I liked the coach and he has big plans but our son wants to stay where he is. The other reason was that he felt confident about having the best defenceman in the league and that next year after cleaning house will have the best defence altogether and by a lot. This is good for the team but might not be a great selling point to goalie parents.

They should be looking for 2 new goalies.

They made it through this year in the west, lost 2-1 today. They are a good team if they return most of their players.

I heard that they are turning over 40% of their skaters.

They are. Some were cut and others saw the writing on the wall. They will have a lot of turnover. Picking like somebody who knows no hockey - is this kid better than that kid not is this kid going to fit my team better.

MNS I understand is also making a few changes but not as many. Tho they have 3-4 kids of A caliber.

VP is very hush hush somebody open up please

Bold prediction: the top and bottom teams in regular season will be the same in the west.

If FT makes that many cuts they’re stupid. Their team is the only team in west who really played as a team. They didn’t have a stud to rely on. But from top to bottom figured out a way to win when it mattered.

AAA cuts are cuts for a reason. I love how you idiots think it’s a good thing to pick them up.

Parking space until they try to get back on another bottom team because daddy wants to tell his friends my son plays aaa. Oh and on top of that they’re nothing special have fun dummies

This is one of the dumbest things written here.

They played 2 guys x 25 minutes a game one of who is their stud and would pull 5 minute shifts. There is one mid D who also got some minutes, everybody else a passenger in coaches van.

The amount of stupid on this thread is off the charts

Take the bottom 1-2 kids from the top half of AA teams they got cut and went to the bottom AA teams to spend their parents $ another year

Then take the bottom coupla kids from juggernauts like the Jets and Terriers and Aeros, they are going to A

And they’re gonna be as irrelevant there as they were this year

Same song different title for the AAA cast offs

‘Oh but OURS are not coming from the worst team!’

Oh yeah? So the second or third worst then?

FT is going to be very strong and I don’t see how they’ll be below 5 GF on the season. That will definitely be a first place result.

The strongest team after the Christmas break when most of these decisions were made. AAA kids didn’t want to come down and play on dying teams.

Are the other 13 teams going to be playing with empty nets?
