Are there any Sophmore forwards that should be watched closely for the next few years?

Well, you might look at the thread entitled: Sophomore scoring leaders for a starter.

Justin Kloos leads his team in scoring in a pretty tough conference.

Not sure it is all about points, topic is prospects, i see Morin from Breck comitted to CC, he has 21 points this year. Im sure there are many seniors with more points but not as highly thought of as a prospect.

Looks like he will be a good prospect.

I agree, wasnt talking about Kloos in particular, he is a great player, just referring to the fact it is not all about points.

Morin from Breck is a senior. Here is a list of 1994 kids that went to the USA hockey advanced festival in New York last summer.

Goalies
Brock Kautz, Rochester Century
Anders Franke, Elk River

Defense
Lance Carney, White Bear
Jonah Johnson, Hill Murray
Kyle Olson, Wayzata
Brady Skjei, Lakeville North
Matt Pilot, South St. Paul
Andrew Herlofsky, Hill Murray
Jake Peterson, St. Cloud Tech

Forwards
Andy Faust, Hill Murray
Jake Horton, Tartan
Zach Lavalle, Hill Murray
Jordan Jancze, Shattuck
Grant Besse, BSM
Gage Torrell, Monticello

TJ Roo, Totino Grace
Eric Brenk, Moorehead
Ben Newman, Little Falls

Some 94 kids that were hurt or just missed going

Jake Montgomery, Shattuck
Jake Horton, MSM
Kyle Osterberg, Lakeville South

Some of the late year 93 birthyear kids that are very good,

Austin Young, S ST. Paul
Christian Horn, BSM
Justin Kloos, Lakeville South
Michael Zajac, Eagan

I may have missed some players worthy of being on this list and I do apologize for that.

Well aware Morin is a senior, was just pointing out that points arent everything, Did Andy Faust go to USA Festival?

Have you seen Steman play? Just curious about him, as the rest of these guys are playing (and most starring) for their respective varsity programs.

I have seen all of the Sophomores on my top 10 list play this year. Steman transfered to Maple Grove and can only play JV this year. I have seen Maple Grove play 6 times this year and usually catch the end of the JV games, I believe he would be Maple Grove's best player on Varsity, better then Horton. Steman is the most complete of Maple Grove's very talented 10th grade class including: Steman, Paulson, Bell, Freburg, Wolden, Aspinwall, Koop, Mason, and Shafer.

A few other very good Sophomores worth mentioning.

Halverson Wayzata
Opperman Breck
Torrel Monticello
Iverson Breck
Walker Edina

C.J. FRANKLIN, LUCAS KOHLS BOTH FROM FOREST LAKE.

Ben Walker - Edina - getting a lot of playing time and doing well
Kyle Krueger - Prior Lake - Lots of ice and the team appears to be playing better
Mike Reilly - AHA - appears to be playing better as of late.

Mitch Morissette and RJ Majkosak for WBL are mentionables. Remarkable step up when others are suspended. They will be something to watch...quite frankly have been for the last couple of years.....

Tyler Brodersen LW, ST. Louis Park

Leading scorer for them as a 10th grader. Great speed

Not to put the kid down at all, I am sure he's a quality player, but who is he beating out for the points lead at SLP? Just saying that doesn't convince me he's a top sophomore in the state.

Nobody but hey when you don't have that much help around you sometimes points are hard to come by. Very good player stands out on his team and gets alot of ice.

Hayden Timm of Warroad, he isn't a household name, but has shown charisma and could be a potential WCHA player.
