listen buddy, why dont you go fukk yourself and try not to choke on some of the **** that flows freely from your mouth

I am right you do live at home with your mama, and you have missed the point, all these players are going nowhere and the coach been a class act and understands why they left. They are all coming back for their team-mates have one goal, to win the championship. What a loser you are!

how come when angry man told you to go fukk yourself you practically offered to suck his dick, but when i do it you call me a loser??

and no, I live with your mama

Sorry my mama wouldn't take you in, street people live on the street and you are one, angry man where are you! Math is not my favourite subject, but in this case the losers are the ones who do understand why the 1990's left town on their grad trip. You must be a member of the Jr. C. club who preach its all about me! Angry Man I predict with the fresh bodies the Marlies are getting back, Marlies in 6 over the Kings. Buddy go find a girlfriend and stay away from your kid, Bad parenting at its best!

99.243.25.54 is calling anyone names that won't agree with him that quitting on your team is good parenting.

The math is simple:

go on vacation during AAA playoffs = quitter

Bad parenting. Poor life skills.

Fukk!

The only life lesson of any importance to a 16/17 year old?
When in Cuba, remember to put a fukking bag on your pin when your tossing-it into the jovencitas!


Let that be a lesson to all of you!


The Angry Man

no wonder you agree with 54

It is really sad to observe the poor behaviour on this thread. It is likely that the deal was cut to go on the grad trip prior to the season. All these boys were recruited to the Marlies and came as a pack probably going to the coach who who concede to their requirements. Make no mistake: none of these players have higher hockey aspirations and all will go to university next year.

I think Majors will respond tonight and win it 10 pts - 8pts. ( Yes - for you math challenged I am predicting a tie on Saturday)

Off to the game.....

dats great chit mang

I can't believe all the retards on this site. It's fukking simple; bench the pricks who left, in fact put them in the stands. Play the guys who are committed, win or lose.

simple

When all the grad trippers were in the lineup the Marlies couldn't win a game.
If they are all back for game 8 do you really think they will be in the lineup?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Let me guess? The marlie frat boys were back in the line-up last night? The score was 6-3 for Markham Majors. Looks good on the nice guy coach with no balls. Put them back in the line up and take the boys who stayed "out of the game" by going back to the guys who were firing beach balls and pushing back beer shots all week.

Did you hear Don Cherry's commentary this morning?Check it out.

Where?

what did he say?
