Skates, its not really fair or accurate to belittle the Wave or their competition as lower tier. Wave tied OCHC 1 and beat OCHC 3 in a close game. These may not be top teams in your view, but they certainly cannot be characterized as lower end teams. Right now, I would say there is only team that is clearly ahead of the pack, and that is Runtso Ducks, based on their 7-0 record to date. Even then, I don't think there is a lot of separation with many of the other teams. Btw, you clearly have an opinion as to the top teams, so let's hear it.
I was not belittling the wave 1, I was just stating my opinion. At this point I don't think that OC 1 and 3 are top A teams either. OC 3 has lost twice to runsto ducks now by a wide margin (not even close)(but they could get better) and OC 1 is doing just okay.
We have a long season to go and I do hope the teams get better, it makes it a fun season. All I am saying is that some predictions may be too soon to make.
My top team 3 predictions so far is, 1. Runsto, 2. Bears, and 3. 0C 2
I see Wave 1 at this time around 10th place but that could change if I ever get to see a score from a game where they have played a team in the top 6.
Hmmm... I guess my beginning of the season predictions were not too far off. Just in a different order. With Eagles and Maple Leaves in the mix. And OC2 and Eagles will be number 1 or number 2.
And I was right about the Wave1 too. 12th place is where they landed. I guess there was too much hype over them.
Good luck to both OC2 and Eagles next weekend.
