Ridiculous notion that somehow teams entering D should be worse than C or B teams. Provincials categories are based off of population and in theory that should give B and C stronger teams than D, but it’s often not the case. Last year D was a prime example. And on a side note some of us have no interest in who wins A. It’s an elite division for sure, but it’s a division of who buys the best players. Not impressed..

Kenaston is too good and unstopable only 2 teams could beat them the u25 Ukrainian team and the Canadian olympic woman’s team |

And even so, why can they not ride the train while it lasts. They will be an average team or less in a few years, like every other team that runs out of locals or money. |

Populations don't mean anything any more. Everything in senior hockey boils down to $$$$$$.
Provincial A- teams over $3,000/ game
budget
B- teams$2,000 -2,999/ game
C- Teams $1,000 - $1,999/ game
D- Teams under a $1,000/ game
Everyone can get whoever and as many imports as they want but can only spend that much. Teams that are spending no dollars can't compete with teams paying $7-800 a piece for a couple players, $4-500 a piece for a few others and then a half a dozen more getting $175/ game.If your team thinks it wants to compete in a higher division your welcome to it. It's sad that the best canola crop in the country dictates who has the best team!
