who looked good?

Your wife

zing!

i hear these guys are taking little LS kid!! hes not even a good 2000! Plus vickys son! plus hughes son! and good old VP son! good luck pro!

Surprised?

heard VP was yelling on the bench during scrimmages, him and LS lol

VP, VP, LS.

Who else is on the team?

No LS on Brick team

No one the team isn't picked yet. Check back in January

bring your wallet for the next try-out. have you payed 5 grand yet to try-out?

Too many selfish people associated with this group for them to succeed. All these people care about is themselves and their own child.

JH the coach has lot a lot of respect since moving to PH. This team will be a mess!

Tryouts are just a money grab for PH and JH.

i hear these guys are taking little LS kid!! hes not even a good 2000! Plus vickys son! plus hughes son! and good old VP son! good luck JH hope your happy.

Why did JH jump ship? I thought he had an undefeated 01 Bulldog team as well as a very strong tournament winning 99 Bulldog team. Bulldog organization must be abit mad. I no longer even see his name listed as a coach on their website.

No surprise. Too many egos.

Stay away from any team with LS. Last year in Boston good kids sat while his underage less skilled son played in key situations.

totally bs ls never coached in Boston

He was there last summer.

didnt coach loser

He was there. Know someone who went!

Many parents ticked off that his son got all the ice time after they spent all that money.

so he was there your claiming he benched players he didnt coach you are a loser your kid would have been benched

He benches kids in every tournament.

only yours

wa wa wa this is a BRICK THREAD not for houseleague whinning parents get off

Ok Donut Man.

With all the politics in the 99 age group what a joke. Each Coach has his own agenda and now we expect all these guys to meld into one and get along. Especially VP. You think he will settle for his kid playing less than 4 minute shifts

You are right about the PH coaches:
LH--VP
JH--Son
WC--Son
JW--MR nephew
VP--Son- Now JH there he will be pushed aside
LS--son

Wow no room for anyone else for ice time, the coaches have to look after their own.

What a mess, JH cut those kids from BD when he ran tryouts. What a cast.

So who is coaching BD now?

If LS is on team this is a joke. No way his little boy can play at that level. This is supposed to be the best of 99 representing Ontario. LS played his 2000 son over better 99 players in Philadelphia last year. Parents who spent all that money were fuming. Same thing will happen at the Brick. Beware!

That's right it was Philadelphia that LS coached and overplayed his 2000 son not Boston as was posted July 18. There were awards and he sat better players so his son could get more ice and try to win the award.

LS skated his kid for just about everyone in the ,99 loop trying get him onto a AAA 99 team. the kdi couldn't make it and is playing this fall in the NYHL. Now you're telling me he can play Brick '99.

That is a joke, and shows everything that is wrong with the Brick!

Give LS a break. He is there helping LH. His son won't be on the team. Give ZS credit he played very well against top 99's

Sorry LS but your little guy should not ever be on the ice in any 99 tournament. If he was a JM that would be different.

Agree 4:19. And the coaches jump ship after BD tryouts and join PH. This is a farce. Too many egos and agendas. Ask any parent who has ever played for LS in a spring tournament. Many good players sit whole periods.

really getting sick of all these power hungry immature selfish egomaniacs ruining things for all these kids. who lets guys like this time and time again get involved in coaching for the wrong reasons? shouldnt their kids have to make these teams on their own merits?

Happens every year. There will be lot's of spots available after parents pull out.

LL with the Bulldogs organization told us that JH and WC were coaching the Bulldogs brick team. So am I reding this right now that the coaches have switched to be with PH. Why?

4:37 Welcome to the world of minor hockey. Unfortunately, it's still who you know, not how good you are.

Is VP one of the coaches? Thought he was suspended next season?

Something fishy going on!

Was JH released from BD becuase he played politics and favourites with some kids? Looking for clarification please???

the answer is in the BD Brick 99 thread

it is abit long winded but accurate to say the least

already made the bulldog brick team. how hard is it to change to the ph brick team?

