Let's start fresh!

ok.

please rate teams, coaches and ranks.

MB TOP TEAM NUFF SAID
HH WILL PUT UP A GOOD FIGHT WHEN THEY MEET

the rest is HL

1:54. They might put up a good fight against the MH. My money is on the Hornets though.

Go ahead big spender, your loss.

i'll take that bet , hornets over the braves.

I think people look way too critically on this team sometimes. Is it really a bad thing that we don't have a 50 goal scorer?. Everyone on this team can produce, and I would rather have a well-rounded team than a team where everyone sucks except a few guys on the first line. I'm proud of our Huskies.

THANKS COACH.

I am a parent.

THANKS MOM!

St will be vastly improved and challenge for 5th

doubt that. don't you think the stron have gotten stronger and the weak weaker?

yes

East:

NYK
SYB
North Toronto
Rangers
TAeros
Markham
Leaside
Penguins
TCB
Summits
East Enders

Run away from ST

What was up with the guy saying ST managers and coaches stole?

East:

1st or 2nd : NYK or SYB (probably in this order but who knows)
3rd to 8th : NT, GPR, TA, MARK, Lside, HS (not in any order)
9th to 11th: Pens, TCB, EE (not in any order)

Sorry meant to say Hornets will beat the Huskies. MB too strong for either team.

441, he was comparing them to other teams that had bigger problems. Nothing was stolen.

Here is the posting, read slowly and carefully

"Yes, stay away from Streetsville, they only been around for 60 years.
And their coaches/managers steal, no wait that was the Canucks 96. And their team had to rebuild from scratch, no wait that was Humberview, North Stars and Hornets (98s). And when there were coaching issues the team folded, no wait that was the Hornets 97. And their coaches are the only ones bashed on this site, no wait Terriers, West Mall, Hornets, Devils, IceDogs, Royals, etc (98s) have all been bashed.

Streetsville is a great organization the supports their teams through thick and thin. Once you've been around the league long enough you'll understand. Swallow your bitter pill instead of continually choking on it."

250, no.

Lots of teams got weaker: HH, DD, MT, MH, all from each level last season
But this is all hear-say, we wont know until the season starts and we see how they play against each other.

Dont drag the 97 Hornets into your sewer. At least they were smart enough to get out.

It is nobodies sewer, it is a fact and was used for comparison. Smart enough to get out, was that before or after the team was signed. We could even add 98 Sens to the list.

There were no issues with coaching or anything else. Kids were outclassed and most went to the level they belonged. If all the wannabee AA parents are happy where they are let them live there own lives. It is their problem not yours.

Good glad to hear it, stealing from the team would have to be the lowest, slimest,

Who stole what from who?

96 Canucks, old news. The Hardwicks stole around 20k (can't remember exact number) for their team during a 2 year period.

What kind of dirt bag steals from kids and parents who sacrafise for their kids to play

The Hardwicks

Don't mind sharing a thread with the West it makes for good banter and chats about next seasons predictions, but if you want to carry on your on seperate thread about specific teams why don't you start your own thread. Sheesh!

2007/2008 ETA Season
April 7th, 2008
The ETA has had another amazing season. After 1892 league games and 403 playoff games the ETA has won 7 of the 9 OMHA Championships. Congratulations the the following winners... more[+]

11:42 - This thread is called 98AA GTHL - therefore it includes both east and west - why do you want to limit it to the east? How do you know that this thread was intended for the east, unless of course, you are the one that started it???

54 days as of Wednesday for the MEB

hey 5:06 reread the post...

I said I like the banter of chatting about both sides. What I don't like is when it goes off on a tangent about one team, or one coach, or one parent for 20 posts. If someone wants to chat about a specific team that's super duper. Just start their own thread.

well it's all about making you happy...

July 16th

60 years how many championships? How many kids stayed with you for the entire time they played hockey? Derbys left you. Now as far as the post you made you should never under any circumstances say anything about stealing. Also the bashing you talk about, the coachs from this team did their fair share too. Stop acting like you haven't bashed a little yourselfs ST parent. the word hypocrite come to mind

lol

Man, that guy just can't let it go. You are b-r-u-t-a-l.

647 just because coach didnt pick ur little son doesnt mean you have to bash ST. There a great orginization and why are you talking bout the derbys what does that have to do with it?????

TAs will rock you!!!!

I wouldn't put my son on that team after being at their tryout. Now that was SAD

which team TA?

