Blazers and Cyclones out. Did NE Edge pull out also? Who is in just TA from Cape Cod?

Web sites not updated, no information. A few more of the many reasons the EHF runs circles around the E9 and makes them look stupid at every turn.
I wouldn't go around beating my chest bragging about how well the EHF administers their league. The spring parity round was a fiasco. Would you rather know which teams are in your division in August, or would you rather have a more effective parity tournament and more balanced divisions? Will the EHF move teams mid season if they realize they made a mistake? BHL does.
Substantively you're correct. But, it's all about marketing and selling something to the parents, not about the hockey. On its merits, the EHF is probably slightly better top to bottom than the E9 over most of the birth years (until the hitting starts), but the differences are nowhere near what parents on this board would like to believe. However, as far as marketing, image and salesmanship go - there is no comparison.
lol..."slightly"
Demonstrating the poster's point. You are the fish that gobbles up the bait. Why do you feel the need to extol the superiority of the EHF on this board? Do you own one of the teams? Or do you think that if you promote the league your kid will always have a spot? I don't get it. In the grand scheme of things, the two leagues are virtually the same. EHF gets more of the top end players, so their teams tend to be stronger. That's the difference. That and they have a much better playoff format.

Facts and reasonable comments have no place on this board!

Supposedly Walpole Express are supposed to be IN. I did hear that many of the Boch Blazers players/teams were just moving over to Walpole wholesale anyway and didn't pay their "dues" to the league as they knew they would be consolidating with RB. Tough to see how Blazers could make a go with SSK, Huskies, Crimson and Express within like 7 miles.
I don't know how many Express teams will actually make the move out of the PHL but the word on the street is PHL Premier teams would move to E9/BHL for this year.