Apparently not too hard.

ya nice try! how low do you go? impersonating someone else! you probably dont even know everyone committed or involved! stir somewhere else, BD parents looking forward to next spring, to bad JH couldn't be involved.

Good riddens to JH.

wasnt JH the coach of the BD Gold team this year?

So JH cut VP's kid from BD and then JH joins PH and will be coaching with VP. This is nuts.

Guess VP's kid wasn't as good as JH's own kid.

Now that should be a good battle for ice time! Hope the unsuspecting parents have fun.

LH is coach he is running the team and deciding who is on the ice!

JH & WC left the Bulldogs because they were being "told" who they were going to take on their team. Donations from parents, as long as their kids involved.
Money talks!

JH and WC are also being forced to take players on PH, so I guess Pu$$y talks just as loud as money.

Only in your dreams. Meow

JH surprised TB let him go. He went to PH to make sure his kid got a spot and he could control his ice time cause any other coach would not have picked his child.

I think you meant TB shocked JH & WC left.

Is that why it was such a big secret, because I for one was wondering why no one had answers to what happened.

I was told that JH gave RL an ultimatum, JH or CM because he would have to let go kids better than CM and he would not do that. RL chose to move forward without JH and gave the team to DD instead. JH was shocked RL let him go. Heard that from a reliable source close to JH. Funny thing is he let kids go that were better than his own kid?????

Funnnnnnnnny???????????????????

Like it was said over and over, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Peoples judgement gets clouded when it comes to family. In this case its even happened to a professional coach. Great guy that has lots of pressure apparently from his wife. I guess were all human and how many of us wouldn't try to put our own kids first if given the chance. It might not be fair but thats reality.

Very well said, JH bought his way on the team for his kid by coaching the team, and fumbled up. Should of stayed with TB so he wouldn't have to face the kids he cut that went to PH and put his own kid under the microscope.

If im JH id stick to the pros and leave all this bs behind. Theres more crap to deal with in kids hockey than there is with grown men that play the game for a living.

Thats for sure, he just doesn't have much experience in minor hockey. Don't know why he is trying so hard to get his kid to the Brick, maybe it is his wife.

Hes trying real hard to get his kid in the Silverstick too. Heard that JH got the Rebels prequalified for the Silverstick. Marlies, VKings, Reps, Jr Canadians, Titans, etc have to compete for one remaining spot, but not the Rebels. Dont understand how Rebels could prequalify as best team, without having to compete.

maybe when they start losing in a big way to all those teams mentioned- the Silverstick people will yank the invite away as with the Brick team !!!

Not very fair to be able to use your power of profession to get ahead. Total crap that someone in an influencial hockey position uses that power only to advance his own child. Is he really doing his kid any good if the kid doesn't belong there? All that JH is doing is putting his kid under a microscope for all others to disect. You get there on merit and if your not good enough to get there that way then you shouldn't be there at all. Enjoy a long season of scrutiny if your kid isn't the superstar you think he is!!!!

All you *******s out there need to back off JH and his family, none of you have any clue. His kid is more than qualified to play in the brick. If any of you idiots look at the BDG games this year you would have seen one of the hardest working kids on the team that also put up a lot of points.

It done, **** happens, people sometimes make choices that they regret, that goes for both teams, there is no grand conspiracy theory.

All of you would put your child first, all of you!!!!!!!

Thanks MOM. Knew that you would put your 2 cents in eventually.

Nice response is that the best you could think of.

Not mom, but a friend who is tired of all this crap.

Give you a hint, I am a BD and have always been a BD, name and number and email is public knowledge, so drop me a line if you would like to discuss further.

relax folks. its a summer tourney in Edmonton. Nothing else. worry more about johnny's upcoming winter season...

Hokcey is nothing more than politics how else can ZS make the Brick Team.

Who is LS?

Whats this 1999 HDCO ALL ONTARIO team they are putting together for the Future World Junior Tournament in Stockholm next summer? Is Tony Tanti really coaching?

so

Got an idea. Let's just put together an all Ontario tournament for Coaches kids. That's pretty well what minor hockey is coming to.
