These are invites to tryouts which can not be held until after the Mn Hockey state tournaments, usually 40 skayers plus goaliesand H.S players who qualify are invited. The cut is then made to 18 skaters and 2 goalies plus 1 alt at f,d,g. Each district has a team from 240 the cut is 102 plus goalies. My numbers are fairly close. The next cut is to 18 skaters,2 goalies plus 2 alt at each pos.

In The Paint, the few times i've heard the coach talk about that team he always metions that there are no superstars and that the team is not afraid of hard work which some would agree is more valuable. These players you mentioned are good from what i've seen but don't get ahead of yourself, i'd be suprised if half made the select 15's. Good luck on your northern run.

The HS coach nominates his players and they would go to the tryouts of the youth hockey district that the parents live in.

Basically if you are a 92 age player and aren't playing HS level it's
"Thanks for your money, good luck next year."

And don't forget the Shattuck kids that get in, but they won't look at the kids from the Fire AAA that live in MN. Hippocrits.

This is very political at this age group. I think they take the kids with HS experiance just because it makes thier job easier. One or two bantams might make thier way through. I don't think some put much effort in looking for the best talent. If you do get nominated...go, have fun, make some new friends and give it your best effort. Don't go and take the experiance for granted, give your best effort and don't think your hockey career is over if you don't make the cut. The thing I hate about it is if you have a late birthday you are S.O.L. 90% of the kids that get picked are early year birthdays.

Obviously this is primarily true if you're talking about kids playing HS at big programs. Small schools always pull less gifted kids up early. The sad thing is, while a younger kid on varsity provides a nice honor to brag about, sitting on the bench for 25 games vs playing every 2nd or 3rd shift for 50-60-70 games as a high-end Bantam A doesn't do the player a lot of good.

District 16 has NOT selected kids or notified yet.
That will probably happen in the next two weeks sometime.
The local bantam coach may decide to sit on his players announcements to keep it from upsetting teh team.
Obviously, there are those kids everyone is pretty sure about.
