Same here - 05's might have been very slightly down and 06's were slightly up

Re: E9 tryouts

The E9 program my child in is down significantly. (mid level)

Has anyone gone to any '05 and '06 E9 tryouts this week? How have the numbers been? Rumor has that tryout numbers are down at those levels across the board from previous years. Do people really believe they need to be in the Fed?



E9 numbers are definitely down this year. Keep in mind numbers will improve once Fed elite teams
Are finalized and E9 teams stuff the rosters with the leftovers.
E9 Squirt last night (good program) numbers are up significantly from what I saw last year.

Asking for a friend, his name is Fred Flintstone, he doesn't have a computer. Sorry your friend got cut from technology.

Said the guy that doesn't know the difference between spelling and grammar.

I'm generally not a d*uche about this stuff. Only when a guy knocks someone for being a knucklehead and in doing so proves himself to be a knucklehead. The post loses all credibility when you misspell the key word. Like we're supposed to believe that this guy is capable of telling us who is and is not a knucklehead.

(sorry for the snide open, I couldn't resist)

That's not grammar, it's spelling.

Play them often and would have to agree with OP

Re: E9 tryouts

On the whole, E9 tryout numbers have been anemic.

Too many teams not enough bodies to go around. Youth hockey at its breaking point.

How do you know the numbers have been anemic? That seems to be supported, and contradicted, by some posts above by people that have been there. I don't have any insight on it, just curious as to what you're basing your comment on.

You want a spreadsheet or a link to the cloud based solution with all the data? This is the D-board fella. I am commenting on what I have seen and what I have been told. There are lots of people in the hockey world who talk.

So you're basing your analysis on a sample of 10, maybe 15, teams? Out of hundreds across Massachusetts and New England. Cool story bro.

And if people in "the hockey world" said something, take it as gospel.
