When will all the Rosters be posted?

Midland, Grmsby and Oshawa are already up. Brampton not yet

http://www.omha.net/flash.asp?page_id=227

Why the delay in the Brampton list and location? All the kids should have notified?

THere has been delays with the administrator of the Brampton camp.

Makes sense, Brampton is usually slow.

What kind of delays? This is just stupid, the rest of the camps have been posted since Tuesday.

Bit of a joke! 12 days and we can't figure out the details of the Brampton camp ?

patience grasshopper....

Put the wax on, took it off.. hurry the fk up with the details!

U17 Grimsby Camp

Here's some of the number of players from each SCTA team

16 Hamilton Jr. Bulldogs - the whole frickin team?
11 Niagara Falls Canucks - didn't know they had that many good players
13 St Catharines Falcons
9 Welland Tigers - No DiFruscia?

Must be a number of "fillers" to ice four teams

11 players from the Falls? Are they hosting the event?

you people have your hand in the sand or what? you think its possible to make 4 teams of star palyers let alone average ones?

...hand in the sand. So what's your point.

lol!

point is you are lost

I'm lost... or the guy with his hand in the sand?

both

^ sounds like another N54 hockey savant here.

keep amusing us with these attempts at making up for your manhood.

oh ya baby..o ya

What the ...?

hhhmmmm......perhaps the savant was quoting the wisdom of Confucius to us:

hand in sand,

not as much fun as

hand in crotch,

but safer than

fist in ass.

Bingo

oh crap, now I really am worried.......



anyhooo, back to the topic 'at hand':

OMHA UNDER 17 (carry on at your leisure)

OMHA U17 almost everyone on every team is going lol

not true lots off our team not going!

What is up with Brampton? This is getting ridiculous.

They took the $$$ but still no agenda. UNderstand that the other U17 places have websites setup with agenda's, etc.

Yeah, everything is done except the Brampton camp.

Brampton rosters not yet released as Grey Bruce needs to get more spots than the 13 they already have in Midland.

What's the hold up?

Just curious, how were the players informed about applying for U17? Was it team initiated or were each kid on their own in terms of completing the application and sending it in to the OMHA.

..Each on their own ..hopefully brought to their attention in time

Any team worth a roll of tape handled it foor their players. All others need not apply

I know of one team that did not

Grey Bruce 13 players?

Had I known this I would have applied for my own kid what a joke

What I'd like to know is where does all the money go?

4 camps x 60 players x 200 bucks = some serious cake.

Grey Bruce must get a kick back?

Yup, straight to the MM coach

brampton is still contacting alternates to fill the rosters. waiting for the backups to confirm

Brampton roster is up

What a joke these camps are. There are maybe 4 players on the Brampton rosters that have a chance to make the OMHA U17 team let alone make it to Thunder Bay for the final camp. A real cash crab and a waste of $200 for most of these kids.

the u17 team will consist of the top ohl draft picks plus a few others. thats it. save your time and money.

- we spend 200-300 on hockey sticks and 50 /hr for some small group lessons a few times a year , at least.
Its a reasonable price for what it offers and it is me as a parent that is picking up the tab with no expectations beyond the weekend.
Our choice, make your own

exactly.

Just because some are not going for whatever reason - not selected - money issues - forgot to apply. Whatever the reason. Why take out your frustration on others?

1 practice + 3 full games for $200 is not much at all - peanuts really. Also, hockey is expensive and it's a business. Either except this fact or move on.

If your complainging about a measly $200 then I really question your motives. As last poster said we routinley spend that much on 1 stick - ONE stick. And we all know how much we've spent the last year alone on composite sticks.

Maybe these boy are just excited to experience the camp...Maybe this boys have worked their butts off to achieve this ????? Maybe people shouldn't be so judgement and perhaps it's jealously ??????

some strange selections I guess they didn't get enough applications looks like they are still in need of a few players

yeah... I'm sure that's the only reason why .. yup

Brampton looks to be the filler for kids that could not make the cut for the other 3 camps

There will always be some fillers and will be obvious at the camp who they are.

Definite cash grab

"Brampton looks to be the filler for kids that could not make the cut for the other 3 camps"

Your kid obviously is not going or you would know that you have no choice which camp to attend as it's based on your home centre.

You really should stay off these boards

agreed and if you wanted your kid to go, you should have sent in your application, by the looks of it they needed some players.
As much as an experience it might have been my kid has no chance of making the U17 team plus with tryouts next week I'm hockeyed out and so will be my kid, he's looking forward to hanging up his skates for a few months.
Good luck to all the participants.

