Hockey Factories

[MrBoDangles]

Since 1990, what high schools have put out the most D-1, or higher, Hockey players. List the programs, and players, you are familiar with...

[Haute hockeymom]

1. St. Sebastian's (Needham, MA)
- 13 players selected in the NHL Entry Draft since 1990

[my2cents]

Aside from the obvious choices like EP, Jeff, Hill, Blaine, Moorhead - I would guess Hermantown would be right up there as well.

[muckandgrind]

I don't feel like digging through all the rosters....but my bet is that Shattuck has put out more than a few D1 and NHL players since 1990.

Off the top of my head: Sidney Crosby, Kyle Okposo, Zach Parise, Jack Johnson, Drew Stafford, Johnathon Toews, Ty Conklin, Ryan Malone, and Ryan Duncan.

[jancze5]

Avon Old Farms in Connecticut is a hockey mecca
but Ann Arbor Pioneer in Ann Arbor Michigan is the home school
for the USA National Team, so I'm guessing that they actually have the most talent in the hallways.

[nikebauer05]

I think he is asking for a high school in the MSHSL because I think it's pretty obvious that Shattuck would have more than a normal high school.

[MrBoDangles]

Jefferson? They must have a pretty long list too.....

[Zamman]

AHA had a ton from 99 -09. I am trying to compile the list.

[EHSHack]

I cant compile a whole list, Lee or Karl can, but in the last few years Duluth East has had Al McLean, Max Tardy, Derek Forbort, Andy Welinski, Keegan Flahrety, and Cade Fairchild.

[Just_Another_Fan]

Cretin Derham had a few recently:

Mark Alt (10')- Minnesota
Ryan Mcdonough (07')- Wisconsin
Drew Darwitz (07') Alaska Anchorage
Chris Hickey (07') Wisconsin-Dartmouth
Ben Kinne (06') Bemidji State

I feel like there are more, but in the past five years they sent a few kids to D1 schools, McDonough was drafted by the Canadiens in 07, and Hickey is in the Wild's system.

A tradition of great hockey up in Elk River. HS or youth hockey association websites should link these alumni lists.
