I'm going to keep my eyes on Ratchuk. Hopefully he can pan out better than his brother did, who ended up being a 1st round bust. Interesting to see another highly touted California born (Rakhshani) player. California IMO will be a big time producer of American born talent in the near future.

Michigan is recruiting Rakhshani and Summers already, so they're probably pretty decent. And that's all I know.

Rakishani is an amazing talent... a player that could've made a major impact in the WHL is he wanted to.

Billy Sweatt is an amazing talent as well. I believe he is playing on Team Illinois this year (not 100% certain). Both players are oozing with talent though.

BTW... where did you hear Michigan is recruiting Rakishani (and Summers for that matter)?

mostly a football/bball thing going on but they've expanded their hockey coverage some. There's a guy on the message board who seems pretty well connected and he mentioned it. Rakishani's team was in town, at Yost, a few weeks ago to play Honeybaked.
