the Wessey's are not an allstar team; because these players come from private schools doesnt mean they are all stars. they usually put together solid teams but that in my opinion is good for the league. Country, what makes JRG-A and the Metro league as fun as it is; is having good teams to compete a...

rules for 07-08

Has anyone heard if JRG is playing the delayed offsides/ touch up rule this year?
I believe last year they said it was a one year trial; I haven't heard if they plan on continuing with it this season; but I hope they do!

I'm not making excuses; just stating facts about why some talented
hockey players end up playing JRG.
If you are from d-8 they only have JRG-B teams with an ocasional
team playing in the Metro league at the A level.
Like I states earlier; see for your self.

A good JRG team would destroy most if not all JV teams.
The better JRG teams are stacked with seniors that have both JV and
VS experianced players.

WIN = 3 POINTS
TIE= 2POINTS
HEP=1 POINT

Hep points has nothing to do with the new style of hockey, the way they are supposed to call penalties is taking care of that.
with the inconsistancies of the refs some teams benifit while others suffer.

cp vs wbl champlin didn't play very well in that game, but it only took
two players to win anyway! # 21 and the goalie. I guess this doesnt say
