The #1 defender did indeed leave for FCA. Also lost their #1 middie and #1 goalie. With the d-pole, apparently the family had finally had enough of the 2023 team neglect and antics. Little MM plays on the 2023 team when he feels like it which brings dad back to the sideline so he can instruct #1 son while disrupting what little chemistry the 23's have due to a revolving door of players, coaches and particularly the cameo appearances of the gifted one. I heard from a friend's son that he only played 2 of their 3 games the other week, going home before the last game because he didn't feel like playing the 3rd game. Heaven help any other players on that team if they tried to do the same (or while playing taking poor shots every possession resulting in the D being exhausted due to short possessions) The question shouldn't be why did a player leave, rather why have any stayed

Kid quit on his team and didn't play the last game? Went home? Sounds like the parents have a mental case. If you gonna move, at least play out your commitment. Sounds like privilege to me. Waaaaaaa. As a parent and former coach, no one wants a kid who quits on any team. Good riddance.

As a parent and former coach, I could care less about his commitment to the "team" (the club).

In fact I think it's far worse. Bailing on your boys partway through the day because you're not feeling it is weak, it shows that you are the kind of friend who can't be depended upon in a crunch. Young men don't learn this behavior from themselves nor from each other, this attitude comes from parents with no heart and no ethics. It's why all of our offices are full of 22 year olds who quit 4 months after they get the job. "Oh it was getting hard." See ya.

Boys will be Boys and especially if they are number one recruit. Cant teach talent

Boys also often turn out to be like their dads. Hopefully he's tall enough not to suffer the fate of his dad's personality.

Not a good start if what above is true . Bailing on teammates is a sure sign of not very good traits .
