Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

Top FED teams beat the bottom feeders by 10 goals and it they lose ground in their chase for MHR glory. Can't have it.

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

What if you play on a top town team like tro county?

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

You all do realize that 99% of the Fed and E9 players will all be playing beer league hockey with the town players at the age of 21?

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

Saying top town team is like saying good looking ugly girl.

Town is still town and your kid would be embarrassed by the 3rd line FED kid.

And just because SOMEDAY all the kids will try out for HS teams doesn't change the fact that from Mite to U14 the FED is the best league and the kids who play in e9 or below are mostly weak players.

Even BAs best 3 are middle level FED kids.

And if you move your FED kid to e9 enjoy the new label your kid will have.

Deal with it.

Some of these town teams are filled with fed players so your argument makes no sense. Hingham, Canton, Tri County, Franklin all numerous Fed kids

Um no, in 2011s bottom fed teams beat top E9 Teams

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

FED
Just like the heading says. This is the order of the leagues from best to worst.

The FED is clearly the best league in N.E. and possibly the country. Some TEAMS from the Midwest rank higher because they curate the ranking by traveling to play other top teams.

The E9 is next and is not a league of parity at all. Typically ONE team is good in that league (advantage) and that doesn't mean they are good outside the league. The drop off between that top team and the other teams is significant. This league is for tier 1 players, AA players and players who simply aren't good enough to play in the FED week in and week out. That's the truth and has always been the truth- with the rare exception.

The BHL is the mother league of e9 and the drop off here is massive. This league is for b and c level players.

The PHL is beneath the BHL and is po****ted by bad players and players who will moonlight on a "town" level team for fun or to play with buddies.

Town hockey is simply that. A mix of players who can't play elsewhere, won't drive to play or want to play with friends. If you see a great player here it is random or he playes in the FED.

Anyone who tries to tell you that the E9 is anywhere near the FED is stupid or lying. The truth is that the best e9 team MIGHT be able to beat a FED team but it is highly unlikely. The worst FED team like bandits or breakers may lose to the advantage, for example. The eagles, masscon, PHC, TG will not lose to the best e9 team.

If you are leaving a FED team to go to the best e9 team, you are moving your player in the wrong direction. Your player will win lots of games and score more goals but you know, he knows and everyone else knows that you aren't playing with or against the best.

Let's stop with the debate and recognize the truth. FED is best, e9 is a distant next, BHL is way behind and after that the leagues are just for fun.

If your kid can play in the FED on a team that isn't bandits or breakers you should do just that.

Anyone who says well this E9 team beat that EHF team once, just go look at MHR. there is no reason to debate this on here over and over and over again. look at your kids' age group(s) and see where their team is. See who is ahead, who is behind. 80% of ehf teams are rated higher than almost every e9 team in every single age group.

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

Stop looking at the leagues and look at the player. Because someone plays in the Fed doesn’t automatically mean they are good. Because someone plays in the BHL doesn’t mean they are bad.

I know quite a few kids who turned down fed teams to play BHL that are now playing prep or college hockey.

Exactly. It's all about the players. So many parents seem to think their mediocre player is good just because they're on a winning team or a team with an elite label. Ugh.

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

This post is obviously from some poor fool who’s kid is a mediocre FED player and they are merely trying to bolster their fragile ego. It’s a fact that the top E9 (and even FED platinum) players are better than the mid to lower end FED elite players. Some of those top players would also be top FED elite players. Also many of the top FED kids came out of the E9 because their parents were lured over by coaches trying to improve their team because they failed to develop their existing players. Anyone who knows anything about hockey and/or who has been through it knows that in the long run none of this matters. The true test of a player is where they are at by the time they are 18-22 years old. Austin Matthews (arguably the best American born hockey player ever) grew up in Arizona playing on mini rinks. If that doesn’t make us clear to you then you are just not going to get it until your bender ages out. So in the meantime stfu and enjoy the ride with your kid and let him have fun.

Re: FED V E9 V BHL V PHL V TOWN

The FED has a ton of players that can't hang. That is why they play top two lines and not your benders line. Glad you are elite.

Clearly a post from a parent that had a kid cut from an E9 team and now plays on bandits elite. So no kid playing in the E9 is going anywhere at any current age? This is just getting silly! Congrats on getting on the BB👏

Really long winded way to say what i been saying for years.
Top 3 teams in EHF are always the best around and if your kid is not on those teams he better be the best kid on his "elite" team. Top team in e9 can compete with those top 3 or 4 ehf teams.
After that rest of teams in e9 are just glorified tier1 teams and on par with most tier1 plat fed teams.
After that is it really worth even typing out? No difference between BHL and PHL top level. NO difference between BHL National and PHL lower levels and no difference between those lower levels of PHL BHL and town league.
If there is a difference it is pretty minor between those schlep leagues.
