How's the team shaping up?

Are the Halton players who played in tge G last year getting their releases for next year or are they playing in Halton?

playing in the o!

In stead of feeding into big daddy's ego little Johnny should just play at home in his own center. There are rules, Eddie Greenspan challenged them a couple years back and was losing the battle when the two families he was representing bailed on him, if it wasn't for generous coaches granting releases succumbing to pressures from Big Ego Daddy's then Johnny would be just as happy playing at home. At 11 years old Johnny's best friends are close to home!

A "cut" player can go elsewhere to develop if another center wants to fill a spot with a import, the premier players should be guarded and held to their home centers.

Ask many NHL'rs, Jeff O'Neill is one of them!

Ok Stalin, what kind of a moronic statement is that. We live in Canada, freedom of speech, freedom of choice... No where else in society are things like residency rules enforced except minor hockey. You know I hope you work in Halton because if you live there thats where you should be employed regardless if you can go some where for a better pay, program... Residency is plain stupid! Run a good program people will want to stay, I believe Halton does, but many don't! Why should you have to stay there? Think before you speak. Your wife not allowed to speak unless spoken to first I bet.

lets call them the georgetown hurricanes!

Wajit and Downwinder.....is that you??

That's what I said, stated the facts Jack, rules are there, to be obeyed, you don't want to obey the rules hire Greenspan, and give it the college try, and let your kid gather rust until October when you give up, after spending thousands on appeals, Johnny's better in his home center, not in the G feeding your ego!

Please don't compare the rules in the OMHA to Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those "good 'ole' boys", the OMHA just knows and has a proven record of what is best for Johnny his family and his development as a person and a player, the GTHL has never had the best interests of a family or a player unless they can exploit them, prove otherwise Mr Ego.

whats going do tell?

Same coaching staff???

free jackets and car repairs,you figure it out!

Who is the mechanic???

canadian tire in georgetown!now do you get it!

Actually no - who is the mechanic?

call the coach,I'm sure he'll tell you

How can I you havent said who the coach or staff is!! DAAAA

it's on the website,check it out,same guy as last year.

I thought you could tell me because you seem to know soooo much about the team.

oh I can but you should work a little!Besides it is probably you!Good luck next year!

no just think you are crazy with your comments

Must be an OMHA rep, exec member, or someones who's kid is mediocre at best. Residency is in no other sport, do you hear none. Not in Baseball, Basketball, girls hockey, soccer, badminton, golf, tennis, swimmers... Still lots of great athletes in other sports go to training facilities or programs that can better their kids, but morons like you still stuck in the past.

Easy DR

"lets call them the georgetown hurricanes!"

Why? Their best players are from Orangeville, Oakville and Stoney Creek!!!!!!!!

There are residency rules in baseball too.

control of the teams is by georgetown clan!

"control of the teams is by georgetown clan!"

true but they know where their bread is buttered

How are tryouts going?

were the 2 marlies at the tryouts ?

not there
not needed
not wanted

not needed. Good one

Is the team made yet? Many changes?

and he looked great on D

this team will start out on fire,and than fizzle out,oh ya that's what happened last year!!!LOLLOL

Is Halton still refusing to release players to the 'G' ?

releases?
refusing the moron's

Good - I think that kids should play where they live.

Looks like most centres are adhering to the OHF policies and keeping their talent at home. Hamilton is going through the same thing. There is alot of controversy over this but it needs to be done in every centre. I guess Oakville isn't so bright though. They let the floud gates open and let kids leave but they make it very difficult for imports to come in.

Kids should be able to play where they want. What happens when there is a coach who never plays your kid and the organization refuses to listen! You are stuck and in a bad situation. But you would not care because you only think about yourself. Please keep all kids in the area so we can have the best team possible, even though the kid is miserable and will probably quit hockey because he hates the situation. But then you will be happy, right? Mission accomplished, another kid who will never play hockey again.

