Re: New Commissioner

I do call them minor for the following reasons. 1--Going to 2 Conferences has been talked about for years. 2--Craig has been basically been filling that role for months . Major Announcements would be, follow up on the projects the league announced earlier, 1--Go independent 2--Affiliate With BC Tier...

Re: New Commissioner

You stated that the League continues to make announcements in the re-shaping of the GOJHL. Two minor announcements have been made, Craig replaces Tim as commish (good choice) and the conferences are reduced too 2 from 3. Where are the announcements you say the league continues to make in the re-shap...

Re: New Commissioner

New Direction

Is there any news yet on which direction the GOJHL will be taking beginning with the 2024-2025 schedule.
There were different options thrown around in the late spring, are any of them being considered ?

The Round Robin

Listowel and St.Mary's game tonight, "WOW" I watched it on Flo, what a game.
Two great teams battle right down to the final buzzer.
Absolutely the best game I've seen this year.

Three real good teams battling for the finals, too bad only two will make it.

Michigan Goal

I believe the OHA referees are the only mislead, mismanaged group of officials that have ever called off a legitimate Michigan goal (lacrosse style wraparound).The rule states that the player must have the stick below shoulder level and below the crossbar when putting the puck in the net.

Re: Schedule

Come on RG, take off those rose coloured glasses, I find most of your post interesting but your view on Simmons is way off. He hasn't advanced the league, he's giving it away. He doesn't make decisions, his new side kick does it for him now.

Re: The Flood Gates are now wide open

Didn't there was 4 or 5 teams iinterested in moving.
I know of 2 teams that have expressed interest and are waiting to see if the OJ are planning to expand again.

Get rid of the GOJHL and the OHA. Let Junior Hockey be governed by the OHF and Hockey Canada.

First it was Leamington leaving for the OJ and now I just learned that Niagara Falls will also leave for the OJ beginning in Sept of this year. The owners approved the move because they were offered another franchise which they will sell for $400,000. They gave their footprint away 5 years ago and n...

Re: Brent Resigns (again)

The replacement would need a 75% in favour from owners. This would
eliminate Simmons. There's not a lot of owners that think he knows what
hes doing in his current role let alone let him become the commissioner

Re: Sutherland Cup

Caledonia would have been in the Round Robin if the GOJHL would have let
them use 17 twenty year olds again and 11 players from the OHL.

Yep, the Falcon sweep aside the SNORvairs 10 straight this year, not including

This series has turned out to be exactly what we thought it would be. The best
two teams in the Shoe battling it out for the Conference title.

Great goaltending, hard hitting, fast pace with a little taste of nasty

Expect Hamilton, St.Catharines, Caledonia and Fort Erie to move into the second round.
Best series to watch will be 4th place finishers FE and 5th place finishers Welland
