They have 4 seniors leaving and this guy can score. They had problems balancing scoring lines last year so having Sullivan go 2nd or 3rd line will help that out for sure. He was the only Bantam skater to make Select 16's and should help out a lot just as a sophomore next year. You'll hear a lot about the Sullivan's from EP in the near future, when John's a senior they will have three Sullivan boys on varsity.

Your high on ep, are you an ep parent or a sullivan parent at that?

But yes i hear you that he is a great player with good size and a great shot but i think it is going to be tough for any upcoming freshman to crack the lineup next year, and with some jv kids probably moving up to varsity, it will be very difficult

Not a Sullivan but I know their family, dad played for Jefferson and then Providence, has two kids and a nephew that are outstanding hockey players, John is the oldest.

Does anyone have the lists for District 2 select 15's and/or section 4 select 16's

Hopefully that makes sense and thanks.

Section 4 16s tryouts start on the 6th of april should have a very solid group I believe 8 kids were on the 15 national team.

EP is losing 2 forward seniors from last year that pulled their weight. They get one additional injured forward back so they lose on forward. I see this kid 4th line at best if he can beat out a couple of juniors from last years swingline.

Fred is right, they will have 8 returning forwards, plus 2 from the 4th line and 4 returning d plus 2 that skated with the varsity all year. So out of the 18 skaters for varsity they will have 16 coming back. That leaves only 2 spots on swingline open, and they will have little if any impact on the season. I am not sure Sullivan is even the best of the sophomore group, Berg had something like 57 points in 20 some games before he got hurt.

The Berg kid might make a difference at the high school level, but is a typical small forward with a lot of skill. The high school level of play is totally different in that scoring goals as a sophomore or even junior level is very difficult. Unless you have a presents like a Kyle Rau being a flat out scorer, it is tough to score goals as a sophomore or junior.
