He is 14 or 15 yrs old, you don't need any fingers to count how many of that age recruit has ended up in Orono

Your right...whole lot of people like to DREAM....

@JeffCoxSports: '99 Neil Shea has de-committed from Maine. Lawrence Academy F has good hockey IQ, is good passer. Brother of Maine freshman Pat.

Has committed to Northeastern.

HS for athletes is completely different and he all needs to get into Maine is be able to get through the clearinghouse. He can take summer classes and online classes in order to get the necessary credits to graduate in three years. Whether he is good enough to play college hockey starting in 2019 is what will determine whether he is at Maine then or not.

The more common route for kids down here is to transfer to a Prep School and actually play five years to get more seasoned. Or the CT Wolves etc.

That is who the USA plays today...as far as Tralmarks have not heard.

I thought he looked good as the first period went on. He didn't look like one of the faster players but its obviously a very elite competition. He's got good size and hands.

He looks slower than US players but he wasn't off by much. Who was the last world jr player at umaine? Greg moore?

Re: UMAINE Recruits Part 2: 2016/2017 and what follows

I thought he was tentative, especially in the first period...he had a nice pass at the end of the 3rd period that his teammate was stopped by Parsons the USA goaltender. He has size from the look of it. Hard to tell what he is as a total player just seeing bits of him during one game.
