[quote=Aves]Saw the 7-0 SU win over Norvan today and it could have been a few more...not in the same league.
I heard these guys won their league...I also heard that they couldn't play a few underage regulars which I'm sure was a factor today.

That about sums it up, when you are missing 4 out of 5 of your top goal scorers, it does make a difference. As a league we decided to allow "underage" players to get some of the better talent out there who no longer want to play metro, but not yet old enough for play in the other masters leagues that do not allow underage players. The smaller players pool here in North Van, and the North Vancouver Rec. Commission insisting we carry 75 percent North Vancouver players on our rosters also affected our decision.There is a price to pay for doing that, however, as was seen in the SU/Norvan game. It is my understanding that all those players will be 35 for next year, we can see then if it makes a difference.
