So Sioux fans, can you tell me what these 18 players have in common and why I grouped them together?



  1. Kyle Turris
  2. James van Riemsdyk
  3. Colin Wilson
  4. Riley Nash
  5. Tyler Bozak
  6. Max Pacioretty
  7. Aaron Palushaj
  8. Kyle Ostrow
  9. Patrick White
  10. Phil DiSimone
  11. Ben Ryan
  12. Carter Camper
  13. Carl Hagelin
  14. Mike Hoeffel
  15. Tyler Helfrich
  16. Jacob Cepis
  17. Corey Tropp
  18. Scott Freeman

I guessed first, then checked, and it's INCH's list of the top forward recruits for this year's group of seniors. #19 on the list is having a big senior year.

I'll take a stab...

guys that were drafted in either round #1 or #2 that never won a National Title...?

Good guess, but no.

Wilson may have won a title at BU.

Wow that was quick. Correct. Our favorite fan site to pick on rated these 18 ahead of Matt Frattin (and Miele, Malone, and Trupp). I just had to bring this up after their Yale obsession.

Yes, INCH, they were that overrated... :p

Lot of blue chip names that never won a title.

Some of those guys were pretty good players. Not like all of them are flops.

Agreed. A lot of them are good players that didn't win anything in college and some moved on successfully to the NHL level.

No. Colin Wilson won one with BU

Its INCH Top 20 Freshman from 2007. Mr Frattin is #19

I am just saying that there are a lot of players in the 18 names that never one a title... What part of the statement isn't true?

Some have, but Turris really hasn't.

Wow, looking at that list and seeing Patrick White at #9...and seeing how his career went with Minnesota makes me ponder why Vancouver picked him up with their 1st round draft pick.

Many people questioned this.

I think it is rather unfortunate. He was dynamic in juniors.

As for the list... who is Scott Freeman? Helfrich? Oh nevermind. They both went to the ECACHL. Guess that's why I never heard of them.

Cory Tropp made a name for himself.... in a rather negative manner.

How can you judge Pat White being dynamic in juniors when he only played 12 games? Yes, he may have had 9 points in 12 games but that isn't a lot of time to judge a player. I think he would've benefited playing juniors for a full season or two to get accustomed to the faster pace of hockey. He was an overrated player with a good wrist shot, probably the reason the Canucks traded him to the Sharks.
