Imagine paying $4,000 to play for the 2010 "Elite" Breakers

0-5

Outscored 52 - 5

Same goes for 2014 'elite' breakers. Lost all their games so far by a lot.

Then there are 2-3 2014 teams below that.

Thank goodness for the Breakers and Bandits - scaring players to JF and the SSK so they can be average

And the SSK will lose many more players after this year because JF attempts to give all his players PTSD with his screaming fits

Lol! I don’t care how bad the breakers are or aren’t. I’d be sitting at around 99.9% a team of 8 year olds aren’t beating a 2010 team.

The scores are on the website ...... Tell me your a dumb FED parent without telling me your a dumb FED parent ....

Time and time again - as soon as the brick is over with the FED turn into the top 4 teams and everyone else is ok to terrible

Pay $4,000 to be coached by ex NHL dads who can't pass a cori check, and almost every NHL coach's kid is one of the worst players on the team

The FED should really be called HBD - "Here because of Dad"

But lets keep holding on to that dream - people are nuts to pay money like this and have your kids treated like they are - If your a SSK parent I don't know why you even bother anymore

League is not about development - it's all about wins and padding the owners pockets

The scores are worse than what is reported through game sheets

That Breakers team would lose to the tier 1 team ..... Abandon ship

In any sport someone's dad is the coach. It's been like this for decades. Why is anyone surprised by this?

I'd rather have my kids coach be an ex nhl guy than a guy who has never played hockey.

It's youth sports. What do you expect? Like everything else there is a price to pay.

The fact that you say it that way proves the point - just cause it's better than nothing doesn't mean its right

and

There are programs where they offer non dad coaching....

Pretty ironic that BJ is in charge of player development in the EHF when everyone knows that his son is the anchor of that Eagles team

Rumor is mass exodus is happening at the SSK after this year - smartest thing all those parents can do

Wonder who JF and coaching staff will party with now?

We all know he only cares about 4 kids

I heard from a reliable force the BJT might fold. Seems hard to believe but that's the rumor

went on live barn

the coach had bauer panthers on

its not a rumor, that's what happens every year after PW Major. Parents with older players now laugh at parents of PWs and younger taking this so seriously. Someday you will all be embarrassed of your actions. Chances are your kids are already embarrassed of you.

sorry meant to quote, not BJT. SSK exodus. Thats what happens when kids hit bantams.

I’m willing to bet if every player that lives in the Breakers jurisdiction stayed and played for the breakers, instead of chasing a better team. The breakers 2010 team would be highly competitive, if not one of the better teams in the league.

Those Breaker kids are still playing against the best talent around, I think I'd rather have my kid play first or second line for them then get minimal playing time on one of the top teams.

Sounds like you know what’s going on with this roster. You must be the goalies dad from last season that got cut! Where is you kid playing in the VHL?

You guys are all acting like someone is actually going to care where your son or daughter played pee wee hockey, enjoy the ride now EHF moms and dads because your elite hockey days are about to end once U14 hits

I have friends who think their 2015 is NHL bound because he made the 'elite' BSB team. They don't want you to forget that it's the elite team. Like he's in this entirely different league and life than the kids who didn't make elite.

And to your point if you think BA is better than BSB because they win more games playing lesser competition knows nothing about hockey either.. I don’t know why people lump every team and coach in with the organization they play for . Every level and age is different. Stay with the good coach and play with the kids your kid gets along with. It is very simple. Don’t chase wins. Organizations do not develop kids. Coaches do. BA has a very good 2011 and I hear the younger teams are good. It is because the coaches are good. . It is not because BA is doing something as an organization that everyone else doesn’t do.

Couldn’t have said it any better!
