Substantive? Well I posted Hockey Alberta's Long Term Player Development Model earlier. For this age group it very clearly states equal playing time. The LTPD comes down from Hockey Canda.

I have simply stated my experiences. You were stating what you thought coaches should do - that is why I asked what you were basing your comments on.
Wasn't crapping on you, was simply asking the question. And you gave the reasoning for your view. All good.