Aren't tryouts in the fall?

alot of tryouts this week coming up teams won't really be picked until they
find out where kids are going not a bad idea though to tryout now and not wait until the fall

My son made it to the Guelph camp. Had a good time and realized there was a lot of talent out there. Players from the Guelph camp who moved on were all 1st and 2nd rounders except for two or three players. Basically it's pre-picked so go in knowing that this will most likely be the case. Rob Kitamura prances around and talks to all the scouts and parents that he knows. U17 staff tell the kids at the start that they all have a shot to move on and there is no favortism etc.... One coach asked all his players in the dressing room what round did you get drafted in and to which team. The coaches set the tone from the start. Good luck to those who get there and make the most of it.

1:46
Assume this is last years U17?

Yup. But probably a carbon copy from year to year.

Kitamura has won 3 Golds and 1 Silver over the last 4 years. Maybe he knows what he is doing? You say he prances around, but he does win.

Your son wasn't good enough, get over it.

to the member of Club Rob. You totally missed the point. This is info for parents of kids who won't move on and might wonder why even if they had a great camp, which happens requently. Seems like you aren't over it but thanks for the know it all attitude.

Not to discredit his record but it's easy to pick a team after the draft. In fact, even I could do it...lol!

If it is so easy....whay happened to the U16?? Or with the program before he took over? it never has been this successful.

Also..Team Ontario and Kitamura have nothing to do with who gets out of these early camps...

Just saying...

April 10 10:31 pull your head from your ass and look at the Brampton Roster lots of filler goof.

Barrie AA and TNT-Midland
Oshawa-Lots of AA
Grimsby-CC,C and A

So, what the fuk are you Talking about the Brampton camp with such swagger?

so who makes it through at each camp? any predictions?

First kids to advance will be the players that were on Under 16 Team Ontario, no doubt some of them should not have been chosen yet they will be the first players to get the nod.

Not sure how many players will be selected in total, in regards to going to Thunder Bay in total, I presume in the neighbourhood of 30 in total from all leagues.

The Final camp is around 80 players.

I think 80 players would be too many, would it not be Hockey Canadas bill to get all these players to Thunder Bay and pick up expenses or is Mom and Dad still footing the bill

Projected move-ons from the Brampton camp

G SMith (Oak)
G DaSilva (Oak)
D Brown (Hal)
D Shiplo (Oak)
D Stangerlin (Hal)
D Burns (Oak)
D Anton (Bram)
D Abraham (Hal)
F Dickinson (Hal)
F Milne (Hal)
F Brown (Hal)
F Harris (Hal)
F Graham (Burl)
F Renouf (Bram)
F McGlynn (Oak)
F Harper (Burl)
F Burns (Oak)

1 G, 3 D and 5 F move on.

Would have thought Scott (Burl) and Kosack (Oak) would find a way on the list?

Didn't see the camp - was it a no hitter? If so, I could see both struggling with that concept.

Seventeen [17] players including two [2] goaltenders will be selected from each Regional Evaluation Camp to attend the OMHA Under 17 Final Camp in May at the University of Guelph.

2:30.
good analysis Halton dad.

wow 2:30 your good! maybe you should pass it on and send everyon else home. Better yet tell us the U17 team and save everyone the time and trouble!

McGlynn was not at the Brampton camp.

he was seen at McDonalds wolfing down three quarter pounders

It was a practice, a practice man...not the game.

Wait til scrimmage starts tomorrow. The poster with the list, you need help. It's the first day, these guys may know who to look at from what the scouts have told them but please...unless you're a scout(which you're not) you wouldn't be stupid enough to post on here...would you?

I think that list is just about bang on. Dont forget. This age group has been VERY heavly scouted and the players are very well known.

TO 10:42. The list above was made before any of the practices.

where's Perichak?

Who does he play for?

Enjoy the camp and experience boys.
Make sure to explain to your kids though that if you're not in the top 3 rounds of the OHL draft, you are not making the U17 team. If they were real honest about this, they would wait till after the draft to select players to the camp so that real scouts could do the upfront work for them.
Me thinks, the OMHA has found a good way to raise some coin.
I was reviewing some of the lists and I really don't believe they put a lot of effort into who was selected. Not all, but a few questionables. I know one kid from our team didn't see the ice in the 3rd period of any playoff games and one goalie who stunk out the joint.
My kid understands this and I hope he has fun there.

7:23, while it is reasonable to expect that the 22 players selected for this team to be among the top 60 players chosen in the draft, every year there's been a few players named to the team who were drafted beyond the 3rd round.

Perichak Oakville's best player surprised he didn't go

thanks dad.

Grimsby camp two major no shows - Welland forward and St.Kitts defenceman, heard in the stands that both looking at possible prep school route.

OHF not impressed with the U16 Squad Say it won't happen with U17 GTHL Stay Home give Ontario a chance to win

U17 GTHL isn't that much more impressive.

welland forward going to salisbury

Smart move...season starts at the end of October, play maybe 30 games. Great for development!

