Hearing rumblings again that Brampton is in serious trouble.
That would leave Ontario ACH with just 3 teams. Not good.
Didn’t the league post they wanted to add two teams this season?

Brampton is out. League is better off without them even going to three teams.

Do you have that confirmed?
I last heard they were refusing to release players and asking for money from them. Also heard that the league and OHA were deferring a decision until late October, just before start of season. I can only assume they were hoping for a hail mary to save the team?

Let's just say that. Brampton is hanging by a thread.

The league executive must have caved in to keep the league at 4 teams, and cut them a sweet deal. IMHO, this looks bad on the league.

Let's just say that. Brampton is hanging by a thread. Apparently that was a pretty strong thread.

Unless they got a sudden influx of cash or the league cut them a sweet deal to keep ACH at 4 teams. I have my bet on the latter.

I have my bet on the latter. www.instagram.com/royalman902/I am to understand that this IG page is the owner of the Brampton team. Apparently he has several identities on social media including John Doh, John Dough, John Cook, RoyalMan and KB. Despite what looks like a decent signing or two of late...Based on some of these IG posts, stories of their financial issues and using ineligible players...perhaps the concerns about this franchise and players wanting out were justified?

Brampton is in with new personnel in charge. The schedule is finalized with the first games Nov 16-18 weekend. I hear it is 18 games per team.

The owner brought in new blood to pay the bills he owed. The main guy is still majority owner and pulling the strings. He fancies himself some sort of mogul building his "empire" (that's a quote). Sadly for the players, I don't see the marriage lasting the full season.
