Junior Ontario Hockey

Not sure who the "twins" are but why leave a problem to manifest! Why wait for the trade deadline? If it is personal, then move them if they do not contribute to the team. Again, why wait for the deadline?

Video replay wouldn't be impossible. I am not sure if they would overturn a game result the day after even if they were able to review and see it was kicked in. All they really have to do is institute a minimum level of video coverage that is acceptable. The quality I've seen out of some teams (SD,...

If Buffalo wanted to fold, there wouldn't be anything the OHA could do about it as they are sanctioned through USA Hockey. The most the OHA could, and probably would do, would be to thwart any future attempts by the Regals to get back in.

Say what you want about the owner and dumb trades but the bottom line is this...they are winning!

GOJHLFAN....great to hear you support your team, and even more importantly, this league, at away games! This league has tons of support! The type of support that makes other leagues envious! That is something the league needs to ensure continues and I would take it a step further and start recognizi...

Now it is up to the coaching staff to get the boys motivated and put this drubbing behind them. Whether or not it is 10, 14 or 20-0, it is one game out of 50 or so. The real issue would be if you were consistently getting your behinds handed to you! I am sure they will bounce back...and I will bet t...

I agree with you. I have not seen what he "has" against the OHA but you should always want to play in the sandbox...even if you are looking at other alternatives. Coming right out and saying you wanted no part of the OHA, was a colossal mistake. He should have understood the governance in ...

You are the second person to say that..LOL

I just think it is an interesting situation. Not sure the OHA has been down a road quite like this one before.

The city of Cambridge has suggested the following: “Any interested groups or potential partners interested in bringing a team to Cambridge must first submit applications through the OHA to ensure appropriate eligibility and sanctioning under the association’s requirements. Correct me if I am wrong b...

The biggest thing is you need to know who you are stepping into the ring with. I am not sure if JM had a thorough understanding of the politics of hockey in this province. Wanting to, and going public with getting out of the OHA was his first major mistake. Approaching, and going public, with his at...

Looks like with the change of colours and style, they have changed their name to....

Corvarls

This is exactly the same situation that arose in the OJHL and made it the laughing stock of Tier 2 in this country! Daddy owners who purchase teams in order for their son to have a spot in the near future! If I am correct, I think he has a Minor Bantam goalie son who plays "A" level hockey...

And that is the beauty of this. This league was recognized, I might add, as a better development league than the OJHL in a recent survey. I do not usually put too much stock in ratings/rankings etc but this speaks volumes to where this league is, and the potential for where it could be! And all this...

I agree...there are many more important things to be concerned about!

Hockeydad..I agree with you for the most part. This league, from an operations standpoint, is not where it should be! Credibility is not a given. It is something that needs to be earned. Ranking ahead of the OJHL as a development league tells me that this league, disregarding the semantics, is at a ...

Though I do not put much stock into rankings this does say one thing...that this league is being recognized by people in the industry/game. And let's not forget, this was achieved as a "B" league!!! It's all semantics people. This league has so much potential. It just takes a little effort...

Coach..agree..but it wasn't so long ago that Midget hockey was being decimated by the number of 16 year-olds playing at the junior level. Midget Hockey and the Air Canada Cup was where it was at! I guess there are several ways to get around it. Say, limiting the number of true AAA centres and possib...

Well, then I guess it is time to get down to the business of making decisions the right way!

I would, unfortunately have to say that it is a no-go. Considering they have lost all players from last year and have cancelled their spring camp, icing a team that may be on the levels of the Regals should not be accepted and would do a disservice to this franchise. I would take the year off, if gr...

Undertaker...don't get me started on that. I could write a book on everything this league should be doing!! Throw the A vs B aside for now. The teams need to figure out who is in or out! I know there are a core group who want nothing but the A. But that ain't happening so the decisions need to be ma...

Would still need OHA rubber stamp approval but it would be interesting to see how it plays out.

I agree with you that there "may" not be Junior "A" west of Milton but it is hardly due to a lack of talent. That is the politically correct way of handling it. First things first Undertaker.....dismantle the hierarchy of the GOJHL and get rid of the OHA appointed Convenors. No n...

I am not..as you are now aware. Could this all have been avoided...absolutely! But these are two groups (JM and the OHA) who are not willing to back down. The last thing HC wants, is anything going the judicial route. At that point, every single, minute facet of your operation is open to investigati...

Well I guess it remains to be seen what will happen this year come trade deadline time. I am guessing an AC with NHL experience AND a ring....could fetch some solid coin!! hehe

At the end of the day, anything of this nature needs to go through the membership! It is ridiculous in this day and age that this continues to happen! Only in Canada!! I see that the OHA, OHF and HC have their members throwing out the "non-sanctioned" participation sanctions for those play...

Geeez....put some money into it and design something for cripes sakes!! Guess they would have had to dip into the baseball team budget for that to happen!

I have heard through unnamed sources that the OHA is looking to handpick new owners. Regardless, I think the obvious needs to be accepted that both Thorold and Cambridge will be inactive for the coming season. Anything other than that I consider a half-assed attempt by the OHA to yet again assert th...

There comes a point in time where membership needs to stand up and be counted!! Now the OHA wants more money?? What do they possibly provide that would necessitate an increase in fees?? And whilst we are at it....with full face shields coming in, as mandated by the OHA, I would certainly expect a re...

Only reason they were asked to leave was because they are, I assume, no longer a member in good standing! As for the control of the OHA, it is high time that the membership stands up for what is right and challenge the OHA's Stalinesque style of leadership. Quite frankly....other then the OJHL, what...

At the end of the day...a lot of money for absolutely nothing!
