DB not the biggest prob on OJG, only remaining coach with any hockey brains. FH and AC's ruined team that was already struggling. Enough on OJG, Birm and GI, time for a new ranking, 90+ comments too much.

Who are the teams matched up in the district finals? Anybody know, or care to put forth a prediction?

a 12 yr old does not make the calls i do so stay out of it if u do not have the facts

being offered the moon by many teams, that would be illegal according to MAHA/USA hockey since we are still in season....now that would really be ridiculous for a 9 year old!!!!
  hey 2000 Report Comment
gramps take it easy don't want you to get a heart attack on some silly little hockey forum i'm sure 12 is being offered the moon by many teams.
  Etc Report Comment
Think in Bham is just the coach and son, Going to Rink Rats?? Strong traning coach runs most of practices with a lot of emphasis on skating. If bulk of remainder stays they will still be a solid team. With OJG, the coach didn't leave on his own, think he was forced out by Asst coach, parents and OJG franchise owner. Asst coach was problems on other teams in the past. Head coach was intense but a good coach, team ultimately lost out most.
  2000GRANDPA Report Comment
HEY TMS YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FACTS RIGHTS WHO WOOD WANT TO GO TO NOVI GI # 12 DOES NOT SO GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR A
  Bham?,etc... Report Comment
Is the coach and his son the only ones leaving? I read the assistants taking over. Will new coaches be running practices? OJG: trying to understand head coach leaving. Why leave the team in mid season? if he can't control the arguing on the bench, then why coach the team in the first place. Be fair to the parents that signed up to play for you. Was it not reasonable to ask the assistant to step down from bench duty or even leave the team for the better of the team? The tryouts did not look that bad but would have hated to stay for something like this to happen. Hope OJG fixes problems come spring.
  mulligan Report Comment
Glad to see a runner up tournament it's good for GI and Motor City otherwise one of these teams would be eliminated Saturday.
  States Report Comment
How do you find out if the runner up is being held at the Summit in Lansing or Suburban?
  Lansing Report Comment
Is it the lansing Capitals that are in or the Capital pride who are a much better team then the capitals although still should not get a "free pass".
  Seriously Report Comment
Agree completely. Should not happen this far into tournament that a weak team gets a free pass. Take it to them and maybe this will be changed in the future.
  Seriously Report Comment
Just checked out Lansings record. They play in the Lidstrom division, only won a single game, and by my count were shut out 19 times this season. I don't want any moaning and complaining on the forum when you start seeing the 18 - 0 scores. This is the state tourney. All these teams should have been weeded out already, and goals for is probably in the tiebreaker scenario, so teams are not going to let off the gas, nor should they be expected to. I feel bad for those young men in advance.
  Oh No Report Comment
MCC getting the old wolves coach? Heard he's been pushed out at honeybaked.
  rubbish Report Comment
So Lansing with their 1 win is in, and Holland (ranked 24th here) is out cause Lansing holds a free pass, makes no sense what so ever. Can't wait to see TC and Lansing vs. the likes of Midland or Novi. Does anyone know the National or American divisional line-up, and how the round robin works?
  districts Report Comment
yes that is true. Its because of district 8 not sending
  Districts? Report Comment
Is it true that the second place team in the District can play in the runner up bracket and actually make it back into the State tourney if they can win the Runner Up bracket???
  TMZ Report Comment
There is a district runner up tourney for district number 2, 3, 4, and 5. District 7 only has one team ( T C ) at this level and district 8 is not sending a team. I have no idea which district will play each other. Rules for states is that no district can send more the 2 teams from the same district. So with Lansing being the host team and GR winning Districts and both bring from district 6 all other team in district 6 will not be able to play in the runner up tourney.
  Districs Report Comment
Any one know if there is a second place tourney for districs?
  RinkRat Report Comment
No body pays for a team or a franchise. A, AA & AAA teams have a franchise holders who are reponsible for all elements of the team (Players, Coaches, Managers, Parents, Etc.). I guess you can look at them like the GM of each team.
  pays Report Comment
for the belle tire name up front so they can be AAA
  Hey BT Report Comment
Can you explain a little further on what is a franchise holder?
  12GIMom Report Comment
See ya on GI next year
  this man Report Comment
and all involved should never be allowed to coach hockey or any youth sport EVER AGAIN. I am not surprised about the conduct of the belle tire coach, but am saddened that more grown men (and women from what I hear) chose to participate in something so disgraceful and horrifying to the children and families on their teams.
  B T Report Comment
coach for mini-mite also has the franchise holder for BTS what a disgrace to youth hockey,my guess is nothing will be done about this matter because not enough qualified coaches or asst. around.

