Guest wrote: ↑Wed Apr 23, 2025 6:44 pm A better question is that when a kid is cut from AA, what team is worth going to in A? Would any of these teams have spots still open for players dropping down?

If your kid was cut from a AA team, coaches know. If you think that your kid is going to get on a good AAA team, don’t kid yourself. Especially at the 2009 year and you still haven’t made a AAA team. Your kid will be the very last choice because he has no experience and is obliviously lacking in something.

I think the question was what A team has openings for AA cuts. No mention of AAA. Pick a team with openings and opportunities to possibly AP.

I know someone who was a AA cut and is now trying for any AAA team.

Will there be any AAA cuts at AA tryouts on Monday?

It so embarrassing when your kid get cut because it goes on his record with GTHL.

But now is when all the fun and games begin! Pre-tryout skates, tryouts, spring hockey. So what are people hearing for next year? Many changes happening? Any shift in the power rankings. Who's coming who's going who's loading up on talent who's rosters falling apart? What's the word going round?

I know my kid will be trying to get on the VP. Why would anyone want to leave the team?

Because coach is coach CRC U18AAA next season. That changes everything

Are you saying that VP will fall off because they are losing their coach?

"Why would anyone want to leave?" Better question is why stay? Entire top line is gone, plus kid who was drafted, plus another F. So 5 of their top 6 Fs are gone. That's prob 75% of their offence. 3 D are gone (including Top 2 D). Basically top half of team is gone. And word is remaining top F is trying to get on CRC.
Their replacements so far are avg AA players at best. No disrespect meant to the TR and DD guys joining, but a big drop from what they have. And their MVP, their coach, is gone.
MR, MB, VR, TE and potentially MNS likely will be better teams next yr.

Which tryout to go to?
Which teams still have spots available?

My kid goes to all of them so the coaches know he’s very eager and willing to make AAA. They probably know my son because he’s been trying out every year and never makes it. At least they still see he’s interested.
