[quote="justahockeymom"]Well I happen to be on the Flames and very proud of it. Whether we have 1 or 2 moorhead players or if we only have 7 skaters and 1 goalie. Are we upset that those 3 kids left and went to Flyer Junior Gold yes. Why? Not only because they were good skaters, but because they were good kids from what I hear. Their friends that are still on the team miss them for those two reasons. Do we understand why they left absoulutely they had friends there that they wanted to play with.
My whole thing in it is this things will all come around. Our kids were they dissappointed that they lost all 3 games this weekend sure they were but they got to play and had fun overall the whole weekend. Do I think the Flyers should send kids to us, not if they don't want to and the kids don't want to play with our team and that is who it should be upto the kids. The only thing I have to say is if there are kids that are not getting ice time well come on over cause lordy you will get ice time here with us and alot of it hahahaha. I say hats off to all Junior Gold players keep the game clean and fun. Oh and don't forget good luck to all. One last thing I do have to say though is it was pretty funny being in Watford City on Sunday and last year the name calling that was coming from everyones mouth like CHEATERS or they have RINGERS on there team sure did not hear any of that when they womped our butt. HMMM that is kind of funny is it not. IT is always different when the W is on the other side. As always who is this for the kids not you adults keep that in mind when you are calling names as well who learns from you.
When the small town teams win, everything is fine and dandy, when a bigger city in the league wins, then we are either cheaters, recruiters, ringers, etc.... The Flames earned the championship last year. For 3 days, they were the best team. They came together at the right time. There was lots of whining about the Flames. Now, there is whining about the Flyers. All because a group of friends decided to play together and have fun doing it.... Isn't that the point, to play with friends and have fun???
The Flyers were in the same position 2 years ago that the Flames are in now, they went out west with 8 skaters and 2 goalies to start the year and got whoooooped. They ended up with 11 skaters that year. Those kids are all seniors now and returning the favor a little bit...... The Flames will be in the same boat in 2 years. Everything is a cycle. When Langdon and Watford kicked everyone's butt last season, no one cried. But when a Grand Forks or a Fargo can do the same, its NOT FAIR!!! WHAA WHAA WHAA
