How can you not include Dano Jaque in any post on this topic? I agree that Youso and Lehrke are dfinitely top 5 but Jaque has been one of the most consistent players on a team that has been to the state tournament just about every year since he has been goin there (I am currently too lazy to actually check it to make sure) and is one of the best D-men in the state including AA.SiouxRecruit wrote:Id say top 2 for sure would be Youso and Lehrke...no doubt
Dano Jaque also seemed to have a few assists. He is a pure passer with the skills to finish as well. It wasnt one game, it was a full year and then some that he has been impressive.TheShow wrote:Dano Jaques gets 3 one-timer goals in one game and everyone thinks he is the best. A question is how good is he with out Jack Connolly and Bob Gutsch feeding him. They already lost to Denfeld.

Those were rocket slap shots in the state semis, kind of a big game.
Anyway that was a scrimmage that lasted i believe 22 minutes, not a big deal. In the game that actually mattered, Dano had 3 assists.
Not saying he is by far the best player in the state but is definately right up there in skill next to guys like Youso. Johnson, Stafne, and DeCenzo are all top players as well.

maybe you forgot about the goal he scored against blake.... in the state tourny nobody set him up there and also all the assists he had in the tourny. easily one of the most explosive kids is the state A or AA

Best Player
I have seen Dano play numerous times over the past few years and I would agree, he is a very nice player. He skates very well, sees the ice, and has a tremendous shot. I think where he is lacking is in the size department. Unless it has changed, he always struck me as a player who didnt like to get his nose dirty or grind it out. I think he needs to get a little stronger and a little tougher to play at the next level. If he was there already, he would be an outstanding player but he isnt. Time will tell if he is willing to work on his game after high school.
With that being said, Is he in Youso's league? no. He may be close, but he is not there yet. Youso didn't get a scholarship to play for the Gophers for no reason. The kid can flat out play. He is a great all-around player who has a bright future.

Dano is Easily the best plaer in the state, closely followed by Landon Olson and Youso

YOUSO is Easily the best "A" player in the state, followed by Landon Olson.
