Nope nope he is just a jerk

All you haters out there....Thing about brim is that each time he is the head coach of a team he wins it all each time even when not having the best players. He gets the best out of his players and phenomenal motivator. My son has played for him for years and thinks the world of brim. Many more coaches out there to give a hard time to who do not produce positive outcomes for the boys.

Then why did so many kids leave the 2023 program this year? And please don’t say because he was no longer going to be their coach!

Ok 2023 weeks 2; who you got?

Hawks vs 91
FCA vs Looney's
Crabs vs Club Blue

Next Level and BLC not of the schedule and NL has yet to play a game in HOCO this year.

Team 91 almost pulled the upset last week against Looney's; can they follow that up with a showing against the Hawks? Nope double digit win for Annapolis. #9 scored at least 5

Big Bad Looney's and their physical game against a smaller, more athletic FCA team minus their FOGO who is out for the year. Looney's by 3

Club Blue's first game in the HOCO league against a Crabs Team who everyone is considered dead; I'll ride the Crabs and their goaltending. Crabs by 2

Where is NL playing the qualifier?

Shameless goalie plug DC...shameless

Anyone else see the officiating go nuts on the first week... Make sure your kids sticks are in order... 3 minute un-releasable and beginning of the half already a man down cost Looney's 2 goals on the first weekend of games

It is a Cedar Lane and the top four teams play at 1:50 based on the teams playing very likely NL will have a 1:50 game which would make it tough to play Sunday

Best goaltender in the 23 division with Hawks a close second.

Talk is cheap! Hawks goalie stats are legit!

Better defense not a better save percentage; not even close.

Thank you! I could not find anything on Tourney Machine; would you happen to know who they are playing?

True - Hawks has a great defense. First half - goalie, crabs scored 1 - goalie made 3 saves. That equates to a 75% save percentage. Pretty good numbers. 4 goals scored in the 2nd half on a different goalie - who also made a few great saves.

Also - past few years - least amount of goals scored against the hawks in the division. Rings true for almost every tournament as well. Good defense, good goalies...

Seems people are talking only about Hawks beating Crabs in the first game this year - but they also beat Crabs 11-3 in Young Guns this past summer when the crabs team was intact and winning a lot....

Hawks seem to have good defense, good goalies and pretty good offense.
All around strong team.

And yes, I am a proud Hawks parent.

HAWKS are a team on and off the field. We have been on this team since u9 and I can only think of 1 kid/family that left the team on their own. That family went to the Crabs and now has left them, and they will leave their new team.

99% of the kids including mine could get significantly more playing time, scoring opportunities, expanded role at other Elite programs but we love our families and teammates.

I am not the players dad or even a Crabs dad but if you have any integrity at all do not by anonymous. You are calling out a specific player on a 7th grade team. This is a small world and people figure out who you are.

It’s the mom -and you’re welcome. happy to provide real numbers as opposed to just talking about who’s who behind anonymity and how you feel at the time.

My post was in response to the one that said Hawks goalie is a close second to the crabs - only because of the strong defense. Maybe that’s true, maybe it’s not - but calling out kids and parents is a little ridiculous. I never said anything negative about another player.

Goalie is a difficult position and every kid at every level should be given credit for being in the cage. They will all have good days and bad days.

They are not valued only by goals against (the only thing tracked and compared right now in hoco) or save percentage (which only a parent knows or someone actually taking stats from a film) but also by their leadership on the field, clearing the ball, opening up opportunities for transitions from defense to offense.

It is what it is.

Hawks goalie hands down is the best goalie in hoco 2023. Crabs #1 goalie is not in the same stratosphere as the hawks goalie. Read the above posts and hawks goalie is a stud.

BLC husky lefty defenseman is best in hoco 2023.

Hawks big right handed middie/attack is best in hoco 2023.

Next level tall middie is best fogo in hoco 2023.

Crabs lefty attachkman is best in hoco 2023.

All hoco 2023 teams are solid this year. I think it will come down to hawks and next level for the best team this season.
