Walpole Express - Tier III

Walpole Express is shameless. Actually advertising “town level hockey with club experience”. So now there is complete transparency and folks still paying...

Isn’t that that there regular teams anyway???

Wake up parents. Stop feeding the money making beast. Your egos are out of control.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Play where you want to. Who cares. Go tell it to RB’s face you coward.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Are you serious buddy? Not sure if you’re his boyfriend or what but pretty sure nobody is afraid of a 5’9” 150 pound guy that’s normally 3 sheets to the wind, so yes, I have, and would again say it to his face...

It is not ego it is just a desire to let your kid play hockey with some type of friggin schedule. The SCC and VHL are miserable with the time changes, last minute scheduling, and no actual standings or idea who is playing and when. I am sorry that you think a few thousand bucks is a lot of money to pay for some type of structure. Most of us are not chasing a dream for our kids but rather just a league that is fairly organized and has competitive games, even if there are 20 benders on the ice with half in the bag daddy coaches.

See you at Mick Morgans

You couldn’t be more wrong with VHL. I’ve never had a missed schedule or wrong date in 7 years of playing. Games, dates, and rinks posted well in advance. 35-45 games through 3 sets of postings. Same w league standings and brackets. Keep writing those checks T1 Silver daddy.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Another d board genius who just spreads fake news. SSC has actual standings, and I have never had nor have I known a person who hasn’t know their schedule ahead of time, nor have I had the experience of a game being cancelled. This guy wants to charge you $1000 more than the local town program to play in the league that is the C league of the SSC. Please don’t take my word for it, ask anyone who knows anything about youth hockey.

SSC is a joke. Noone can question it.

Been there, was a PD for a town program. If you call an un-formatted word document a standings...then sure you have standings. Let's hope it is updated weekly which was unlikely.
Nothing like a 3 month parity schedule to realign teams, so the town hockey moms can brag how well juniors team is doing in one of their 6 divisions after realignment....yes 6 divisions. Herman, Re, and Middle sub divisions? B2 division....really? so the hockey moms and dads don't get offended that Jr is in the C division? Yes, B2 Herman and Re are the C division. B Re is close as well. Why doesn't the SSC just call it A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6 so the everyone gets a trophy crown is happy?

And god forbid you have a ref issues. What is the response: It is the coaches fault, no one wants to ref because of you coaches and bad parents....and EHF/E9 pay more for the better refs(...which is debatable by the way), so we can't compete.

Playoffs? The team who has the best record before playoffs gets trophies...UGH Town hockey moms love to post those pics on social media.

How about the 3 schedule releases during teh season? Love trying to plan family life when I don't know what the upcoming schedule will looking like for next week ahead.

The mentality is: We have always done it that way, so why change it?

You are a tool and the majority of what you just posted is garbage. SSC has the same playoff format as any league, 1 v8, 2v7, etc. The SSC A divison top teams in both RE and Herman can easily compete with any T1 Black level team. Wanna know why? Because they are full, and I mean full, of T1 Black and Elite players from surrounding club teams. Yes the B and C division is for kids who just want to have fun and are not serious, and some of the bottom A teams are poor, but tell me that is any different in any select league. Are you going to argue that playing the Bandits or 95 Giants is tough competition. Teams like Hanover, Duxbury, Canton, or Milton would smoke many of the T1 rainbow teams.

Ha, keep telling yourself that!

I would put PHL/VHL up against SSC any day.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Please explain what tier III league they will be playing in then genius. Maybe the Yankee conference, which is where they have moved their 0-10 EMHL teams to in the past.

Not Yankee Conf, assume it is PHL which is a step above SSC.
But then again you still think Yankee Conference still exists. Keep up Francis.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Ha, sorry your kid plays in the metro south hockey league for 3500 bucks. What a step up to pay to play in the vaunted select division of the PHL. Like one of those teams could beat an SSC b team.

My kid plays black, sorry you hate on WE.
I've enjoyed egging you on throughout the day. WIN!

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Not sure what plays black means

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

EHF- T1 Black.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

So tier 2 you mean.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Sorry your kid plays WE premier black, probably better than red, definetly better than 2005 Yankee 😂.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

Hey toolbag, WE still thinks it exists. That’s where they put their 05 team. So to reiterate, club prices for below town hockey. But they did finish third, so good for them.

Re: Walpole Express - Tier III

At least the express are being honest....look how many teams/leagues are claiming to be elite.

But they do have "elite" teams, and the talent of those teams wouldn't beat a town "A" team; . If you're familiar with Walpole and the circus that goes on there, you will understand why the term "honesty" being associated with that place is extremely funny.

Wait, SSC and VHL are now promoting an "Elite" town league....joke.