That post deserves the opposite of a Darwin. The best of the year. I love the part about the PK new jerseys and the Bham "gonna practice all year". Bravo
  New Kid Report Comment
Isn't MCC also getting the new coach's son who is supposed to be 5"6" and a great two-way player. I heard he dominated the Atom AAA and Reebok can't make a junior stick that can support the torque he delivers on his wrist shot. Supposed to be quite something.....like his father.
  Go Bucks Report Comment
CBJ #1 in preseason in LCAHL? That sounds a little optimistic, but it would be music to my ears.
  Herbie Report Comment
Sounds like MCC is getting the reincarnated Herb Brooks!
  oh Report Comment
from what i hear about mcc, they are getting a new head coach. i guess he has some playing exp, div 1 college, Can jr A, AAA, then coaching at div 1college, AAA and still is coaching. by what my friend said, he is a fantanstic person too.
  Chuckle Report Comment
Very few posts actually make me laugh out loud!!! That "TMZ" post is very funny!!!
  TMZ Report Comment
OK here is what they are saying at TMZ.........Belle tire South is getting a new coaching staff which means they will clean house and many players will be done. Word is that most of those players are running to GI. Also word is that #12 from GI is now going to go to play for Novi you know the saying " if you cant beat them then join them ) or just look up Hossa. Also no smoke in Novi as said on here " the association post for aps for ALL COACHING POSITIONS" but yet the web site posted for only 99, 00, and 01's. HMMMMMM maybe there is smoke. As for B-ham next year they are just going to practice all year......NO GAMES and up north in Midland they are going to be the first team to play ALL ROAD GAMES. LC also told PK to get a new color for jerseys and game socks. Livonia, MC, Macomb and SCS just dont have what it takes so nexts year Yzerman will be GI, Mid, Toledo, Novi and PK. As you may all know TMZ is always right on the money.
  UM Fan Report Comment
Now Midland....does that mean Columbus will be pre-season # 1.. I can't take it....
  PK Lover Report Comment
Yeah right and Granholm just committed state funds for a bullet train between Midland and Bham.
  Gut Check Report Comment
I heard a bunch of the Midland kids including one of their goalies are going to play for Birmingham. They must have struck a deal at International SS.
  UM Fan Report Comment
From what I am reading is MC done, Bham lost head coach, GI star player going to AAA. Novi where there is smoke there is fire.... If this means those Ohio teams will start to take charge in LC.... I can't take it... go blue
  PJ Report Comment
I knew it. We were missing some Yzermin division team smack talk. Now my day is complete.
  Hey GMAB Report Comment
You just won the Darwin award for the dumbest comment on this blog. "The other coaches need help, when we played them the just stood there, while taking a beating". What did you expect them to do lace up their skates and jump on the ice. You must be suffering from severe depression knowing that your beloved #12's Grandpa just inked a deal with a AAA team for next season.
  PK fan Report Comment
You can tell GMAB is a GI parent by his writing. I would say it is about 4th grade level at best.