If your kid isn't being played then maybe it is time for your kid to go down a level.

not good enough for your team,than why would you care where these kids go?scared it might bite you?If not than follow oakville and let the kids choose!

with moronic thoughts and ideas......rules are rules, if you get cut get your F1 and develop somewhere else, the marque players should be held in their own center until age 13, free agents in M/bantam.

how does the team look, last cuts are tonight - 96 Hurricanes

Improved in net,
on Defense,
and on the wing.
We'll be fine!
Thanks see you in September!

Didn't most players return. If they did, was there any real competition at tryouts to take away spots? How many new players?

1 new D
1 new F
1 new G

Who was cut to make room for these new players? I know WC chose not to tryout for G, but who are the D and F? And where will they be playing?

I don't know but 7:20 said where the changes happened

who cares, no one of any calibre went there, hurricane parents trying to pimp there team so they can be on the website,,,, like anyone cares

Who was cut? Is that a difficult question?

The 3 gone were goalie WC who left b4 tryouts, defense JM and forward TG

Thanks...already heard through the grapevine...no big upgrades...look forward to seeing you on the mountain!

RE 1997 Canes..........Team is going with 7F and 4D.

Just spoke with Halton's 96 coach and his boy is going to play on both 97&96 team. He is a 97, but he is taking a free ride with the 97 team. He can only play 5 games after January and he will make his decision on what team to stay on then.

Just left the coach's house and his son is playing 96 only. He isn't going with 7 and 4 he is going with 9 and 5. Why do people try and lie about stuff they dont know?
But I did hear that brampton is wearing pink uniforms the year!!!

Brampton pink will go well with your powder blue duds...it'll be real cute watching the kids play!

Is that the same powder blue that beat out Brampton in 3???

Whatever...what colour did you wear in the two previous years...oh yeah, your kid didn't play for Halton did he?

Sounds like a Brampton parent, better watch out bitter boy you are revealing your true colours. Orange ,red, purple, yellow and green( that would be with envy)

Nope...quite happy right where we are!

How is Niagara Falls, are you going over in a barrel yet??

Nope...quite happy right where we are!

each year falling a place or two in the standings, gunning for forth this year?

good luck!

Here's an idea. Instead of living your lives and measuring your worth through your kid's AAA hockey teams, why don't you sit down and compare what really matters...Bank Account and Quality of Wife. If tied, go out back of the areana an compare length and girth. If still tied....sword fight.

read that last post....that's what drug abuse gets you!

Maybe if you hit the bong once in a while you'd mellow out. DUDE...relax.

PINK???? NOT WITHOUT CHECKING WITH Brampton ring leader J.D. first!..LOL

The perks of being a coach. Just don't tell that the the kids who were cut to let him play on two teams.

Or the '97 moms and dad's that are paying his fees so that he can be a hired gun.

why all the negative talk did your kid get cut. I don't see you on the ice helping out

OK STOP WITH THE COACHES SON. HEISNT PLAYING 97 AT ALL, TRUST ME. WHY WOULD HE GO BACK A YEAR AND PLAY THERE?

Yeah. give it a rest. My son was one of the last cuts on forward on the 96 team, if not the last. No one in our family is complaining. It was a well run tryout and seemed very fair to us. The competition was high due to a good talent pool. Good luck to the team next year.

are you for your real, the last kids cut were hurricane players from last year, and the talent pool was AA
not many players out and most cuts done first night
give it a rest

so how does this team look now? They were a very good team last year -- how do they compare?

stronger

how are they stronger? the replaced their last F, last D and last goalie nuttin' added to top. is s creek kid back?

Yes S Creek kid back goalie bigger, forward not affraid and defense smarter

Who is helping JC? Heard defense coach cant, why?

Take the halton dad back please have dealt with him only a couple of times not normal. The kid can stay but take back the dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we know hockey better then anyone else!
we also know the value of a good coach and playing in our own home town!
our mothers are pretty and are cool too!
