Re: RPI 2011 Recruit Thread Pt. III

I'll wait for redhead18 to post the USHR version of Delbarton's game on Wednesday since the listings seem more complete, but http://highschoolsports.nj.com/game/score/870345/ shows Drew Melanson had two assists.

Re: RPI 2011 Recruit Thread Pt. III

A recent interview with Mike Zalewski's father http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRIl3VZw4IE. It starts at 3:18. Most of the talk is about Mike's concussion and how he likes being in Vernon. BTW, the son of the other interviewee has committed to SUNY-Ithaca.

Re: RPI 2011 Recruit Thread Pt. III

On Wednesday, the Vernon Vipers lost to the Salmon Arm Silverbacks 5-4. Mike Zalewski did not dress. It's probably an error and may get changed, but the same player is listed as the #1 and #3 star. http://www.bchl.ca/leagues/hockey_bo...0264&link=bchl

Zalewski's line is now 46-12-17-29-34.

You really have to have had a good game to get 4 stars total!

This must have been a makeup for the Jan.7th game at Pope John because USHR lists Delbartons next game on Feb.15th. Theres no results for this game posted, Id just go with the above box score.

Re: RPI 2011 Recruit Thread Pt. III

Given the persistent concerns over Christopher’s lack of penalty minutes over the course of his season, I thought you guys would be pretty excited to see 4 minutes in one game. Actually, Pointstreak got it wrong. The call was 2 minutes for checking from behind and 2 minutes for roughing. The check from behind probably had to be called, but it arguably was more the case of a big kid running into a little kid along the boards. IMO, the roughing call was nonsense. Opponent tries to get in Christopher’s face, takes a swipe, nothing develops and both get a roughing call. There have been any number of times during the year where Chris was much more deserving of a penalty – this time he found a way to pick up 2 at once.

As I may have said before, Chris plays a disciplined style and always has. His penalty production is a bit lower than what I would have guessed for this point in the season, but it is not out of line with how he approaches the game. His coaches are not demanding that he go out and rough it up more. The Phantoms have other D who are quite capable of racking up penalty minutes, and the coaches seem quite content to have Chris available to keep it disciplined and be available to kill his team mates' penalties.

I do think Chris would benefit from another year in Juniors, and not simply for the purpose of developing an aggressive streak. Chris has only 39 games in Juniors under his belt. I think both his game and his body will benefit from another year of maturity before he makes the jump to D1 hockey. 2012 sounds like the right guess for his arrival in Troy, but who knows for sure?

Well, there's aggressive penalties (resulting from hard play or insert the "Who's Your Father" chant here), penalties that have to be taken (usually to bail out the team on a rush), and stupid penalties (that could be avoided with proper fundamentals). I know I would be very happy with a disciplined defenseman, but I wouldn't be happy if the player seems disciplined because he is too tentative and doesn't want to get into those situations because he doesn't wish to go to the box. However it sounds like it's aggressive yet disciplined.

Obviously I only saw one game from Chris, so I will revert to not only your judgment, but both Youngstown's and RPI's coaches as well.

On Wednesday, the USNTDP U18 team defeated Sweden 6-2 in the Five Nations Tournament. Ryan Haggerty had no points or penalties. http://www.usahockey.com//Template_U...U_04&ID=298918

You'd be surprised how easily hair like that collapses into a helmet. Just like how I could tuck all of my locks into a hat the Field House gives away and fool a bunch of people into thinking I got a haircut.
