04 Parity

Let see if any cheaters are leftover from last years debacle.

Re: 04 Parity

You guys should be good but i am betting on an 05 debacle in Salem - hmmm wonder who the offender will be, perhaps Tom Gunnderhausen

Re: 04 Parity

I hate to be the one to break this to you but at 04 your benders youth hockey fun is over and so is yours

Re: 04 Parity

Who are the top teams in the U14/04 division?

Re: 04 Parity

MMF
SSK
Jr. Eagles


MMF (automatic bid), SSK and Jr. Eagles kept their players and brought in some talent.

The Boch Blazers (i.e., last year's Boch Militia) will be solid.

I heard one of the Terrier's teams out of Rockland (White) brought in talent.

The Providence H. C. (North) team (i.e., last year's Woonsocket Northstars) blew up and are not as strong. But they got an automatic bid since they won the EHF Black this past year.

The Northstars lost some kids, but I am not sure if they picked up anyone.

Re: 04 Parity

Looks like the PHC South are trying to cheat their way into the black division this year. Rostering elite coaches kid and 2 others on South team for parity when it’s known they will be playing elite next season.

And as usual EHF knew about it but chose to look the other way.. Karma will be a ***** next season when they no longer have those players and they get destroyed by other teams. Where will those players be then? Oh yeah, playing for their elite team.

I can't wait to kick the U14 PHC South team's ass all season, and twice on Sunday, next year! It will be fun to run up the score on those cheating, RI dirt-bags. Leave your cowbells at home, cheaters!

Re: 04 Parity

So who wound up in Black?

Re: 04 Parity

Here it is...the plan was to only take 10 teams with 2 auto bids so top 8 were in..however with Breakers in 10th wouldn't be surprised to see 12 in black and 11 in white to get Breakers in...if not its South Shore Kings squeaking in over Thunderbirds...

1. Islanders H. C. (West) 1 4 4 0 0 8 20 1 0.048
2. Boston Jr. Terriers (W) 1 4 4 0 0 8 23 3 0.115

PHC south should be 0 -4 and in white because of cheating.... Breakers 1 is only 1/2 season team and should be in white as well. What is the point of having a 1/2 season team in a full season division?

Thunderbirds would be in then......if there is proof of cheating the FED Gods will do something...LOL

IMO, go with 11 teams so each team plays each other 4 times over the season. After the Providence HC (South) gets thrown out for cheating, the Black division should look like...

Providence HC (North)
MMF
Islanders H. C. (West) 1
Boston Jr. Terriers (W) 1
Boston Jr. Eagles
Boch Blazers
Northstars Hockey Club
Boston Jr. Huskies
South Shore Kings
Springfield Jr. Thunderbirds
Bay State Breakers 1

Hopefully the Providence HC (North) team got some players to replace their top players leaving.

Re: 04 Parity

Didn't they do divisions this year, so it's not the top 8 in the overall standings? Could be wrong.

Re: 04 Parity

Yes, but it actually looks pretty simple. Providence N and MMF are auto bids. The next 5 spots go to the winners of pool A-B-C, and the top 2 from pool D because it had 8 teams in it. So that means based on record/points it's pretty clear cut:

Pool A - Providence S
Pool B - IHC W 1
Pool C - BJT W 1
Pool D - BJE
Pool D - SSK

The last three spots at at-large, and there are 3 teams left that had 6 points or more, and all three of those teams went 3-1 in pools where the winner went 4-0:

Boch Blazers (pool A)
Northstars (pool B)
Boston Huskies (pool C)

Every other team had 5 points or less.

Re: 04 Parity

U14 Black announcement was delayed a day. Sounds like maybe they're checking out some shady dealings?

Re: 04 Parity

EHF is embarrassing. Every year the cheating and nothing will be done. PHC sucks, look what these clowns have done to youth hockey in RI? Trying to control almost every team and no players left. Now they have to (which is called cheating) put players on multiple teams (Elite, Tier1,etc.) just to even have some teams. U14 PHC East and PHC South (without bringing in players) both teams would only have 10-12 players on a team for a full season team. You guys are a joke. Combine your teams and play in white, you are not good enough to play in BLACK division.
But with the support of the EHF league officials you will be fine by just moving your players around like you have in the past. Joke, Joke, Joke.

Re: 04 Parity

These providence kids could be Tier 1 players that may be called up due to HS conflicts of their Elite team and under EHF rules and all other hockey rules it is allowed...so unless they signed an "elite" contract they are Tier 1 Players...so technically nothing to see here...and I am not from RI and wasn't in parity...here is the rule from FED website:

EHF CALL UP PLAYERS
Players may be called upon from other teams within an organization from a younger
age division or from Tier I or EMHL teams. Any player called up for more than fifteen
(15) games automatically becomes a full- time member of that team and will not be
eligible for the playoffs.
Note: Full-time players may never play down, even if it would put them in their own age group.

