Jean- Christophe Blanchard, Goalie, 6'4 is currently playing in the MAAA ranks, he's 16 years old now, i believe he has a late birthday which makes him 2006 eligible, ill check up on that.
He was been called up several times this season by the Moncton wildcats, he was their first round pick in the 2003 QMJHL entry draft. He has been compared to Roberto Luongo. He's a nominee for the Quebec midget AAA goalie of the year, winner yet to be decided. We has awarded at the all star game as the best goalie. He had 2 starts this season in the Q both wins and allowed only 2 goalies each game facing 30 shots both times. He is another one of those goalies to watch out for coming out of the Q. I can see him as a 2nd round pick in the 2006 NHL entry draft, maybe ever a first, but its too early to tell, goalies develop differently.
