I think we should already produce regular top 10 guys in every year. I guess we are going in that direction. First round is going to be boring for us this year.
It's always disappointing when we have a down year, but I'm not worried at all, the past number of years and the upcoming years are all very promising. Ever since 2015 i think USAH has kind of hit another gear. 2015 and 2016 were great drafts for us, both high end and depth wise. 2017 was a bit of a dud (although depth wise it's turning out better), but 2018 was better and then 2019 was fantastic. And now while 2020 looks to be another meh/ dud draft, after that 21, 22 and 23 drafts all have a lot of promise. Now that can all change, but it seems for every dud draft we have 2 or 3 good to great drafts.I think we should already produce regular top 10 guys in every year.

Brendan Brisson, son of famous agent Pat Brisson (agent of Crosby, Kopitar, and others) will likely go first round after a great USHL season alongside Sean Farrell with the Chicago Steel
2021 looks very nice. It always does a year out to some extent but there is a lot of promiseHere’s a prediction. Our 2021 draft class will rival our 2019 draft class. 2019 might end up with better top-end talent, but there are a number of top 10 candidates and I think 2021 looks like possibly our deepest draft ever.
I know a lot are already looking ahead to 2022 because of some of the top names from the NTDP, but I think our 2021 class is going to be extremely good without having the same type of hype that 2019 or 2022 have due to the top names from those NTDP age groups.
I would be surprised. It's a lot more likely that they said something like "hey, you aren't tracking to come play here when you would want to", or even that his advisor saw the writing on the wall. Most schools will let a guy take some time in juniors before pulling itIs it not possible that Penn State pulled their scholarship offer? That could be another big reason to move on for better chances.
Yep. hope he does well up there. Wonder if NTDP will replace him or what
Canada is typically a harder team to make than the US, but you never knowHe is a dual citizen (Colby Saganiuk) if that makes any difference.
Will Smith, Minnetian, Tanner Adams, Ryan FineI am bored during lockdown so who are the 05s i should check out?
haven't watched many of the 05s yet but that shattuck bantam team always has some players, imagine they're worth some time. you could also look at the top scorers from the mn bantam elite league. one of warroad HS's top scorers was an 05 who played thereWhat about Shattuck St. Mary's duo Gracyn Sawchyn and William Whitelaw?

Here's 4 pages of '05 names to feast on. I'd say the list is pretty good, but possibly missing some names. I think they explain they left some names off D because they were too close. Don't know who put it together, so take it for what it's worth.
You're entitled to your opinion, much like the person who formed this list, but what's your relationship to the '05 age group?That top 15 list is terrible and after looking through this guys instagram page somebody really needs to shut him down. I don't know who he is but some of the kids he has listed have absolutely no place being listed as legit prospects. Please dont link that guy here.

You are correct in that they are young and a lot will change over the next two years, but I disagree that this list is "terrible". It may have flaws, but it's a pretty good list if you've been around the players for a long time. I'd say there's some up and comers that are missing, but the point of the list was a prediction for the USA Selects 15s camp (which is more than just east coast kids), not a straight up who is best list. I'd say the goalies are spot on.I have a very good view of the landscape in the EHF which is the league a lot of the players in his list are playing in. I checked his instagram page and he is even ranking 06’s and that list is even worse. I am guessing he makes a lot of stuff up and is taking money from parents to list their kids.
These are still young boys who are not playing midget or highschool yet so I would rather not discuss them but this guys lists are absurd and thats why I ask you dont post him here in what is supposed to be a thread about legit USA prospects.
