Looks like some younger talent is doing well in the Elite League: Freshmen Maverick McKinnon (F) 1G 6A , RJ Thompson (F) 5G 3A, and Owen Ryan (G) .921 save% are up on the leader board. Sophomores Landon Sampair (F) 4G 4A, Nash Roed (F) 3G 5A, Johnny Gramer (F) 3G 4A, Ayvin Hontvedt (D) 3G 3A also in the top 25 in scoring.

Not sure why a kid would leave for Cleveland Barons AAA. I get it if you are going to Caesar's, Mission, Mount, SSM, BK...but Cleveland?
-
Lotta high end guys on there that are probably on every blue blood list....
-
Program and first round junior guys are unlikely to commit day 1.
-
They keep crowning guys earlier and earlier. I'm sure Dupont is a complete stud. Letang is though too. I mean Eckblad was exceptional status and he is a very good NHLer, not great.
-
I digress....both Dupont and Letang for that matter are pretty special hockey players : )

nothing more fun than stopping at the blue line and waiting fro dude, then covering his point
-
I posed the question, because I disagree with that. I think elite Fs want D that move the puck and cover the back end as opposed to carrying the puck and trying to create through the neutral zone
-
Does bringing in an elite offensive dman who likes to carry the puck turn off elite Fs? especially centers who end up covering...

RJ Thompson and Maverick McKinnon are two of the top 2010's in the country and both received invites to the HS Elite League as freshman. A handful of elite 2010 sophomores also did: Gramer, Korten, Hontvedt, and Jackson. These are 1 year out targets, as I have heard both Thompson and McKinnon have accelerated to join the early 2010's grade wise.

Kid put up points vs top competition in Minny AA too...wasn't like he padded vs the little sisters of the poor. I think he's a legit college prospect. He put up solid numbers at USA dev camps and in the elite league. I think he projects as a middle 6 college forward that could play top 6 with the right program.

Carleton is one of the top liberal arts schools in the country
-
Ellingsen, #1 pick in WHL draft and planning to play up in Brandon should be a target. Already plays Sioux hockey.
-
Fitzy is probably the best goal scorer in the 2009 age group. He would be an unreal get. He will have every blue blood offering him on 8/1

This is a very good call out that I hadn't reflected on. Great post.
