interesting to see some of the top players not in this prospects tournament happening now. and some of the players on there that won't get drafted. was this a money grab or what's the story with it?

Invited players didn’t have to pay (my kid didn’t have to) and it’s a chance to play a few more games with guys he doesn’t usually play with. Kids are having fun, well run so far, everyone knows it’s not going to change anything with the draft so just enjoy it.

Sens goalie JI will go first, I think in 2nd round.

Agree JI is lights out. Which goalies are next.

Question.

Does every kid that gets drafted have pre draft interviews?
I have a relative in this age group. I’d consider good enough to be at least mid tier draft. Do they call every kid?

Have heard teams only talk to top 6 rounds after that it’s a crap shoot of who is still available when they pick. Could be wrong but calling every kid is not feasible.

First 5 picks outside the GTHL
And I was shocked to see the Rebels kid as high as he was.

Wow.

WM would have gone top 3 if not for the commitment to the US program

Yes he did.

4 of top 10 from the G (most of any league) and 5 of top 11.
The G still reigns supreme.
