Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Coach Bolding will be smiling ear to ear if rumour is true (Sophie) and with his acquisition of a goal scoring F(Lortie)and a solid D(Lascelle) from OHA will surely help the Cadets to reach their status as a DIII champion

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Where are you getting these statistics from? Since most of Canada's prep teams across the country don't generally play against one another (and there are very few hockey-specific preps to begin with), your professed #2 ranking for OHA is pretty hypothetical.
Similarly, OHA does not typically play against the PWHL teams much. Furthermore, having seen all the PWHL teams alot this year, and seeing OHA play against them, a #8 ranking among PWHL teams is a big stretch.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Blah....blah....blah..........today i win.........tommorrow you win.....just shows that on any given day the good teams win some then lose some.
Sure NAHA has won more games over OHA but most of the games were 1 goal games I dont think many teams gave NAHA a run for their money like OHA did.....................always good competion between both,very exciting to watch

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
From an OWHA perspective, the OHA team carries too many imports to be eligible for things like PWHL and Provincials. Technically there is a league for OHA to play in. The same one Ridley, Appleby and Trinity are part of as they are some of the other Ontario based prep schools with hockey programs.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Many schools, OHA included, run good programs. But before you spout off on how good OHA is compared to the rest, you may want to check some stats and facts.
NAHA vs OHA was 7-1 in games won-lost during the last season. Some teams did give NAHA more than just a run for their money, including a couple of other Canadian Prep teams. BC Pursuit won 5-1 over NAHA in a tournament final. Warner beat NAHA in the JWHL playoffs to win that event.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
The U19 rankings are populated with only about a 1/2 season of data....most of these teams have played about 70 games by now, but only 30ish are listed. So the rankings, to whatever extent the statistical methods of comparison may be accurate, are VERY out of date.
In the case of the Toronto Aeros, ranked #1 according to this site, they blanked NAHA 5-0 in their only meeting. The Aeros have never played OHA.
The Mississauga Chiefs, ranked #2 on this site, played OHA only once, and blanked them 3-0. They later tied NAHA 4-4 in their lone meeting.
I am unsure if OHA ever played the other PWHL teams as you suggest. As OnMAA pointed out, NAHA beat OHA 7 times out of 8, and other Canadian prep schools including Pursuit of Excellence and Warner both beat NAHA in key events too. So OHA's one win in 8 tries vs NAHA doesn't look too compelling.
Frankly, given not only the lack of data input for all ranked teams for the second half of the season, but when combined with very little overlap of schedules between OHA and the teams they are being ranked against to strengthen the statistical validity, I would say the value of this OHA ranking of #8 would have to be quite dubious.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Missy was under the OWHA limit. You are only an import for your first year. For example Saulnier was not considered an import from an OWHA perspective last season, even though her home residence is NS, as she played on an OWHA based team the year before.
it didn't stop Mississauga

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Is the limit two or three? Broker, Pitts and Pfalzer were all from out of province and in their first year in the OWHA.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Two is the magic number for Provincials. It is not about rostering, but about who dresses/is eligible for the event. You can have players on your roster not eligible for provincials.

Has anyone seen these two play this year? Dawson is a great program from what I hear.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Might want to look at the rooster when NAHA beat OHA except for tournament play like Winterlude when they beat them--- i believe OHA coached pulled up girls from his younger team to play NAHAs white girls

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
Well if it only about being able to compete at Provincials, then the rule is of little consequence for PWHL teams. No one really cares about them much anyway.
If they could, most top teams would far rather add another Can-Am type tourney to their schedule instead of entering Provincials.

Re: Norwich Women's Hockey
So your saying then, that he loses 7 games in a row because he opted to play the wrong players, and he still doesn't make any adjustments to change his game strategy at all in that time? Maybe they need a different coach then. Got any more excuses?
