Tropical Meltdown

Any good?

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Pretty fun tournament. Like most tournaments it had good teams and not so good but was a fun time and good competition for the most part.

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Tropics U17 that won the tournament loaded with ineligible ringers who showed up for championship game but no round robin games

Typical Lovell cheaters

You mean typical summer tournament. All the local tournament orgs do that.

Re: Tropical Meltdown

If you knew anything about Lovell you would know they play kids up in divisions, not down, and would rather play less kids than more, so don’t bring in ringers buddy. Same kids start to finish, all 02’s. Sorry your a Lovell hater and your kid lost a tournament.

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Agree. If anything they play kids up and it has always been the case. The train is leaving the station and those standing on the platform are starting to panic. :sweat_smile:

HA! Then why did the 02 team play U15 and not U16 like everywhere else?

what a joke 03s playing in o4 o5 bracket refs were bad kids playing for 3teams

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Sorry your guy plays for Breakers, Kings, Terriers or Bandits and can’t make BA.

The u15 team played u15 locally to make Nationals, which they did. They played u15 Tier1 Elite (best league in country) and u16 ECEL, which is strong, and won it.

I have a great idea. Crap on a bunch of talented 15 year olds who are good kids and work hard. Classy.

And for the record, there were no ringers on the u17s Tropics. All the same 02s for every game from a couple of different teams. The team they beat twice? They actually had the “ringers”. Mostly 01’s and a couple of 00’s. Funny how nobody from Tropics complained about it.

U15 locally because all the good 02's play U16's and the route to making Nationals at U15 is the easiest. Been that way for that 02 BA since they started.....hiding from the big boys.

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Trying to figure out which idiot Kong’s Dad this is, or worse, a Breakers Dad that the kid couldn’t make the team?

Find a rope and a chair or a tall roof buddy. You are the problem with youth sports....

Re: Tropical Meltdown

U17 division was pretty good. 4 strong teams with Tropics being stacked, next 3 being filled with good 01’s, Whalers not their typical selves and of course bringing up the rear as usual an absolutely terrible Knights team....

Give it a break. NO 03's played in that bracket. If they did they were really bad 03's. Refs were typical summer refs, only one coach (two teams) had an issue with the refs, and that coach is an idiot. And, like a typical summer tourney, few kids played on a few teams, those teams were not good and their placement on two teams were irrelevant.

Act accordingly

Re: Tropical Meltdown

you must be the guy who cashed all the checks

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Tropical meltdown was good tournament.. Noreasters sent lots of teams had fun. The 04 team won again..

Do you know how big of a tool you have to be to get kicked out of a summer tournament for screaming at the refs ??

Do you know how much bigger of a tool you have to be to get kicked out of a summer tournament for screaming at the refs when you have the worst team in the tourney. Not a good look for you bud !

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Earlier poster about the Tropics was correct. 6 Russian kids showed up for finals. All 6’4” and 220 lbs. oh wait. Nope, they were the same small skilled kids from the south shore that beat up on all the other teams in the tourney by actually moving the puck around their opponents. Crazy idea of how to play the game.

Re: Tropical Meltdown

who got kicked out? A fan?

Re: Tropical Meltdown

Is Terry O’Reilly. Tropics u17 brought him in as a ringer and fought for everyone on every team then the refs. He climbed into the stands and out of nowhere Millbury pops up and starts beating some dude over the head with a shoe.

I hesitate to use the term "coach", but a guy standing on the bench, not a fan.
