@Jakef_65 @CTSportsShorts @CTHSHockeyDB @CTHKReport Jake, no need, I know the story and what Southington was told when they approached Sheehan. I hope it all works out and they win it now! Good luck the rest of the way!
@CTHSHockeyDB To be clear, this isn't about the illegal player, he was of little consequence. This is about allowing EH\Sheehan to decide what coop Sheehan joined which gave this coop an unfair advantage and felt dirty, not to mention breaking the very clear rules of a coop.
@CTHSHockeyDB You're tryin man, and we appreciate ya! This was nothing the coop kids did, they are collateral of selfish men. You're missing the point, there are about 400 other kids that suffer because of this crap. The Sheehan thing was unnecessary and was done in poor taste. GO EASTIES!
@CTHSHockeyDB @CTHKReport Now, next year Southington won't have a team while the EH coop has 40+ kids. Smart move @ciacsports, time to wake up and get the "Lou Pane coop" rules in place because he played you like fools. That coop committee should be ashamed and embarrassed.
@CTHSHockeyDB @CTHKReport Southington needed Sheehan and was told by Sheehan "No, we have too many players" so they could choose the EH coop. Bad setup that we allow this to happen, CIAC should choose where they go. End of the day, who cares, if they win CIAC looks stupid, if EH loses, they look stupid.
@DAGMAN5050 @CTHSHockeyDB @ciacsports The real shame was that Sheehan was allowed to join this coop breaking all the "rules" associated with having one. Sheehan has one helluva team!
@CTHSHockeyDB @CTHKReport FWIW: you realize LV recruits(lies and makes promises to kids) 12 months a year and doesn't necessarily coach? I would say the award would be better suited for a guy who has to coach the kids who show up and make them better. LV is the liar/recruiter of the year, but not coach.
@DAGMAN5050 @CTHSHockeyPod@ciacsports They deserve it! No team in this history of high school hockey has done more cheating and bending of the coop rules, than them! GO EASTIES if ya ain't cheatin, ya ain't tryin!
@DAGMAN5050 @ciacsports You're spot on! They should never have been allowed to add Sheehan and be eligible for the state tourney this year! Rules need a changin! But hey, it was all for the kids!
@stevenforrest11@ciacsports@FFHSHockey@CTHSHockeyPod @CTHSHockeyFCIAC Adding Sheehan clearly put them over. Meh, is what it is. They went through a lot of trouble to build this thing, hopefully, it was worth it and they win now.
@stevenforrest11@ciacsports@FFHSHockey@CTHSHockeyPod @CTHSHockeyFCIAC (i.e. hockey schools A = 14 B=12,C=3 totaling 29 which is permissible because it does not exceed 30 which is double the maximum determined limit of 15).
@stevenforrest11@ciacsports@FFHSHockey@CTHSHockeyPod @CTHSHockeyFCIAC This though...1. An existing Co-op “team” can add another school to the co-op if the current “team” total number of athletes is not above the maximum determined limit or it does not raise the total number of athletes to double the maximum determined limit
@stevenforrest11@ciacsports@FFHSHockey@CTHSHockeyPod @CTHSHockeyFCIAC I get it, but East Haven was allowed to add Sheehan taking them over the maximum number of players. Do we know why? I guess why are they allowed to be over and are eligible but Fairfield isn't?
@Tommyboy669977 @CTHSHockeyDB @ciacsports WOW! @MikeMadera2@ciacsports Can someone comment? The Westies would have to play a co-op that is seemingly just outside the rules. This doesn't seem fair but nothing the Easties have done to this point has been fair.
@CTHSHockeyDB You keep saying this but has that been confirmed? The rules package suggests otherwise. If you have confirmation please let us know, if this is just your assumption, that's fine but say it that way.
@CTHSHockeyDB Again, I think you have this wrong per the tournament rules. I don't think East Haven can get there with the tiebreaker being head-to-head after a potential tied win %.