Yes so stupid, dad wants to get his son an education, at more than likely one hell of a price, how foolish can some parents be, should be ashamed, WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

which welland forward garlent or difruscia both were no shows this weekend

great move for kid and parent. congrats.

Very good choice for any player who can make this happen. Another choice is the USHL. Well financed teams, solid fan base and great facilities. Players are 16 to 21 years old. Run a schedule like the OHL; weekend games, 65 to 80 total. Many of the top US players take this route. You do not burn your NCAA card.

You can debate the quality of the development vs. the OHL all day long but I think the depends on where you end up in the OHL or the USHL. The USHL has fewer issues and only 16 team to manage. They set a very high standard for team finances, education and accountability for their players.

No situation is perfect but the USHL is a solid option for players to consider.

"Players are 16 to 21 years old."
- the league allows 15 year olds to play. Anthony DeAngelo was only 14 when he made his team.


"You can debate the quality of the development vs. the OHL all day long but I think the depends on where you end up in the OHL or the USHL."
- no doubt you can, however it's a moot point that this league is quite inferior to the CHL. simply compare the NHL draft numbers or look at the current NHL Central Scouting numbers.


"The USHL has fewer issues and only 16 team to manage. They set a very high standard for team finances, education and accountability for their players."
- bullshit. the bus travel in this league is brutal. and there are players in this league have been paid to play. others receive a very generous "gas allowance". it's typical NCAA eligibility rule hypocrissy.


"No situation is perfect but the USHL is a solid option for players to consider."
- what sales puffery and shameless promotion!

9:10 is such an angry guy. Chill out. The USHL is a good league that leaves the door open for OHL or NCAA. So the OHL has more guys in the NHL Great. The OHL is a very good league. As far as AD goes, thats the same as Ekblad getting his status in the OHL draft this year. Not common. The statement about 16 to 21 represented the majority. Next time I'll be specific so you don"t blow a casket. Yes, some additional travel in required with certain teams just like the OHL. SSM is not around the corner.

Now go take a valium.

the bus trips are all like trips to the Soo, some even farther.

where did Nick Ebert come from & how old was he? what about Adam Erne? what about Ian McCoshen? and yes DeAgelo was only 14 when he made the USHL! it's apparent you know very little about what you're talking about.

look who's being defensive and quite hostile. truth hurts doesn't it? and you can keep your medical advice to yourself as you'll need heavy sedation after this.

O.K. but does anyone know who actually will be moving on to the Guelph camp?

Phone calls went out last night.

The list posted by April 15 2011, 2:30 PM is way out of whack.

Congratulations and good luck to everyone but I dont see that list as better than Brampton's invites. Find out in a few weeks

The list above is bogus. Just wait for the real list.

The best D in Brampton was the Peterborough kid Perry, #6 white.

Someone loves Oakville, reality is the goalie and maybe 1 D move on.

perrys slow and those guys are confirmed already

OMG...the peterborough kid? I will not be mean but Dad dont post when it is so obvious he didnt belong on the same ice. If they want big and slow they go with the Brampton kid who scares everyone.

totally agree with that comment he shouldnt of been there...

12:50 your dreaming

Not the dad and either you don't know %&^# about hockey or weren't there.

Sounds like a bunch of Oakville dads at work (again).

who moved on from the grimsby camp?

The brampton kid (gold #6) mentioned is actually big and smart. Does he scare players yes but he's also skilled and plays a very smart game. He's listed at 6'1" 218 on the camp roster so yes 6'1" and 218 is going to be slower then 5'8" and 150.

I saw him at the camp and boy can he move and hit.

Yah, he's big and can hit, but it's pretty hard to play defence when your in the other teams end trying to score!

Not much hitting at the Brampton camp but wow, gold 6 - he was really throwing his weight around.

Heh Mom, enough already. He wasn't the only one throwing the body, and did it work for him, did he move on? No because he has to learn to play in both ends of the ice.

I'm not his mom or dad - why is it everytime someone posts on here it's automatically assumed its the parents ? That kid has been on the radar for sometime and how do you know he did not make it ? the results have not been posted.

Look how bitter you are. It's soooooo obvious.

bitter at what?

8:14/7:55 is just yanking your chain. it's the N54 "thanks dad" and "angry dad" jab game. just ignore it.

Goodluck to all moving on!!!

Why dont they have oshawa list posted

Still waiting to here about the bitter part?

Well what do you want to know. Did he move on, or are you bitter that he didn't? Knocking bodies isn't everything.

Play your position , Star... and all will be well!

Which players made the OMHA final camp May 6-8th?

Therees a reason they dont post it right away
