To The Generals. Yes, you had a tough year but the vast majority want to see you (NAHL) and the NCDC both to succeed. Why shouldn't we? The more of the better Jr leagues in New England, will only makes the hockey better for all. Best of Luck.

That other guy is just a hater!

This same magazine just came up with another ranking with USPHL rates higher than EHL. Note: Both ranked much higher than CCHL

If you can wanna water down Tier ii its a great idea.

Funny, I recall your criticizing a post within the last week for poor grammar. Pot, meet Kettle.

Typo. Great rebuttal.

So was his. Yet, you called him out for it anyway.

Fraud.

Tough year. Haha. They were outscores by 180 goals. Their tenders saw more rubber than a Las Vegas hooker.

Although I am one of the guy's who is all over NCDC Sux guy, I gotta agree with the goalie sentiment. I found it striking that the Generals guy mentions, " Good tenders this year". Really, you can make a fair assessment of last years goalies based off of what they had in front of them? I am sure your goalie from last years draft went elsewhere because he realized it was a no win proposition for him

He wasn't referring to goaltenders. Google "Junior Hockey Tender" for a better explanation than you'll get here.

You are absolutely correct. My bad! Yes, I do know what a tender in Jr hockey means but I absolutely had a brain fart on that one!

Either/or in the case of the NE Generals. I would love to see the shots on goal stats. I am shocked more goalies didn't quit mid-game. I did actually pay to see a game. It was honestly laughable. I felt so bad for both teams.

NCDC fee is $400. Don't let facts get in the way of a good argument though. The Northeast Division NAHL teams draw about 300 fans a game also. Only 10 times less than you quoted.

Did I specify Northeast teams? Wow, $400. Thanks for your insight.

No but you did say $2000 and implied that 3000 people go to every NAHL game. Pretty sad you are actually rooting for a local hockey league to fail simply because your kid plays like 2000 miles away and you don't want that hockey "watered down". As hockey an alleged hockey guy, why would you want that? So you can pound your chest and say your kid is a Jackalope or something that 95% of people don't have a clue what that even means? Sad.

That's 1300 a game. Not the 3000 you claim. Fuzzy math.

Well my sons team draws 3000 a game. How many you think NCDC will draw? Hahaha

You've already acknowledged that you judge a Junior program by wins and losses. That it's important what other teams think. Now you're claiming that a team that draws more fans - mostly a factor of how backwater a town it is they are located in - is an attribute of a successful team.

You clearly don't know jack about hockey. Because if your kid is playing NAHL for a second straight year, it means he has maxed out. He did't develop, probably because he wasn't good enough to get significant minutes. He's entering his third year of living away from home, and has really very little to show for it. You're probably hoping for that slim chance to be a 20 year old rookie in the USHL. Which rarely happens, and even more rarely ever leads to anything after that.

You're clearly very proud of your 4th line duster, with 3,000 people reading the back of his sweater.

Please change your screen name to Shallow Hal.

So he plays for Corpus Christi as they are the only team in the league that cracked 3000 fans a game. There wasn't a local kid on their roster last year at all. So you are once again full of you know what. I could care less how many people watch my kid play. Doesn't matter to me at all. I only care about him developing by getting quality minutes playing good hockey which he will get this year. I don't need to pound my chest letting everyone know he made the NAHL and has 3000 people watch him every game. You actually think it's great hockey simply because 3000 people a night in Texas have nothing else to do?

Not CC. His team averages 2500 or so but can hold 3000 and do quite often. Are you saying that the NAHL isn't as high quality as the USPHL or NCDC or whatever they are calling it?

Never said that. It's just not what YOU think it is. And yes, I have seen the hockey. The level of skating is poor and I wouldn't say its a high quality skill level either. Saw about a dozen games when figuring out where to have my kid play for this year and decided it just wasn't worth it, and were advised by about 15 people to stay away. That's a fact. Unlike the garbage you are spreading with the "my kid plays in it so it's awesome and they get a lot of fans"

There are 5 teams in league averaging over 2000 fans a game. Not one of them has a local kid on their roster. So yeah, you are just making all of this stuff up to pound your chest. Good luck to your kid. He's gonna need it.

Dude 3000 people went to see the New Hampshire High School hockey championships last year. Does that make it good hockey?

They were the best high school players in NH. NAHL are some of the best Junior players in the US. Thats why noone will go see the NCDC games or Championship. Is simply Sux.

And that's based on all ZERO of the games that have been played so far correct?

Same league and same coaches as USPHL Premier. They changed the cost and name. Might have gotten worse by absorbing some EHL teams.

Yet the heading of this thread is EHL is better than NCDC. OK buddy

Look at some of the teams they absorbed? You truly think this is Tier ii hockey??

Header was sarcasm genius. EHL knows their role. Doesn't try to be something its not.

No it wasn't. EHL was ranked higher than USPHL in TJHN. Not that they were down on the USPHL, they said extremely positive things about every level of the league, and also said it's going to get stronger with tyhe EHL teams moving over, not weaker.

But, just keep making **** up to justify your bitterness.

The most recent article dates 8/2/17 lists the top 20 Jr leagues. NCDC is 6, Ehl 7, CCHL 12th. Why are you all so bitter? Let's just wait and see

His kid doesn't play there so it must suck

It has sucked and will continue to suck.
