The ranking system is obviously flawed or other input is definitely involved you have several teams with one point in a silver division during seeding remaining at silver instead of being dropped to bronze!!?? also you have teams who won (1) game during seeding remaining at the same level as seeding round... That is not right for many reasons....the kids obviously cannot compete at that level and should be placed in/at a level where they can compete and develop...too many organizations do this injustice to these kids for the "draw" to the organization. The kids are getting their heads beat in during seeding losing every game but one or getting only one tie and that qualifies them as a silver team?? I don't see that going on in the other tiers as much. The kids should play where they will get the MOST development not what draws the kids to the organization.
ReplyDeleteIn the gold blue division during seeding you have Rockford 1, Admirlas 1 and IceDogs 1 all three teams combined won (1) game!! And they remain in a gold division for the regular season?? Please explain how this happens.
ReplyDeleteGood questions. It happens because these brackets are sized to make putting the schedule together a bit easier. On the flip side, that Sabres 3 team that scored 80 goals and only gave up 3 only moves up 1 level instead of going to Silver Tier 1 where they belong. A couple of years ago, NIHL did stuff like that. Now there are too many teams and pretty much everyone stays at the level their club sticks them in at. So enjoy getting your brains beat in this year!
ReplyDeleteLol it's all about the $$$ which is so sad
