2023 DVHL Commitments

<< < (2/3) > >>

Guest:
If the DVHL does not merge with NJ, consider it dead along with the clubs still in it.  Genesis must be scrambling now that they were denied AHF.  Parents will certainly not put up with another year of this crap.  Kids with talent (AA) are not going to develop by playing in watered down divisions.  Several of the AA divisions in the DVHL were MOSTLY composed of A-level teams.  So, 2 or 3 teams would crush the remaining 6-8 teams and no kid is served by that model.  It is really that a program that is as healthy as Genesis is going to get gutted if they don't figure something out soon (like in the next month).  A merge with NJYHL is the only way forward as I doubt going independent is something anyone in Genesis is interested in.

Guest:
Genesis applied and were denied entry to AHF? Source?

If that is true then Black Bear seems to be pushing remaining rinks into financial trouble so they can buy them up at a discount. Genesis is really the only rink outside of Aston that would be attractive to the AHF to add. Exton would also be attractive due to the historic quality of their top teams. The rest are filler rinks with single sheet facilities.

Guest:
Is this speculation that Genesis was denied entry or is this a fact?

Guest:
Is anybody surprised that they would be denied? Gunty and most of his partners don't have a relationship with the rink owners or Genesis hockey club management. Montagna and Jackson are DVHL board members and they've locked horns repeatedly in the past.

"There is no rift and you will most likely see Genesis in the AHF next year."
"I thought there was a rift between Genesis, Delco and Team Philadelphia whos owner is an officer or something for the AHF. Something about Genesis and Delco putting Team Philly on a probation period after Ice Line did the Quakers dirty. If that is true that could carry over to them joining the AHF but I could be mistaken though."
looks like this comment from the rift post seems to be accurate.
