Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2011-12 Part II

Only waiting on Fulton, Hampton, and Bubela. Time to spend more hours on the World Wide Waste-of-time seeing if they're in the directory.

It wouldn't surprise me if Bourbonnais also shows up, like Bradley, Miller, and Zalewski did last year. He has finished HS and is probably the emergency replacement for Bubela if the NCAA finds a problem.

Edit: Also waiting on Middlebrook. :)

I would have mentioned that on the women's thread. :p:D

Saw this tweet from Melanson yesterday:



Looks like his time at Delbarton could be over...
Click to expand...

Was that an open tryout or the futures draft? It's possible that he could stay at Delbarton and then go to the USHL and come to RPI in 2014 (but since he's listed as 2013/14, it wouldn't surprise me if your prediction holds true). I believe we're looking for a fairly short class in 2013 since the 2009-10 freshman group was small to begin with (not to mention we've already seen two of its members leave), but it'd certainly be nice to bring in some reloads that are up to a heightened level of play once Laliberté, McGowan, and company are ready to graduate.

FWIW, although this group was small and indeed lost Pirri and D'Amigo, it gained Bailen and Burgdoerfer after the first year.

Edit: Looking at several posts at http://twitter.com/#!/Drewfro27 it does appear that he is going to the USHL. I am a bit surprised.

Perhaps the 13/14 prediction is still accurate. If he were to go to Delbarton again, we'd likely change his expected arrival to 14.

IMO he is more likely to arrive at RPI next season if he plays a year in the USHL than staying in NJ, but I think he could arrive in either year playing for either team.

Absolutely-staying at Delbarton would do little for him. Next year they will have as little competition as they have had the past few years. From what we saw this past year-it is time to move up somewhere. It will be interesting to see how he progresses.

Lincoln concluded it's tryout camp over the weekend. Jake Wood played for Team Yellow & by the writer's report was a player that stood out after each game... http://www.lincolnstarsblog.com/

I'm that writer.

Jake had an outstanding camp. In my opinion, he was one of the top three non-veteran forwards in the entire camp (110+ players). A bit on the small size, but he plays like he's much bigger. Loves to throw his body around. Very skilled with the puck. Good hands, and great wheels. He tweeted tonight that he'll be in Lincoln next season. Looking forward to that.
