Bellows cut from WJC team too. Hope Keller sticks. They've had an underage kid each of the past two seasons (Eichel, Matthews). Will they make it a third. Would really be surprised if Krys makes it.

....Regarding Roberto, my guess is that is an NCAA eligibility issue regarding something very foolish that he did in the offseason.

The squad is down to 24 with two cuts, one F and one D, to be made. So among McAvoy, Fortunato and Krys, two will be on the final roster. Wilson has noted how impressed he is with Keller and it would be no surprise if he makes it, too.

With three full days of camp down, head coach Ron Wilson has been impressed with some of the younger talent on display. Forward Clayton Keller, one of the aforementioned future Terriers, is one player who has stood out.

"The first two days, I didn't have him on a line you'd say would really give him a chance, and he was the best player on the ice on the first day," Wilson said. "I’ve been trying to break him in and play him with some other lines."

I hope people realize this is the 96's year. These guys are 98's
Find it hard to believe there are not better 96 players out there, Conor Garland for one. Garland led CHL last year in scoring, this year he had 82 points, next closest is around 58. USA hockey is to obsessed with natl Dev team. You tell me these 98 F's are better than Garlsnd? Don't make me laugh.
We are not going to win if the team is built around 97's and acting like 98's should be there. On that note,
Krys will make team over Fortunato

Here are 2 cautionary tales for someone like Greer:

Yasin Cisse
Wesley Myron

Last I checked both are out of hockey after departing BU mid-season in 2012-13.

Perhaps, but I think Greer is better than each of them. Still, 12 pts in 55 games? No reason to drop to the floor in tears over his departure.

Agreed Greer is better than Cisse and Myron. I wonder if this was a rash decision or something that had been brewing all season.

Greer was the youngest Sophomore forward in D-1. IIRC he was supposed to come this year but was accelerated. Makes you wonder about the risks a program takes on 17/18 year-olds with vast potential but are projects versus recruiting the older, more mature and ready player that the B1G legislation wants to limit.

AJ Greer

Who else makes the list?

Sebastian Laplante. Goalie from Ontario who was at BU for a few weeks in Sept. 2001. Claimed he was homesick and promptly signed with the Calgary Hitmen. :rolleyes:

It seemed that both of those two had serious attitude issues. I remember both leaving under the pretense that they felt they deserved to be first line players, which was absolutely laughable based on their performance.

Come on hoky, give a hint as to which program!
