OK so what your saying is if one person does something stupid the whole team is labeled as stupid and don't forget Guelph guy got the same thing plus he got an instigator so technically the whole Guelph team should be labeled as dummies and goons who start fights my point exactly your not talking about that at all

I don't think any of these comments are really about one specific incident by one specific player. They are just general comments about the team.

Every team has their role players, whether it's a goal scorer, a checker or an enforcer. Brantford and Sarnia are the only teams that offer this. These teams can play any game you want, period. Guelph was clearly over matched in the playoffs, and much of the season or they wouldn't have finished 8th. Each organization is obligated to ice a successful team every season. However success means different things to different people. For some, winning is the only course of action and so year after year they use their available resources to do that. From what Brantford tells everyone they have considerable assets to offer players from a team bus, equipment, to ties with pro teams. That can be a powerful recruiting tool to players looking past junior. So far it hasn't led them to the promised land. Only winning the Suthie will prove that. Other teams view success by developing and promoting players to higher categories. They don't set out to just win but that becomes a by-product of their program. Brill takes this approach. He brings quality players and develops them over time and tweaks his line up along the way. So who's right and who's wrong. Well, the record's speak for themselves.

Exactly, it seems this has been a running theme all year long.
