Re: NTDP tryout invitations
What a monster MN class. Bob needs to get some of these uncommitted guys with Fleming being the top prize.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Interesting, or perhaps just random, that all are forwards.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Chesley is a defenseman

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
I wonder if this is the first time a kid from the North Pole has received an invite? Love it.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
I've been thinking the same thing, especially when being told almost all of these players are locks to be there next year. Some, yes. All or almost all? I just don't see it.
Be kind. Rewind.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
If half go I’d be shocked. It’s a grind and I’m not sure the edge it was 5-10 years ago.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
How is it that Christian Manz, goaltender at SSM from Spring Lake Park didn't get an invite. The kid is a stud. I call BS.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
They invited six others.
I don’t believe Manz went to National Camp last summer. Would suspect all of the six did, or at least five.
Be kind. Rewind.

I think 4 of the 6 went to natty's and all the invitees are 6'0"+O-townClown wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 11:00 amThey invited six others.

I'm not a person that thinks you need to be 6'3" or taller to be successful in the net, but it is a factor they no doubt consider. Manz is a very good goalie, he'll be just fine without this opportunity.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Manz may top out at 6'0" or 6'1" but there are very few goalies in his age group that I would take over him...watched him play at MN Made for years and on '04 Machine teams where sometimes he was the only reason they were in games...but you're right, he will be just fine in the long run.InThePipes wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 11:20 amI think 4 of the 6 went to natty's and all the invitees are 6'0"+O-townClown wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 11:00 amThey invited six others.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Erickson is at HM, so that wouldn’t seem to be a likely destination.Sioux Lookout wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 5:02 pm Christian Manz is listed as 5'10" on the SSM roster. I don't believe he will grow another full inch. He is as tall as his father right now, two bookends.
The other goalie on SSM 16's is 6'3", but a Canadian. I believe CM record was 16-4, the Canadian was 19-1 the last I saw.
I would bet that CM will be playing MSHSL hockey in 20-21, maybe H-M??? Time will tell.
The internal competition at SSM may be wearing thin on this player and family.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
He only has to be better than Erickson, right? If he's lauded as NTDP material then I'd take my chances with than one.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Exactly. I thought him and Sebek were the only Minnesotans but I guess there was a third.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Talk in Edina was if Clark is invited he will be gone.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Kids aren't necessarily going to be the same height as their father / parents. He very well could still grow depending on what height his immediate relatives are. I'm only 5'10" and my 6th grader is almost as tall as me and is projected to top out at 6'2" or 6'3" based on being in the 95th percentile...but I'm the runt of my litter and everyone else in my family is tall. I hope he gets close, being short kinda sucks.Sioux Lookout wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 5:02 pm Christian Manz is listed as 5'10" on the SSM roster. I don't believe he will grow another full inch.

Out of curiousity, how would Manz be able to open enroll back to MSHSL? Would he have to sit out a year like Blake? If his parents move out of their current ISD to another is he free to transfer to any HS he pleases?
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Not any HS, but he could enroll at either the public school for the new area in which the family moves, or any private school. Absent a move, the player is barred from varsity competition for a year.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Nah...it's any high school (public or private) if there is a family move. Not limited to the "new area". Each situation is so unique, folks need to stop making eligibility determinations on these forums.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Sorry, you’re right. I didn’t think about open enrollment to other public schools.arcticpurple wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 1:06 amNah...it's any high school (public or private) if there is a family move.

Re: NTDP tryout invitations
No, he's wrong again. It has to be the Public School in the District they moved to, or any Private. You cannot move from District A to District B and then open-enroll at District C and be eligible there. You would have to play JV for a year.Stang5280 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 12:38 pmSorry, you’re right.

Arctic, you can find the transfer rules here:
https://legacy.mshsl.org/mshsl/Publicat ... ?year=2016
They start on Page 21. You may want to actually read them before posting the rules.
Re: NTDP tryout invitations
Is this still scheduled to occur (it’s usually this weekend)?