  get the facts Report Comment
right before you post gross ille dad, head coach movin up to pee wee a not stayin in squirts, I doubt half the kids will follow. Worry about your own team full of super stars!??
  squirt observer Report Comment
I certainly don't want to get in a war of words on a youth hockey website. However, I disagree with your assessment of the situation. The Bham team has a multitude of very talented players. In addition, the coaching staff has been together for more than 5 years. There is a lot of stability there. The family's want to remain on the Bham team and the coach who is stepping away is encouraging them to do so. That franchise will continue to get better!!!
  GMAB Report Comment
Squirt observer, that team is nothing without the coach's kid. The kid scores majority of the goals for that team. The other coaches need help, when we played them the just stood there, while taking a beating. What makes you think they will keep all the kids, you are not that aware of what has happen in the past with other teams are you? Once the head coach goes, usually does his allegiants for him goes, or goes with him. That team I bet will be with ½ the kids next fall, while the other ½ look for teams. Wake up! It over and it will be a rebuilding year. I bet they will be second from last in the Yzerman next year.
  Novi Report Comment
Let me put an end to the rumors so I can get some work done today. My phone is blowing up. Unless someone knows something that I do not, the rumors of the Novi 00 coaching staff leaving Novi has NO merit. There are posts on Mlive that the association placed at all age groups that was poorly worded. The association rules require that they post memos for when they are excepting applications for ALL coaching positions each year. The only coach that is formally leaving to my knowledge is the 99 coach which is public knowledge and we wish him much success.
  squirt observer Report Comment
I can't speak for the other teams, but the Bham team is staying intact. The two asst coaches are taking over. Almost every player is returning.
  hot stove league Report Comment
Wow !!! b.ham coach leaving,Motor City coach is leaving also taking over the 01 compuware AAA.Hmmmm wonder who will stay and who move on.
  news news Report Comment
wipe that brown stuff off your nose........
  PARENTS! Report Comment
Don't be the reason your kid doesn't make a travel team. The first question a parent should ask a coach is "What does my child need to do to get more ice time in the bigger games?" A good coach will give the skills and drill needed to improve. Hands and shooting come at home in the earlier years. Working hard off the ice. Work ethic needs to be installed at a younger age. It only gets harder as the years go on. Just my opinion.
  NEW NEWS Report Comment
THE HOT NEWS: BIRMINGHAM'S COACH IS MOVING ON, VERY GOOD COACH. NOVI NOW BIRMINGHAM WHATS GOING ON? I GUESS IF KIDS CAN MOVE FROM TEAM TO TEAM COACH'S ARE GOING TO DO THE SAME. CONGRATES TO THE BIRM COACH ON WINNING SILVER STICKS USA AND COMING IN WE HERE 2ND OVER ALL. GREAT JOB AND GOOD LUCK, JUST LET US KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING SO THAT KIDS CAN TRY OUT?

