This is enough to make one vomit. At any rate:

Ew.  I'm just going to assume that this is only a partial list.

[CowbellGuy]

Considering it has A, B, and C players, I'm not so sure. The complete list was just top 30ish, but the bulk of the players on the NCAA watch list weren't on it.

It just shows how bad a coach he is.

[pfibiger]

It is probably complete. That said, plenty of kids get drafted who aren't on any watch lists, and lots of players high up on these lists never get drafted. I could see someone taking a flyer on either Esposito (bloodlines, early season play) or Axell (size).

There are also a bunch of draft-eligible players committed to Cornell for next year and beyond. Mathieu Brisson is predicted to be an early pick in 2010 and Brian Ferlin could be drafted pretty high too. Andy Iles has size working against him but he could definitely be drafted as well. Oh, and Gotovets was already drafted in 2009.

This shouldn't be surprising.  Isn't John Esposito the only player on the Cornell roster who will first be draft eligible in 2010?  Undersized playmakers are habitually overlooked by NHL scouts.

Ryan Vesce, for one

Martin St. Louis for a more notable example.

Those are the two guys I had most prominently in mind.

My post was vague, but it was more along the lines of, "Look how lame Harvard is despite all their blue chippahs," rather than, "Where are the Cornell players?" I wasn't really expecting to see any.

I know.  I was writing about the list itself, rather than what you had written.

All hail the mighty roll players!

Yup. And don't worry, it won't be changing this year.
