Prelim Ranking

Here are the prelim ranks from central scouting:

Anyone else getting the "no document found" error message when trying to query for the final rankings on this site?

No college players rank among the top 25 skaters or top 5 goalies. Not surprisingly, UND's Zach Parise is the top-ranked college player. Shane Hynes is the top-ranked ECAC skater at #8 among college players. Dartmouth's Hugh Jessiman is next at #16, followed by Matt Moulson at #19, Lee Stempniak (Dartmouth) at #26, Christian Jensen (Yale) at #28, Cam Abbott at #30, Joey Zappala (Yale) at #31, and Dale Good (Clarkson) at #35. UVM's Travis Russell is the only ECAC goalie listed, at #3. A number of ECAC players (but none from Cornell) are listed as not ranked due to limited viewing.

Its also maybe worth noting our recruits on the Players to Watch list:
BCHL
Byron Bitz - B Player
Mitch Carefoot - B Player
EJHL
Mark McCutcheon - A Player

The third-ranked "college" goalie is the sieve who started Friday night for Vermont. UNH lit him up, too, IIRC.

I find it interesting that whoever compiles these reports expects to see Kevin Kliman of Brown play before January, especially since he's one of 2 back up goalies behind Yann Danis. Does this mean that Brown is considering not playing Danis for a game sometime before January?

After yesterday, he may want the day off. . . (and if Brown has a non-conference game before the break, it might be a good time to rest him).
