Looks like Chris Wilkie is off to a good start with the U-17 team, had 3 assists in 3 games prior to tonight. Tonight he has a goal and an assist thus far in his first USHL game.

Ouch

Good point, he probably would be a better scorer than playmaker.

I'll give it a shot. CHL, would this be the first decommit (to the CHL) for BC?

I would say Clarke Saunders is at least somewhat proven at the NCAA level, the WCHA is a whole different animal however.

Its gonna be close, for the game against UAA we will only have 17 eligible skaters, for the UAF game we will have 18. Any injuries between now and then and Tate Maris is lining up at center.

He posted that he was injured on his twitter, nothing specific though.

He got a suspension for the exhibition game two seasons ago for a MIC.

No kidding, Rocco is a little different and maybe seems out of place to some but that doesn't mean he isn't very good friends with his teammates. He wouldn't just be bailing on the team, he would be bailing on some of his close friends, I just can't see it happening.

No kidding

This kind of confuses me, the cops were never called but the state attorney can give out MIC after the fact on alleged alcohol consumption? I didn't realize that was legal.

I can't tell if you are being facetious or not.

Big get, he is a heck of a player. Should lead the BCHL in scoring this year. I always look for your name under recent posts, because I know it will either be big news or a very interesting link.

I would expect Charlie Pelnik and Luke Voltin to be on this last at Mid-Term. Possibly even Drake Caggiula as well if he gets substantial playing time to start the season (other than the first game )

Everything I have read is that Thompson is going to shoot up this list this year. Adam Tambellini is a "B" player as well

I really would like to hear some specifics, and hoping this doesn't get any worse.

At least not yet..

There has to be more to this story, the player's aren't allowed to have a weekend party anymore? Something must've happened.

Or, just like the article said, he jumped the gun with his commitment and realized, no offense to them, but that he can play at a much better school than Merrimack. He probably committed at the first sign of interest, but then he developed and maybe realized he has a future in hockey so he wanted to go to a school to play hockey rather than using hockey as a way to go to school.

Schlossman ‏@SchlossmanGF Uncommitted Penticton Vees forward RT @wmurphy93: Off to North Dakota for a couple #nottired Looks like he is coming for a visit, I have not heard much about him until recently, but last year he had 91 points in the BCHL so realistically he should put up at least 100+ this year which would put his year on par with Travis Zajac's best year in the BCHL. I'm not saying he is anywhere near that talented because I have never seen him play, I just wanted to put a 100 point season into perspective.

The penalties stated in the press release. Parks' discipline will be handled internally and Senkbeil was suspended from all team activites for 14 days.

Especially with the recent addition of Brad Berry, I would think we have to be the favorite for this kid. He would be a very big get, potential 1st rounder this year.

When MacMillan and O'Donnell played together in Junior, O'Donnell was the center. I'm not sure if that will stay that way in the NCAA because I think MacMillan's game translates better to center (better skater, more tenacious, more of a play-maker than scorer, defensively responsible etc.) at this level.

I remember him having a fairly late birthday for his grade as well, I want to say he doesn't turn 20 until February sometime. He will graduate as a 21 year old, which is close to the age of many freshman in NCAA hockey.

I have been saying the same thing about Caggiula and Chyzyk for a while. I have compared Chyzyk's year in the USHL to Parks' last year in the USHL, Chyzyk had the better year, if given the opportunity, he could have the same kind of impact as Parks did as a freshman. I realize that Parks got top-6 minutes last year, Chyzyk might not get anywhere near that this year.
