sartell sabres ryan and matt nahan are showing lots of potential and are lighting it up they play very well together and up coming years they will be dominant


and for the st.cloud tech tigers #25 Blake vogel. the begginingof the year was slow for Vogel but as the season rolls on he keeps improving and really shinning!!! in his last 4 games posting 3 goals 4 assists!!! this kid is going to be a force in up coming years and is under estimated!!

The Reilly twins from AHA. Trebil says they are the two most talented players he has ever coached. Thats saying a lot considering some of the guys he's coached.

Nick Bjudstad or however you spell his name for Blaine has to be one of the most impressive freshman playing varsity. Lovick for Centennial also had a great year with from the info i got 40+ points. And for a player that should be making an appearance next year as a freshman on varisty is Rau who is playing Bantam A right now for Eden Prarie.

Yeah I guess :roll: . Watch them they're sophomores and they're good. And Trebil actually did say that.

So far, seven MN freshman/sophomores have been invited to the tryouts for the USA NTDP. Although one of them (Mac Carruth) doesn't play in MN any longer.

Nick Bjugstad
Mac Carruth
Derek Forbort
Max Gardiner
Christian Isackson
Ben Marshall
Joe Rubbelke

Could be a couple of more added after sections.

Yeah and stack them on top of each other and they might be 6' tall and weight #150 lbs. They have survived this long based on who they have played with. Both Mattson's (Danny and Nick) did way more for them then they did for Nick or Danny. They score when they are on the PP other then that they don't add very much during even strength situations. Lets see what they do in the future rather then crown them Mr Hockey winners already. Daddy's money does a lot for them.

haha

That is correct. All the players they have invited (to this point) are 1992s.

Wow, good thing you can read. At least Daddy's money bought me literacy. If you could read, you would have seen that I didn't crown them Mr. Hockey, in fact, all I said is that they were good.

Let me ask you this, how many state championships has the team that you coach won in the last 6 years. Trebil has won two. How many NHLers have you coached in the past? Trebil has coached a few through the Jefferson Bantam program, and Erik Johnson at AHA. Lets see, I think Greg Trebil is a little better judge of hockey players than you, Mr. Pucknutz.

Finally, don't play the small card. They will get bigger. Jay Barriball is how big? How big is Martin St. Louis? How big is Brian Gionta? Ryan Duncan? The Reilly boys are very quick, and will only get better. Did I say they were God? No. But they definitely aren't bad.

Your right, this year he has been off. I was referring more to Jay's high school years at AHA.

you stated that Trebil says "they are the best he has ever coached." knowing who he has coached that would put them right up there with Mr Hockey candidates that you claim he has coached in the past. And now you are comparing them to the select few professional players that are small in stature. All I am saying is lets see if they can LEAD a TEAM instead of riding the coattails of some really good players.

Cory mack is a bantam this year and he is a very physical and fast player who i think will make a big impact on the east grand forks line up next year

I never compared them to any of those players, I quoted Trebil. If Trebil thinks they are the most talented kids he has coached, I'll take his word for it.

Good job at completely misinterpreting the small part. I was not comparing their skill level to pro players, that would be completely and utterly ridiculous considering we are talking about two sophomores in high school. Obviously they are not pro. I was comparing their size, making the point that if there are small players dominating in the NHL, it is possible for small players to be good in high school.

But this is a breakthrough. Now that you have the reading thing down, it's time to work on comprehension...

So which one are you? Connor, Ryan or Mike? I don't see one small player Dominating the NHL maybe contributing and surviving but definatly not dominating. Like i stated lets see how they do on thier own in the future at AHA.

Martin St. Louis isn't dominating??? 7th in the NHL in points isn't dominating??? WOW!!

Marc Savard is 15th in total points and leads the NHL in assists...not bad for another small guy.

Those are some pretty nice "contributions".

Tim Kuzniar & Tyler Goss from Lakeville North, they get plenty of playing time and big contributors to the team. Their points don't show how their playing but they are very affective. Lake conference is a tough league for 10th graders to play in.

#8, #5 & #25 for Bloomington Jefferson are very good. I know one of them is Herbert, not sure the names of the others.

All these names & #'s listed are very good sophomores.
