&lt;p&gt;A lot of teams with people under 19 (Quebec and the other states that aren&amp;#39;t eligible) got affected. Some of those teams had the potential at winning the cup... EA needs to find a way that those people can participate... (ex. people under 19 getting parental permission....) just throwing that out there..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;in the playoffs, anything happens.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Congrats to Shammers and No CryBabys.&lt;/p&gt;

It was a great year, cant wait for NHL10.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s a tough call for us to limit the number of teams given there are so many good teams out there. &amp;nbsp;The way the tournament is structured this year has us leaving out some excellent teams in D1. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

My team played over 3000 games but we&amp;#39;ve got 0 chance of getting in based on points(D2 around 20 but was 4th in October). We&amp;#39;ve got a win-loss margin that&amp;#39;s bigger(1000+) than # of games played by some of the top teams. I just thought some sort of continuity should be rewarded. Just throwing that out there.......&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-throwing a hail mary&lt;/p&gt;
