This will be the last look at the top 97's before the draft for the Q teams. Is anyone going that can give us reports?

I will be there and provide feedback.
Top PEI players would be : R. Steele, J. Arsenault, J. Larter, L. Toole. IMO in that order
Yes I agree other than that not much else from PEI. Other Atlantic provinces have some good talent as well
Guys to watch from NB:
Defence: Deschense, Paul, Myers, Thompson
Fowards: Leblanc, Bower, Tompkins, Ward, Belec
Goalies: This could be the mystery area for team NB, Meadows has played HS all year and Goguen has been in the US... hard to say on that one, Meadows was awesome when he was in Bantam Provincials a year ago when it was in Moncton, he didn't come with the Canadiens to the jamboree last fall.
Is Alexandre Jacob not on that list due to injuries? Thanks
Went up to Fredericton last night to watch the exhibition game, for NB they need to really pick it up. The NB defense were not good at all as a group, and many of the forwards were off. I've seen most of these kids play much better than they did, not sure what is going on with them. Deschense left the ice in the first, came back to start the second, played a shift, left again and did not return.
The bright spots were Bowers and Tompkins, the best two forwards on the night for NB. Pickard was top guy for NS, they were missing some guys from the roster, anyone know why?

Team Newfoundland had a very strong first game with a 5-3 win over Nova Scotia.
Nathan Noel had an exceptional goal and was by far the best player on the ice. Adam Caines and Jordan King an Curtis Scales were 3 other fowards who played well.
Adam Holwell and Iain Gamba were a great D pair for NFLD. Holwell is a great defensive player and Gamba is great defensively and both use their size to their advantage. Riley Baggs also played well.
Colby Tower had a solid game for NS along with Cambell Pickard. The NS defense gave up too many odd man rushes to NFLD who capitalized.
Can't wait to both teams play again
Quebec White just beat NB. Very impressive talent in the first two games.
