      7 is one more than the "Standard" rule for BTHL/......same number that Cincinati had that is doing most of dtthe complaining. Funny thing is the teams that were at the bottom of the standings were polite and their parents/kids did not or were not whiners. Its the teams that feel they were"cheated" and had the SAME number of second year players plus about 10 more that are whining. The issue is they got LUCKY(if you want to call playing an largely uncompetive division luck or a waste of money) and got a split in their division where they got the lot of the weaker teams and also had the same record and were basicallyt afraid to play Butler on their own ice(ie cancelled said the weather was not good even though they played there as home ice for years)they took 8 players in one year and absorbed them into their organization. Butler has a very good work ethic......try it.....it really works as evident by their record.When they lost in their last game they never whined like some of the 2nd best teams do
