I would think any BHL/E9 Elite team would come close to the top of that table.
EHF itself thinks you're a moron. Looking at my kid's tournament schedule in late August, the MMF (the hosts) invited: the top three EHF finishers in the BY, the top two AYHL teams and the E9 champion. That's basically how reasonable people view the three leagues. The EHF is deeper and the top teams are better, the AYHL and E9 (in that order) are not as deep, but the top teams can compete. Not a clue why EHF Elite parents (I am one) are delusional, but in the end, it doesn't matter. These leagues do produce good hockey players, and most players from all of them don't play past high school.
Not saying this is you, you seem normal but this board is the only place for hockey parents to come and brag about their little all-stars. Ever see a hockey parent telling some town parent at a football game how awesome their kid is at hockey, doesn't work, it's a niche sport and doesn't compare to the big 3 sports. So what you have is a collection of frustrated parents who have no outlet to shine on about their future D1 star. No one outside of the youth hockey world knows about the levels of play, just town or club. They don't know the difference between Elite and T1 Mustard, E9 or PHL. They just see two kids with Breakers jackets, or two kids from different leagues with an elite hockey tee, and that ****** some parents off. Try explaining it and they'd get an ice cream headache. So we have to eat our own.
I like this post. Eventually, the cream will rise to the top. Many parents of youth superstars struggle emotionally having to watch the window open and close before age 13.

Who will win? A team of eleven year olds. We don't rank over 40 softball teams, leave the kids alone.
11 year olds will win - really?! How is discussing on a board, specifically created to discuss youth hockey, which teams are solid affecting the kids?. And all sports rank, even your out of shape softball team has a playoff system
Putting aside the fact that 11 year olds are not playing real hockey yet. These particular 11 year olds are not at the top of their sport, they are playing rechockey, like rec softball is not MLB. No point in this discussion unless it makes you feel better dad.

You are on the Youth section of the Ice Hockey Dboard, reading and replying to subject 06 Silver for what reason exactly or is it to open our minds and educate us with your vast knowledge?
Just wait until they play tag up offsides, take slap shots, check each other and play with and against older kids. Your kid will be fine no longer playing but you'll be devastated, where's my return in investment! He got screwed by the coach! Enjoy the ride

Silver can get kids ready to play some varsity high school at a decent D2 or D3 school.
Elite, white, black, silver, etc.
Highs school is the end of the road for most of these kids.

So, since it's the end of the year for most kids, I guess it's ok no matter where they play