What happen to Novi's coach? Why did they let him go? He is a very good coach. Does anyone know?
  Inside Report Comment
Rattlers got a kid that we know of from Macomb. The Rattlers could be a hot and cold team. They did win the division last year and had a good team. But they lost kids do towhat else coaching. I hope that they can get it back together in the coming years.
  ROCH RATTLERS Report Comment
I heard the Rattlers pickup some new players before Jan 1. Who and where did the players come from? It seems to me they have really been playing a lot better since :) NICE JOB!!!
  What is Worse Report Comment
being arrogant enough to put up a posting making fun of Lidstrom teams like "Lidstrom Smack" below or choosing to put your kid on the Y team like "What is better" so you can post cool Y smack talk on this site?
  hockeyguy Report Comment
YES THEY DO...this is the third year most of the players have been playing travel. Assuming nothing, will there be a third travel team in the near future? These topics are fun to write about and read about. Brings out some real passion in folks. I appreciate that. I dont like hearing about kids getting shorted for sure but hockey can serve everyone of these boys, no matter what their skill level is or how much ice they see, very well if they have parents that can help guide them through these waters. On most teams, this game is a microcosm of real life. Talent, skill, hard work, maximun effort, production all get rewarded in various ways. Sometimes they dont. Its not fair but its a reality. A parent that knows and understands how and when to apply the right parental guidance in each situation will find they will have a kid that enjoys the game more and in the end will have gotten a lot more from the game than just wins and losses.
  W/e Report Comment
Make no mistake about it. If your kid is not ready for Travel hockey, keep him in House. Parents are the main culprit here. Stop the madness. Any Coach who takes Hockey players just to fill the roster are just as guilty. Scout your talent better and the short bench will resolve. When a Parent watches his/her Hockey player miss ice time its humiliating. I believe its the number one reason for the drama. Build their confidence and the team will benefit
  bible thumping Report Comment
Lets just get rid of all the divisions and let them all play whom ever they want ......
  achievement Report Comment
One of my kids earned an athletic scholarship to a major D1 program in another sport. Guess what? No one ever asked if the kid who or lost at age 9. When coaches scouted and viewed the video they were focused on current skill level and most recent competitions, and signs of potential for more. No one cared how my kid had done ever two or three years before, much less 8 or 9. Most 9-10 age group champions aren't even competing in their sports any more by age 15. Its all about building for the future.
  oh Report Comment
i definitely concur. Sounds like a parent trying to live through their child. This game is for the kids to enjoy themselves, not the parents to get accolades from the kids. Remember, they will only be this age once, but will remember it their whole lives.
  VeryTrue Report Comment
Very true, Door Knobs and Icepatch. This is about kids having fun, falling in love with the sport, and developing the foundation of skills, mental approach, and desire that will help them achieve their potential in the sport, whatever that potential may be. Any adult who finds that having his 9-10 year olds' team win is more important than those goals because he or she gets some sense of self-worth out of it is a pretty pathetic human being.
  Door Knobs Report Comment
WTF Your all a bunch of Door Knobs how about roll your lines and alternate the lines that way they all feel like they as important as each other and develope the kids
  icepatch Report Comment
Here is a novel approach. Instead of 1st line, 2nd line, 3rd line perhaps changing kids up so they can play with everyone on the team. Develop them? Just a thought. Some are more aggressive, some are better position players and some are better passers. Sitting kids in Yzerman--great lesson coaches--you should resign now. You actually sit 9 and 10 year olds to win a "playoff" game. Way to go. I think they made a really bad movie about you years ago--remember the Mighty Ducks (the first one). Hey you won. Rush home and wait by the phone. That NCAA or AHL job is right around the corner...Howe parent posting.
  wow Report Comment
i would say that playing on a first line in howe is better than a third line in yzerman. What fun does the kid have sitting on the bench during crunch time and big games. I doubt he is ennjoying it. Ive seen it with some kids on the yzerman teams. crying after the game cause, sure the team won, but the child played limited time. welll, i for one would take my child to where he is enjoying the game, not just on the team to say he plays on that team. just my 2 cents
  YES THE DO- Report Comment
The 2 travel teams my kid has played on have had 3 lines
  OJG Benched Report Comment
I understand the problem stemmed from issues between 2 coaches and constant arguing on the bench and in front of the kids. Also heard the ASSt has had problems in the past with other teams. Volunteer positions are so awesome!!
  hockeyguy Report Comment
come on...travel teams dont have 1st, 2nd and 3rd lines...
  What is better Report Comment
Playing on the third line of a Y team or playing on the first line of a Howe team with only two lines?

Want to here more on the OJG coaching change did he leave on his own was he aked to leave let us know were just dying to find out.
  Lidstrom Smack Report Comment
Now that would be funny to read! Some chest thumping followed by "My Lidstrom team is better than yours, nah nah nah nah nah" Speaking of, where did Rebels fan go?
  Never enough... Report Comment
...trash talking on this site. What fun would this be if the only comments were "nice game, you have a well coached team, your kids tried hard, blah, blah". It's like NASCAR, everyone goes to see the crashes.
  Points? Report Comment
Are you kidding me? We have been reading trash talk amongst the Yzerman teams this entire yr.

Too much respect among the Yzerman teams to trash talk a lot. As soon as you do, you better be ready to eat your words.

yeah, me too, cause the one thing that has been missing from the rankings is a little trash talking amongst the Yzzerman teams.
