U15 Prep

HIs season so far in numbers : 0+2, 2+0, 0+1, 1+0, 3+2, 1+2

7 goals, 7 assists for 6 games


His next game is today vs Delta Hockey Academy (away game)

 

[Artorius Horus T]

Added a 3+1 game to his stat line.

 

[Deen]

Future Flame and Iggy will be head coach.

 

[Belloco]

He is overtaken in points by a teammate younger than him. At the same age his brother was playing in U18. His 2023 WHL draft rank should be much lower. An NHL career will be very complicated for him.

At the same age, Tij was playing U14 hockey in the US I believe, he diddn’t play U18 until after he was drafted into the WHL, his 15 year old season whereas Joe is in his 14 year old season - Joe is on the right track and could definitely be a first round talent for the WHL bantam draft.

Well seen. By recent draft standards, Joe Iginla will be late 1st round WHL/early 2nd.

Maybe Cage Smith is a better offensive player than him?

A lot to unpack here. First off you understand that the WHL draft they select players at 15 years of age right? One year earlier than both the OHL and QMJHL.

This years WHL draft, WHL teams will be selecting from the pool of 2008 born kids eligible - Most of these 2008’s are eligible for the 2026 NHL draft, the players born on September 15th and beyond are eligible for the 2027 NHL draft (Cage Smith, Harshaan Kaila are examples of this)

Joe Iginla is an August 2008 born player, meaning he is NHL draft eligible for the 2026 NHL draft - and is eligible for the upcoming WHL draft - so his peers are Lemire, the Rucks and Eli Barrett - not the 2009 born skaters of Ei McKamey, or Landon Dupont - who are NHL draft eligible in 2027 - and WHL Draft eligible next year, in 2024.

late 2008 born and early 2009 born, what you talking about? same draft year

 

[GermanSpitfire]

late 2008 born and early 2009 born, what you talking about? same draft year

1. Liam Ruck - 8 months older* - 2025 draft eligible
2. Eli Barrett - 6 months older - 2025 draft eligible
3. Markus Ruck - 8 months older - 2025 draft eligible
5. Mathis Preston - 3 months older - 2025 draft eligible
6. Kayden Lemire - 9 months older - 2025 draft eligible

8. Cruz Pavao - 2 months older - 2025 draft eligible
9. Cage Smith - 2 months younger - 2026 draft eligible
10. Maddox Malmqvist - 3 months - 2025 draft eligible

Your list above:

All these kids, except Cage Smith are 2026 NHL draft eligibles. not 2025 as you wrote.

Joe Iginla should be apart of THIS “list”. Not the other one in which most of those kids are 2027 NHL draft eligibles, not 2026 like you stated.

In short - your information about these players is wrong.

was promoted to the U16 team; 1 goal and a primary apple in his debut.

I know the difference between teams is sometimes huge, at this stage, level
but when you are just 6 goals short of 2.00 goals per game...
its still very impressive if you ask me..

21 assists
55 points
