RPI Recruit Thread 2018-19 (Part III)

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2018-19 (Part III)

On Sunday, Team Navy lost to Team Grey in the Boys Select 17 Tourney 11-1. :eek: Max Itagaki had no points or penalties. https://teamusa.usahockey.com/tourn...mes/5d090f3706e5993e423df46e?referrer=4718145

Itagaki’s Select 17 line is 5-0-2-2-0.

This was Navy's last game.

I will check when I return from bike riding if either recruit made and played in the All-Star game, but I suspect they did not.

That's not a good sign as he was expected to play in Lincoln next season

On the one hand, Itagaki's a mid-'02 so he's young and has time to get to the USHL. Perhaps the NAHL will be a good thing for his overall development. On the other hand, NZ has him as a 3.5 star, which is pretty much the default ranking for NAHL players with a certain D1 commit.
 
Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2018-19 (Part III)

Thanks Mom. Max must have received an invite to their Main Camp as he’s not a Draft pick of Springfield. Are any of your boys in Camp Mom?

No, Turk, my boy's aged out of juniors. I just follow this particular family advisor on Twitter since he reps a lot of FL boys whom I know. The advisor is from the Chicago area, so I suspect that's how his client Itagaki received the Springfield (IL) camp invite. Since the USHL initial protected lists (or whatever they're called) are due any day, Itagaki must not have made one of those rosters or he wouldn't be at Springfield's camp.

Ah, I should’ve put together JDM being from Chicago with the invite for Max. Thanks.

I agree that he has time to make the USHL and IMO playing regularly is more important than being in a better league. As Turk wrote, the NAHL is a good league, much improved from over a decade ago.

Any high level coach that I know, whether at the Junior or College level, will tell any kid who wants to move on in hockey that they should play at the highest level that they will get lots of ice time. Playing PP and PK on a top two line in the NAHL is much better for a player's development than playing 3rd or 4th line minutes in the USHL. Every kid develops at different rates. Just keep focused on playing time and working hard and you will keep moving up.
 
Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2018-19 (Part III)

The Chicago Pro Hockey League (Development Division) started play yesterday. As mentioned earlier, Zach Dubinsky and Max Itagaki are both playing. A matter of fact, their teams played each other. (There are only four teams, so there was a 1/3 chance. :D) Box scores have not yet been posted. They have a week to do so until the next game. :) I will keep checking.

On Wednesday, Team Constructive Renovations lost to Team MO2 Properties 11-8 in the Chicago Pro Hockey League (Development Divison). Zach Dubinsky had no points or penalties, assuming that he played. Max Itagaki had 4 goals and 3 assists. (Only 10 goals are currently listed.) https://www.chicagoprohockeyleague.com/schedule-stats/constructive-renovations-vs-mo2-properties (Historically these games have been high scoring.)

Dubinsky’s line is now 1-0-0-0-0.
Itagaki’s line is now 1-4-3-7-0.
 
Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2018-19 (Part III)

Itagaki https://www.chicagoprohockeyleague.com/schedule-stats/mo2-properties-vs-gvnmovement-week-2

I will post the summaries whenever. :eek: It will depend upon when the box scores are filled out and I am home. They will be posted.

[b]The years the men's recruits are listed as committed for are not necessarily accurate.[/b]
The dates on which some of the women are listed as committing on may be considerably after the actual dates.
I am assuming that Neutral Zone regards their Star ratings as public because they tweet them with committals.


Some additional possiblities for next season
Babich [Omaha (USHL) doubtful], Boston (NCDC), Chicago Mission 16U
Beaton Youngstown (USHL)
Brackett MN Magicians (NAHL), [Sioux Falls (USHL) doubtful]
Fawkes [Sioux Falls (USHL) Tri-City (USHL), both seem doubtful]
Itagaki [Lincoln (USHL) doubtful], Chicago Mission 18U, Springfield (NAHL)
Leibold Maryland (NAHL)
McDonald Rochester (NCDC)
Miller Fargo (USHL)
assuming others in USHL and Tier II leagues (NAHL, NCDC, and Canadian) stay there
