Not true. If they want your kid you will know it now.

I’m losing my mind here. My kid lives and breathes hockey, tries out for every AAA team, gets nothing. Ignored, lied to, ghosted. Why is the GTHL doing this to him? And don’t tell me it’s because he’s not good, he’s the best damn AA player out there. What’s really going on?

Maybe it you? Teams don’t take on parents that are losers.

Who’s all trying out for aaa teams all summer? I feel like they are stringing us along by telling us to keep coming back to try out. Anyone else experiencing this?

2009 kids, listen up!


I know you’re watching McDavid in the playoffs thinking “yeah, that’s gonna be me.”

Let me hit you with a wake up call your parents won’t…
You better stay in school.
You better hit the books.
You are not making the show, you’re making the Tuesday night beer league.

Bro, you peaked at peewee, let it go.

I’m happy to say I got a spot on TT. I’ve tried out for AAA for 4 years now and almost was going to give up but this was my year. I’m officially a AAA player and will be wearing all the gear as soon as I can. I’m probably going to sleep in my team jacket. My dad and mom are also ordering a jacket. This is my dream come true. Thank you Allah!

Listen, brown boy…you think you’re going to take a spot away from my kid in aaa! Not going to happen! Coaches and players will take one whiff of you and your equipment and kick you off the team. My kid deserves to play aaa, he’s tall, built, high energy, hockey is his life, he doesn’t even do schoolwork, it’s 100% hockey. Do you have that commitment? Didn’t think so!
