4th on his team in points, 1st in goals. "Bramwell has had a busy season, playing at the Eastern Canada Cup back in November and earning a spot on Canada East's training camp roster for the World Junior A Challenge."

Bramwell was joined by Cornell commits Ben and Zach Tupker and Nate McDonald (Ethan Manderville, potential recruit, was invited but couldn't attend) on the Team Canada East tryout roster. It looks like Zach Tupker was the only one to make the team.

Since it's incredibly rare for us to get a New England Prep kid, I did some searching.   Turns out that one of the assistant coaches there is former standout CU goalie Matt Underhill.

ELite Prospects lists him as a 2019 commit; he's currently a Junior.   I wonder how much of a "stretch" this commitment is since last year as a Sophomore his line was an unimpressive 4G 10A  14pts  in 38 games (albeit for what must be a stacked team that won the NE prep title)

I'm thinking he's a pretty high-level prospect considering he played a regular varsity shift as a sophomore on the best team in New England last year.  I assume after he graduates in 2019 he'll spend at least a year in Junior A, most likely in either the USHL or BCHL, similar to Cam Donaldson who played his prep hockey at The Gunnery School before going to the BCHL.
