Shaw made Youngstown!
Sezenack's post on our recruits' last season and future prospects https://thefieldhouse.substack.com/p/rpi-recruit-season-recap .
Nice post. I agree Jackson kyrkostas is Elite and our best recruit coming next year. Ryan Shaw also elite. If the coaching staff can keep both these recruits for next year I will be suprised. Kyrkostas has hockey East written all over him.

I think that if we show improvement, we can sell players on remaining with us. Smith has taken a first step by improving our OOC schedule, Now we have to win significantly more games. That won't be easy, but on paper we do look better than last season.
We already lost Kyrkostas' teammate at KUA in 21-22, Kareem Al-Azem, of course that was to a D-III school where he would not have to spend a year or more in Juniors before starting college.
They really only need to make it 4 more months until November, and then, they can get those guys signed to NLIs
Lock em up!
I know it's naive, but I'm optimistic that there are players out there that actually take making a commitment seriously. I also hope and believe that our coaches can sell the value of an RPI education to players that actually want it. Kyrkostas and Shaw look like excellent prospects and I'm very happy that they are planning to play in Troy. I also believe RPI and the ECAC are worthy of such players and that our staff/league can develop them into future pros while our school develops their business or technical skills. Of course there will be a top tier of pro prospects (draftees at 18, potential one and done guys, national development team players, etc.) that are destined for the big boys, but potential mid-to-late round 19 and 20 year old picks and future free agent signees shouldn't be out of reach for the ECAC or RPI. Jackson has been eligible for two NHL drafts and Ryan one and I don't remember seeing either one high on the scouting lists. I'm hoping they are a good model for the future, along with players like Muzzatti, Smolinski and Hotson - very good players just on or below the NHL radar that we can develop into excellent college players and some real pro prospects (note: not ECHL players - most every regular D1 player could probably play in the ECHL - but AHL players and some to the NHL). It's my dream for returning RPI to where we should be in the college hockey hierarchy.
How many more years before this transfer portal nonsense returns to normal or is permanent?
