Might be unclear on who is leaving and coming - lots of teams losing guys.

Cretin seems to be losing Chorlton and Max Anderson. Not a top5 team if that is the case.
Hill is #1, absolutely loaded, unless they lose kids as well.
Seems more kids are leaving this year more than other years. The hockey 'advisors' dreams coming true. You'll never succeed in life hockey without leaving your entire lives behind at 16/17 years old and play against 18-20 year Olds as a 4th liner 8 minutes/game.

Totally a "not a dink" take. Clearly a well thought out opinion.

More HS kids leaving than in past years. 2nd year USHL kids going to the WHL. Seems weird that colleges want 20 year old freshmen but kids are in a hurry to leave high school more than ever.

HM has lost Juniors Caden Zasada (21 goals as a Soph.) to Spokane WHL and Carson Scott (6-3, 200 lb D-man) to the NTDP.

I just read today (can't find the link) that the WHL is starting to offer kids from Minnesota the ability to do the "before and after" like the USHL and NAHL.

More wonderful words won't be spoken this pre-season.
