It will be hard to keep him from toothpaste if he goes the college route.

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread
I have been wondering though, if RPI has any interest in Andrew Ming who plays on the same midget team as Tanner Spink. His brother Eric stated in an article a couple years ago that it was his dream to play hockey at RPI someday, of course a couple months later he goes and signs with Kitchener, so who knows.
Cant argue with that one. Especially since theres like 2-3 other current teammates of the Spinks up in Cornwall that are headed to Colgate next season.

I wonder if that really was Eric's dream, or if he was just using it as leverage for Kitchener.

That said, if his talent is as good or greater than his brothers, he may well be getting pursued by larger HE or MW programs.
The thought certainly occurred to me. There is always the possiblity (I'll let y'all speculate...how remote)that as the younger brother, he'll want to step out of his older brothers' shadow and blaze his own path. Especially when his immediate future has him following the twins to Cornwall. As he is the captain of his AAA team, he doesn't seem to lack in confidence.

Well Zalewski did that and so have others, but most seem to go to the same place.

It certainly makes it easier on the parents-they can see all their kids in the same place at the same time. So who could blame them? I suspect a similar situation is developing at Delbarton here in NJ with the Agostinos. We have seen someone from Yale there often.

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread
Speaking of Zalewski, I was looking at his stats so far this season in the BCHL and comparing them to other RPI recruits that came out of that league. As of now with 46 games played, he has 59 points, Kirk MacDonald who played 49 games in his last season in the BCHL had 50 points. I think its a pretty good comparison as both guys are right around 6'2"-6'3" and 200lbs, so Id be really happy if MZ turns out to be the same kind of point producer that KM was at RPI. IMO, I believe he has the potential, if used right, to be one of the biggest impact freshmen weve seen at RPI in many years.
Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread
agreed he looks like big potential. Kirk only had 6 points his freshman year and then blossomed in his soph year. Hopefully this years frosh will do the same next year. Impressed with Mcgowan. He went in the corners with Collins of the little red and held his own.

Totally agree Red. His brother Steve was an outstanding two way player at CCT...Mike has a bit more size and all of the finishing skills. I believe he'll follow in his older brother's footsteps...(108 ECAC career pts...)

How about seeing a Biega in cherry and white??
FWIW, heres a few other names listed that have caught my eye in the past:

Darcy Murphy-Wellington(OJHL)
Alex Iaffalo-Fargo(USHL)
John Stevens-Salisbury(Prep)
Woody Hudson-Indiana(USHL)

Looks like Kasdorf has some new competition between the pipes in Des Moines. The Bucs traded away G-Christian Frey to Tri-City for goaltender and MTU recruit Pheonix Copley. It will be interesting to see if this has any effect on the amount of playing time JK is getting.

I suspect that he will get less playing time in the short term, but in the long term it depends how well Copley performs.

Re: RPI 2011 - 12 Recruit Thread
We were planning to see this game but we stayed locally instead. Bergen Catholic is another of those teams that really gives Delbarton no competition. I will wait and see if they play Don Bosco Prep or Notre Dame Prep-those are games that would be more of a test and I would love to see how they do.

The only team in NJ that would give them trouble is the Devils, and I am not sure about them.

17. Woody Hudson, F, ’92 (Indiana-USHL) 6-3/225—Recently decommitted from RIT. The former Milton Academy forward, now playing in Indiana, is a physical specimen who is extremely difficult to play against. Will make for a very effective third line player in college.