Here we go, this must be a PHC south official? Every team in the league is aware that you brought in players from the PHC Elite team. Names travel really fast in the hockey world. Everybody is aware that your Elite team fell apart as soon as it was out of the bag that the HC was leaving as well. New Coach was involved with your former Friars team. For example, his kid was playing as well this past weekend in parity and you saying that his son did not make his Elite team? You are full of ****, how can you sleep at night? Disgusted and hope the EHF will step up.

Re: 04 Parity

Not from RI and not in EHF...if there was wrongdoing FED will step up like they did last year. I was only pointing out one way that it could have happened. If they cheated they should be crucified. I am sure if there was cheating the league has been inundated with calls from Directors as they put something up on their site saying all challenges should be in by Tuesday May 1st..which makes me think they are looking into this...as they did last year...I actually cant stand the cowbells and hope they get bounced..

Islander parents out in full force...people you lost and now you have to move on..if there was any "cheating" the FED will do something but looking at the teams the South Played they beat the Monarchs, Islanders West, Islanders Eat and the Huskies. HUskies are already in, Islanders West may make it in depending on the outcome of the Iteam investigation, Islanders East would be out no matter and Monarchs would be out no matter what happens.

Providence East beat conquistadors and breakers. Conquistadors were terrible and are out but Breakers could be in...KARMA is a b**** as the Breakers cheated last year....

The good news is the white division will have some strong teams with resentful parents who now think their kids just went from top 3 in the NHL draft to undrafted free agents...they can get the providence kids back in beer league...

I think they all wind up in the beer league anyways. Last year it was not allowed seeing as the elite teams were full season. Now that it’s half season those kids are rostered on teams which makes it A okay to play on their team. Now move on and cheer your kids on to the beer league.

Re: 04 Parity

Yes that was why the play up rule for 15 games is in play which the other parents fail to grasp..some kids in 8th grade need full year so they play up for some elite games which is like a 10 game season and then they go full year for their primary team...nothing to see here move on

Never said it was bad judgment. The bad judgment is the arbitrary rules that get followed differently every year. Only leads to criticism. U14 is a big dropoff year anyway, so as someone already said, no one really cares.

Some are, some aren't, especially if they are 8th graders next season. Some of the best 04 are also playing U16 (locally and billeting out of area). To some extent, it will be decided on the ice when the FS U14 teams play the SS U14 team. The best goalies are all playing FS U14 and at least one playing U16 that I know of.

To some extent, it will be decided on the ice when the FS U14 teams play the SS U14 team. The best goalies are all playing FS U14 and at least one playing U16 that I know of.
Handful of 8th Grade SS U14's will be playing Varsity as 8th graders @RL/BBN/Thayer/BC



Re: 04 Parity

Is it true a bunch of Eagles flew the coop?

Looks like it's the Kings and Rats that are stacked

Re: 04 Parity

Eagles FS yes, mainly to Rats, along with Islanders. Eagles SS will be strong, along with Rats, SSK, SPA, and MFF.

Looks like they broke the 10-team rule to squeak in the Thunderbirds after they rolled through silver last year. Good to know the Fed is still sticking to their rules.
Why is it bad to use some judgement as opposed to setting an arbitrary cutoff based on a weekend\'s worth of games?
Never said it was bad judgment. The bad judgment is the arbitrary rules that get followed differently every year. Only leads to criticism. U14 is a big dropoff year anyway, so as someone already said, no one really cares.
Well I can agree with you about the arbitrary rules. No parity system will be perfect. But four games over a single weekend of the off-season introduces a lot of potential sources of error.

I like 11 teams. Everyone plays each other 4 times, 2 home and 2 away games. Plus the Thunderbirds proved they belong.

Re: 04 Parity

The PHC East should stop whining and get off the dboard. You were standing next to EHF board members all weekend.. Get a clue. No one cheated...

Re: 04 Parity

I cant wait for Dan Fawcett and Matt Smith to get Ip address from Sweeney as everything posted on the dboard is regulated and he finds out who from his own PHC club is smashing his org and throws their asses out.

That must be why you are banned from the 7 organizations you’ve been to in the last 8 years.

Lol..... Nice Life!

Re: 04 Parity

what is this guy talking about.. just let the kids play and stop getting involved.. u sound like a moron

Re: 04 Parity

Parents up at Merrimack can't be too happy with the Islanders East down in white. At 1-3 in parity they weren't even close to making black. I thought IHC East was supposed to be their flagship program and leading towards their mighty USPHL?

Re: 04 Parity

They promise all the kids USPHL when they threaten to leave. They even did it with a Silver player. Comical but it works.

Re: 04 Parity

After all this, who will be the team (s)to beat in the Black division? Looks like the teams that went 4 - 0 this past weekend really did not play anybody strong.
