This thread is about 2007s and at the 2007 birth year all of the NE talent with the exception of small few is in the FED. Not speaking about other birth years as this is not what the thread is about.
There are a handful of players on BA and maybe 1-2 other kids on a few E9 rosters that, at this point in their development, could crack the roster of a top 6 team in the FED.
Fact.

All of the NE talent? Listen, these kids just started tying their shoes, and can't even tie their own skates. You will see in a year or two kids come out of the woodwork and little Johnny gets past by. It's really tough to label a kid as Elite at 6. The are one of two things, the biggest kid or the fastest kid and that can change exponentially at that age and that Elite 6 year old gets left in the dust with hurt feelings (more Parents hurt feelings) and then they are left to admit they are really a tier one player or they need to work their A$$ off to catch up. Very difficult predicting talent at 7,8, even 10 years old. The sooner you figure that out, the better.
If you ask me, you're better off with a kid that is upper half but not "super elite" at mites and squirts. The game is unrealistically easy for the kids that are big and fast very young, and gives them (and parents) a false sense of security. The kids with good athletic ability that do not dominate at young ages have an easier route, IMO. The early superstars have it tough when the rest start to catch up and they just start having to really work at it at age 10 or 12, while the others have been working at it since age 8 or 9.
correct, but when your 7 year old is the big one or fast one at 7, parents think they are on the NHL path and we see these kind of posts

My point exactly. Ideal spot by squirt major is one of the final cuts for the Brick team. Kid is right there but not a superstar. And you don't have to shell out for plane tickets to Edmonton!

That is comical - I have two kids that are nearing the end of the youth hockey journey. They both played elite hockey from an early age and they both have played FED and E9. Currently one is playing E9 and one FED. Your touching yourself if you think your league is even marginally better than "the other league". They are the same period - you might find yourself on a team in one league that has a couple of stronger players or a better coach and your team might beat a team from the other league but that doesn't mean s**t. You could take 95% of any roster in FED and swap with 95% of any E9 roster. The top 5% of the roster determines which team has the edge, everyone else is roughly at the same level. They may be coached differently and they may gel better or worse but they are all pretty good young players that will probably play HS hockey if they stick with it. Get your head out of your a** and stop trying to pump your chest about your kid's league - wtf is that?!?! Enjoy the experience, find the best coach you can and try to surround yourself with kids and parents that share your values - blink and it's over.

Surprised you waited so long to reply to your own post. Obviously no one cares enough to keep your joke going.
His kid is legit, hopefully he grows and keeps developing as he is one of the best local skaters.

Thanks Mom!!!!!
Why stop there with the details, they were playing in the lowest division and went 1-2-1.
