Wizzards are a scam. Carry about 11-12 kids per year and bring in 4-5 alts consistantly. All Dad coaches. Horrible coaching and all about their own kids development. E9 is a complete farce anyway, Same 3 teams at the top every year, all the rest suck. It\\\'s a fake league.
Isn\'t that the same as EHF at any given birth year? 11s it is IHC terriers and MFF.
Not really. The E9 teams can be beaten by any Top tier 1 team. It's a money grab and an ego boost to the fools that coach that league. The same 3 average teams battle it out every season and celebrate their wins over the rest of the loser league. But, the Wizards are the worst when it comes to coaching and bringing in outsiders. You never know who will show up, but they'll take anyone just to win a game. It's pathetic to watch.
That’s awesome. Obviously you kid is a lower level elite player and you can’t take it that many of the e9 top players are far better than your kid and that makes you angry. Reality check-the league doesn’t make the player and your kid will likely top off in high school and if he’s lucky may make a college club team. Your kid can’t escape his genes. Enjoy the ride.

Good coaching makes your kid better. And you won't find it there.

First of all, what you just described is every league in MA. What team doesn't have all daddy coaches? Which daddy coach doesn't primarily care about his own kid's development? What league or division isn't usually dominated by the same 3 teams every year?

The E9 is what it is. Somewhere around the bottom of Fed elite and top of Tier 1. My kid moved from E9 to a top T1 team and it's been meh. Nice to not get rolled by the Railers anymore but if you think the E9 is a farce, you haven't seen the bottom of platinum.

Like the EHF doesn't have daddy coaches? What org doesn't have daddy coaches? Who the hell would want to coach kids if they don't have a kid on the team?

I'm guessing the larger point here is daddy coaches that don't know how to coach. And, don't understand that by coaching the whole team, your kid develops in the best way. Don't know who the wizards are, but my kids have been in these bad coached situations before. And, we quickly moved on.

It can depend. Many of the dad coaches played high level hockey themselves and know the game well. in MA people who played high level hockey seem to be a dime a dozen.

I disagree. If by "High" you mean high school, then maybe. True high level? nope.

Re: East coast wizards

2012 wizard coach played at BU and AHL. I would consider that fairly high level.

Re: East coast wizards

My kid has been in both EHF and E9 (yes, my kid got cut). EHF, for the most part, seems to be the most strict as far as bringing in outsiders. Each week you show up, you know who you’re playing. E9 is hilarious, especially the bottom half teams. When you add in those “independent” teams, you can forget about it. Any kid in New England that’s available on that given day could show up and play. Are there outlier’s to this statement? Absolutely. This is just my observation.

You are 1000% correct with your assessment.

Re: East coast wizards

Please both leagues have alternates showing up regularly.
Anyone that claims EHF does not do this and ahs strict rules in place is flat out lying or just trying to convince themselves.

Re: East coast wizards

and the best and most re****ble programs in either league don't do it.

Re: East coast wizards

thanks for hittin' me up with your knowledge. 3 kids that have played in every league combined. i'm well aware it's all over. this sh*t organization is just the worst I've seen. bottom line, the better teams don't do it. fact.

They bring in alts to make money. To attract full time kids to a weak team.

What is going on with the East Coast wizards teams. It seems like they bring new kids to their games at every age group. I have never seen so many different colors, helmets and gloves on one team before in my life. Are they that desperate for a win?

Re: East coast wizards

If your bender is any good in hockey, you want him to play strong competitions. Consider yourself lucky that wizards coach tried to bring in alts to be competitive. Maybe focus more on your bender and help him move up a level, so that you don’t have to play wizards in the future.
