It's gonna be perhaps a long year for Woodbury. WBL is an OK team but not exceptional. They were just able to showcase Woodbury's weaknesses.brandy38 wrote:Unbelievable. Bolin should just jump ship after this year. I hope for his sake he does.
I am not sure how acurate this statement is, there is much talk on another post about this team having perhaps the best line in the state, surely in the top 5. If that is the case, and that line is on the ice 50% of the game, they must be better than OK, we will see as the season goes on.WBL is an OK team but not exceptional.

Makes sense to me, Wes Bolin has been quoted a few different times as saying this team has to be the least experienced in the state. Talking with some of the parents, Woodbury only has 3 kids who played varsity hockey last year, one of them went out with a severe back injury, and one of those maybe got a shift or two each game. 2 new goalies, 5 new defencemen and 6-7 forwards that have never played a minute of varsity before 2 weeks ago. Not sure what you would expect out of this group.Wait a minute--the last few years Wes is the greatest coach of all time, now he has less talent and he should jump ship---lets see how good of a coach he is then ????????

My point here was that WBL has only one really good line and it is on 50% of the game. That weakness will show when they play a good team. You can't win against good opponents with only one line. Bolin has been blessed the past few years with some pretty good talent. We'll see how good of a coach he is coaching a less talented group. IMHO, he arrived at Woodbury at just the right time and reaped the benefits of several others' hard work.

I see they have moved up in LPH rankings so a few others must agree.netminder.net wrote:I am not sure how acurate this statement is, there is much talk on another post about this team having perhaps the best line in the state, surely in the top 5.
