Kent Johnson has been on fire to start this year in the BCHL, he is currently tied for the league lead in scoring and looks very much like one to watch for next year’s draft. Will be playing his draft season, with lots of eyes on him, at Michigan.
Your typical silky offensive forward, he runs the PP well, looks like more of a passing threat at this point, but there’s some goal scoring ability in him too. Good frame at 6’1, still needs to put on about 30 pounds, but I don’t foresee size being an issue for him.
I didn’t pay attention to Trail last year, but I’ll be sure to catch their games when I get the chance. If anyone else has seen him, love to hear your thoughts.

Looks like a very interesting player, will be following him to see how he develops.
It's also very interesting to see Pentiction blowing up the league with a 10-10-0-0 start with Flyers first rounder Jay O'Brien and other descendants of former NHLers on that roster.

Yes he is a late Oct. birthdate, eligible for ‘21.
Re-reading my post, I can see how I may have misled the reader in saying next year’s draft - thanks for clearing that up
Johnson is now up to 36 points in 19 games. He just turned 17 two weeks ago and is on pace to eclipse 100 points in his D -1 season. Impressive to say the least.

My first thought was a Simpsons character but that also works.
BTW,much earlier senior versions of the Smoke Eaters won world ice hockey championships as independent clubs who represented Canada in 1939 and 1961.
They have a really cool mural on the side of their arena depicting some of that history.
The Smole Eaters name comes from the fact that Trail is home to a large lead smelter with a couple of giant smoke stacks which loom over the town.The smokes not bad these days but was pretty significant back in the day.My grandparents lived there in the 40’s but had to leave due to respiratory problems.
On pace to crush Newhook’s draft -1 production, albeit he’s old for his draft class and this is his sophomore BCHL season whereas Newhook’s was his rookie BCHL season. Pretty similar pace to Newhook’s season last year though. Elite production any way you slice it.

Listed at #10 in Button’s early look at the 2021 draft. Leading the league in goals and assists. 8 points up on his teammate Colella, (the league’s second highest scorer) - and 13 points up on Flyers’ first rounder Jay O’Brien (3rd-leading scorer)
Pretty damn impressive pace. Can’t believe some of the things this guy does with the puck - he has such amazing hands.

BCHL is known to be offense-friendly but he's putting up silly numbers

Yeah he has been outstanding this season. Just magical with the puck on his stick. It will be very interesting to see how his game translates to the next level at Michigan next season.

They need him too, he'll get a lot of ice time. Assuming Beecher doesn't sign and York can stay healthy they're going to be like Wisconsin is this year, next year. Though this kid could be better than Holloway
