Tema: Inactive Teams with Potential National Team Players

This thread is for posting links to teams that may soon go defunct which may have players of interest to one of the national teams.

If you happen to notice a veteran team (with good facilities) that is inactive and about to go defunct, post a link to the team in this thread in case the team has national team caliber players that are not yet old enough to warrant a spot for a particular national team.

The North Stars have folded. I added 2 players, who might have a small chance of becoming relevant, to the U18 roster, and they are currently on the market.

We need one of these in basketball. LOL

OK, We’re done with the roster for following World Cup division I . I bet we can go to the best division. USA never been there! and I want to make it! We have last game before the WC against Czech Republic. Thank you so much fo everything to my scout Capsaicin and my assistant coach MaxOo. You guys helped me and that’s awesome. I think I got a lot of experience from you guys.
I will happy if we will work together in another season too!

WhaleForever† has gone inactive in league 2.3. He had a great team.

I saw that.

The manager of WhaleForever was the U20 manager. His assistant (a manager who was on his way to becoming a more competitive team) also folded this season.

I think the U20 NT is cursed. Its manager, usually a relatively active manager when they start, often ends up quitting. This happened midseason with the last 5 managers and the 7th one going back. The last 3 managers didn't last 2 seasons. Managing a national team is relatively time consuming (cumulatively - it's not too bad after finishing with the scouting and team selection until the final 2 weeks of the season). In addition, it's been getting harder to find anyone willing to manage the teams. In handball, I had to sign up for the U21 team on the last day of the season because there were 0 candidates.

In any case, we need a new U20 manager, though I worry encouraging someone to sign up is tantamount to encouraging someone to prepare to quit in the near future. I can provide scouting information for all eligible players who played for the U18 team or who were scouted and considered for the U18 team.

Of all the managers that have managed a national hockey team for the United States, only I, the last 3 senior NT managers, and Ziggy00 are still active.

I am coach for National Team and I want to just say it is hard work, you need a lot of times for this team. I’m studying players every day and trying to find some good talented player for the future. Capsaicin said it is hard find some managers who wants coaching NT. I could take team U20 but you guys need vote me. I need to find more times for this game! I still don’t know if it is good idea coaching two teams.

What are you doing that takes everyday?

Watching players , watching other teams taktics, thinking about lines.....