LF or NT

I see 98 TCB's managers name "DB" on a canlans 3 on 3 team. Is this the AA TCB team???

no i think DB just tothrew a bunch of kids together. probably a couple tcb but thats it.

heard it was most of the team for next year.

watched them play, they should be what most have been saying, 9-11th next season

What has the competition been like? any other league teams entered?

isnt that group playing in the A loop for 3 on 3?

youre saying this like it is news. We all know where they will wind up, stop stirring the pot.

48 days until Mississauga Early Bird

and for the east about the same # of days to the Hillcrest Tournament.

Either one won't mean much. Last year the NYKs nor MB won the early bird and they seemed to do ok.

mb won

FINAL BRAVES VS H. VALLEY 5-0

ST will win it all

Thanks funny guy, another valued contribution from a non-ST parent

We have improved D, better goaltending, got rid of all our problems we have new focus.

Don't oversell yourself, this is the wrong place to do it. Show it on the ice and not on the blog boards.

This is not a ST parent. Just someone trying to get anohter thread started on this team. No one is predicting anything. We will see how it goes.

It would be kind of pointless, has been discussed to death.

I've said before that I don't believe ST parents post on here.

So the point in setting up another thread would be to allow "posers" to strip the team (or any team for that matter) apart? Been done already, not worth the time for any team unless actual parents set them up themselves outside of this site. Free from abusive rantings of pot stirrers and angry parents that were cut from the team, not asked back or left via their own accord.

Too many people that read this stuff get too caught up in "the game" and don't understand how to separate the fiction from the reality, there is far too much fiction, almost science fiction on this site. If you are going to live in here then you need a good sense of humour, a good understanding of your limitations and a thick skin.

Any east teams in the MEB?

It'a shame but it looks like NYK, SYB nor NT are in MEB or HS tournaments. At least we could get a look at what they look like and stop all the ramblings and musings on these threads. I wouldn't say that they're scared, I don't know their schedules. It looks like NYK is in the Pre-Season Blast at Canlan in late August. Niagra , Oshawa North Bay teams .Maybe that's their early bird?

NYK and SYB were not in the MED last season, but NT was.

These are my predictions for the coming season

Biggest Surprises - DD, HH, MT, and ID

Biggest Disappointments - NS, WML, VP, and VR

TOP 3 teams - MB, MJ, and HVS

Bottom 3 teams - TE, MH, and TR

Teams ready to go KABOOM!!! - ST, MH, and WML

CHAMPIONS - MB over the MJ in a close one!

CLANCY CHAMPIONS - WML

I like it but the only thing that will hold DD and HH back is all the baggage. ID can be good if they can adjust to no hitting. All of these teams have underagers not they are not good but they will struggle the rest of their team mates have been shown that team work wins games they have come from a group where half the goals are scored by going end to end
.

Well a big surprise could be a team that is expected to do nothing or expected to disappoint and they do better than expected. With HH, some have predicted that they will fall to as low as 14th. I am just saying that they will surprise if even a little.

Biggest surprise HH going from first to last in one season.

Good summary

These are my predictions for the coming season

Biggest Surprises - DD, HH, MT, and ID: Question: What do you mean by biggest surprises? HH will be nothing compared to last season, the rest should be more or less the same give or take 1 or 2 game differences in standings from the previous year.

Biggest Disappointments - NS, WML, VP, and VR: Maybe, depends on what they were shooting for.

TOP 3 teams - MB, MJ, and HVS: This was an easy one.

Bottom 3 teams - TE, MH, and TR: Also an easy one

Teams ready to go KABOOM!!! - ST, MH, and WML: Not sure why, all 3 have been pretty quiet lately. Any noise has been coming from ex-members. Kaboom teams: EC and WBH, already gone

CHAMPIONS - MB over the MJ in a close one! Maybe, I wouldn't count HVS out of the picture. MJ should have upgraded since 1 or 2 strong players would have helped them big time.

CLANCY CHAMPIONS - WML: Would this be an accomplishment since this coaching staff was the runner up in the 2008 Clancy to the TID?

ST,MH,WML can go kaboom based on the coach issues, one moves every year, one has never coached and one has recruiting problems. The rest I like HVS needs to become more consistant

You are right about HVS and I didn't mean to slight them. They could be in the final after knocking out one of MJ and MB.

1038, I don't think any of them have coaching issues at this moment. It appears that people who left have bigger issues. This is the make or break year for all 3 since, ST coach needs to prove that he can coach, MH coach also has to prove he can coach and WML coach needs to stay in one spot for more then one year.

What about the Toros?

mid-pack

Right, thats funny

what baggage, for HH And DD???
