Near the bottom, but is this team made up of lots of new faces or did they keep a majority from last year?

Many teams near the bottom seem to change coaches every couple of years. Coach been there awhile?
Kids have fun?
If not for the coaching is the organization(fees, schedules, etc)OK?

This team has alot of new faces. 3or4 AAA players at best 3or4 AA players the rest should be playing single "a" or house league. Coach has a great heart and loves to teach the game but sees talent no one else sees.

Is the team big? I thought he was trying to go that route.

In my mind the ultimate litmus test for any coach is their history...do players stay with him? Good coaches are so hard to find these days, notwithstanding the obvious players that move up to the Marlies of the world, you should always look at the coaches history focusing in on watching practices, bench management in games, and ultimately how many kids a year are turned over......then make up your mind.

No the team isn't big as I saw them play last week.The 1 tall kid can't stand up and doesn't like to pass the other one skates pretty fast but has no clue how to play hockey. With out the puck very lazy.

You guys must be a good team because you have 3 clarington players.

Is one of goalies tall as well? Did one goalie come from Clarington?

One goalie came from AA Toronto Icedogs, not sure of other.

Why do loser clarington parents keep bringing up the three kids that left. The parents never talk about the toro team or why they left. just because your record is as bad as ours just have fun because the kids that left are having lots of fun with there new teammates.

How has the Ice Dogs goalie adjusted to life in AA? Not always an easy transition from AA to AAA.

Well, he's seeing lots of rubber...

thats a good thing....sort of!!

and how much is alot of rubber? 25-30 shots? More? Less?

yes we looked like shit again losing to the majors

Don't be so hard on yourself titans sucked last year and will keep on sucking until you can get a coach that can pull in some talented kids. Why do you think 10 or 11 kids left from last year. YA your right its because of the coach. You should drop down to single A you might compete there. Just a thought.

goaltending .... ouch!!!!!

needs some work does it?

Where did they get this years kids from...mostly AA I presume?

Clarington AAA!

Clarington AAA!

Who is the coach of this team???

Go to a game, stand in the farthest corner from the rink, open your ears and listen....you will find out very quickly! Bring ear plugs though, as by the mid point of the first period you'll go bananas....

Could they be mid pack with a different coach?

they could be mid pack with no coach

True enough, at least they wouldn't be looking over their shoulder to figure out if the coach wanted them to shoot, pass or skate...

If the coach of any team has to give out instructions to shoot, pass or skate during a game,he is not doing his job during practice.

Bingo!

This coach is the loudest coach I have ever heard but I think he genuinely cares about these kids and they seem to respond to him.
Perhaps less skilled then most teams they always put out a good effort.
coach really is LOUD

there are alot of loud coaches out there. But is it loud to be heard or loud to stress his point?

They couldn't be a mid team as most of the kids don't no how to skate or pass the puck. Coaches kid needs to pick a new career or drop down to a level he can play at. were is #81 haven't seen that kid for a few games did he get a hit from behind

...will not finish at the very bottom.

Nevers fails

The Titans org is the shit bucket of the GTHL
They attract SHIT players(kids) and shit parents and shit coaches.
ie BH, HH, and the current coach of this team.

T for shit.

is your kid one of them?
Since you know so much shit

1:55pm ....but please tell us how you really feel!!

Ah

T for Shit

...such a shame as they had some history behind them and now until the coach goes they will not attract any good talent - unless they have a very thick skin. Being where they are in the standings they could probably attract some decent kids from AA and maybe one or two from other AAA teams that would give them some hope to finish higher in the standings.

It's not sad, it is pathetic.....good orgs have smart people running them who have a pulse on the age group, and the credentials of the coach. Given this coach has not been replaced, it is on the org, and looks good on them.....well done TT management!

And the beat goes on

Money comes, comes, comes.

You people in the shit Titans pay it.

It will cost you $5K plus to play for this clown and then another $5k to fork out to the shrink who will work with your child the year he leaves. But he gets to play AAA!

T for Shit

T for Titans

M for money.

Titans will finish last and coach will be replaced or the team will be looking to replace another 11 kids why because the parents and kids wont put up with the crap that is happening with the team

As parents when you watch your kids play good teams can't you see that your kids are not AAA players and all you are doing is hurting them by not letting them play at a level they would enjoy playing at. Try sitting down with them tell them you won't get mad and ask if they would rather play at there level rather than them living your dream of playing at an elite level.
JUST A THOUGHT!

Well said

Does Uncle Fester still coach this team ?

The coach is a good guy and has alot of passion for the game its not his fault he had to pick the team from o very limited talent pool

lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol, lol

hey we no your talking J S SHUT THE FUCK UP.GOOF

T for Titans

T for shit.

Hey J.S your kid got cut from M.M go figure it is what it is hey keep talking

T for shit.

Joke. who take money from people to play in the Titans and dont pay back.
Your fucking coach.

T for shit.

Don't worry JP we still love you warts and all.
Don't worry about what other people say about you.
You can start all over again next year like always.
Look on the bright side, you are meeting alot of interesting people.
Think of coaching like going back to high school.
All the contacts you are making.
The life skills and so on.

What are the chances of the titans making the playoffs and the coach lasting all year

NONE

...slim and for sure!

Mario don't like it when you post. u must stop

The last 2 titan games were embarrassing they have no talent and no heart

Holy fuck, here we go again.

People get off this ORG.

It sucks

FUCK

true,let's talk about the real stories.

Jim, Its time to make right.
Lets talk money.

Why would two Clarington boys pay all that money to drive to Toronto and play for the Titans? Good news is you only have to do it this year and next year and then your free......LMFAO

Hey Jim, not sure if you've heard this before but you suck.

Jim is doing as good as any coach would be able to do with the talent he has. He is not God and trying to coach single A players to become AAA players ain't an easy task. Hes tried to convert his own kid into a AAA player without any success for a few years.As long as single A parents are willing to spend the big dollars to try and get there kids to play at this level there will always be a triple a coach there to take there money.

Fine, but in the last 3 years he has driven away lots of AAA kids based on his antics. Sprinkled throughout the league on all the teams are very good players who could have formed a strong team for this org, except they placed their loyalty in the wrong person.

Understand the entire picture before you make excuses.

I have looked at the entire picture and I agree with you. JP has made some kids into talented players and have moved on to better teams because of antics. Maybe the organization should look at him as a development trainer rather than a head coach then maybe this age group for the titans organization may get back on track with the right guy behind the bench.

Ask yourself why these kids left the organization though.....to me, that is one of the key things the org shoudl be reviewing each year they decide on next year's coaches....know this, good players as a rule do NOT leave good coaches and good orgs, and certainly not in the numbers that has been witnessed under this guy. Nuff said!

I do agree with you that each coach should be reviewed each year not only on the titans but all GTHL teams. These coaches get paid alot of money and some coaches do deserve the money they get for there time and coaching knowledge of the game. Alot of kids from the GTHL go to the JR level because of good coaches and good systems but at the same time the kids have to want it to. You can't teach heart but coaches can teach the skill they need to move to the next level, again it comes down to the kids wanting to be taught and the right coach to get the skills out of the kids. We all know that every kid will not make the next level but as a parent its nice to know that the money we spend on them learning the game didn't go to waste

Coach will be there until no one shows up at tryouts...and there will always be kids at their tryouts.

Only the single A kids will show up next year so there parents can say there kid plays AAA.

Maybe if JP got a job then he would not have to depend on the money man every year.

Hes took my money and did not refund it.
