Does anyone know what happened to these two players. They were two of the best high school players I've ever seen... I believe they both went the major junior route and I haven't heard their names since.

Major Junior A didn't work out great for Pat, one year in the ECHL and out, wish he would have took a college offer, such a great talent

Patrick is back in Duluth. Reference made to him by local blogger Howie Hanson in this article:

I saw him listed in the East roster sheet as an assistant, but a different source claims this isn't the case, so I don't know for sure.

Downing's career ended before it really took off. Off ice troubles and injury led to that. Last I heard of him, he was back in GR and was to be an assistant with the U19 Minnesota Crunch. As I haven't really followed that team, not sure if he assisted Marinucci or not. As for Finnegan, no clue.
