Was Lettieri deserving making the team this year? Didn't make it last year which really has no bearing. If, he improved that much congrats to him, but makes you wonder if the Grandpa had any influence on the outcome since he was not rostered last year and was cut in early stages

Lettieri led Minnetonka in scoring for most of the year. He's a very good player, and it shouldn't be a surprise at all that he made it.

Didn't see him play this past year. Congrats to Lettieri for working that much harder to make the team this year. Good example for all players to keep your head up if you don't make it. Work harder and the results will show. Good Luck

Stupid part of this thread and a non-conspiracy.

A sophomore, playing in the Lake, leading his squad (a top ten team by the way). This alone made him a "for sure" to make this team. Louie Nanne from Edina made the 17s and earned that spot too. Nice to say Grandpa Lou helped 'stuff the ballots' for the grandkids, but their efforts speak for themselves and they earned their way onto these teams. Congrats to both.

Did Hunter Miska have an "automatic" because he is going to Ann Arbor?

I'm pretty sure that is the case. In the USNTDP tryout he went up against a NHL Players kid, A NHL gm's relative and a goalie phenom from Michigan that attends local USNTP goalie camps. Miska shined in comparison and has always been a huge underdog.
It's pretty interesting when you google the other three goalies and compare how different their paths have been.
They should of made an exeption and taken three goalies from Minnesota in this case with Miska already a lock and with how a couple goalies performed.

I also think that would have been a great idea. I don't think Miska was one of the top two over the weekend, but overall deserves it. I also think that Dugas or Gerdes should have gotten a chance.

Not only is Nanne a great multisport athlete, he has great character too. Congratulations to him.

Who are the other three goalies you're talking about?
