Recruits 2023 and beyond

[Trotsky]

The second French Canadian Jew after Duddy Kravitz (if you have never seen that movie drop everything and see it immediately, Richard Drefuss' finest role which is a high bar.)

His Elite page. We won't be hurting for goalies, anyway.

Let's hope he's The Chosen.

[Trotsky]

In passing, this was the most recent name added to Elite.  I demand we immediately recruit him just for the name.

One of the best-known refs of 40 years ago was Percy Shore, of the Tribe, often partnered with Giles Threadgold. When Percy departed this world to see about Commandments 11-15 being real or not, his grandson tracked me down, asked if I could send a short college hockey remembrance because he'd been elected to the Ontario Jewish Sports Hall of Fame and "I know what you're thinking. Yes, there is an Ontario Jewish Sports Hall of Fame."

The Athletic has an article (with a paywall) where one of their NHL experts rates the top 131 prospects for the upcoming NHL draft. The only one with an ECAC connection is Ben McDonald, No. 79 on his list, who is committed to Harvard. The majority of the players listed are either European or playing major junior hockey in Canada, but three of them are committed to Boston University, which means we may see them at MSG next year. Only the University of Minnesota, with four commits on the list, has more.

Think the Harvard recruit is Ben MacDonald, who's dad is former Harvard player Lane MacDonald.

Looking at various 7-round mock drafts, Fegaras seems a shoe-in to be drafted, probably in the 4th-5th round. Liam Steele may be a 6th-7th round guy, while Luke Devlin, who seemed likely to be drafted earlier this year, now appear to be a fringe 7th round guy. Mosko's drafting picture seems the most muddled, as I've seen him as high as the 4th round to not being drafted at all.

George Fegaras drafted 83rd overall, the highest in the ECAC this year.

Ben MacDonald (Harvard, 91st) 3rd round

Daimon Gardner (Clarkson, 113rd), Ryan Healey (Harvard, 121st)  4th round

Matthew Morden (Harvard, 131st), Michael Callow (Harvard, 154th) 5th round

I really hope we get to keep Fegaras (pray emoji)

What teams picked them up?

[jeff '84]

Fegaras went to Dallas.

I've done that!   It's quite a memorable experience!

Follow-up tweet says Walsh is headed to Ithaca this fall.

I'd be surprised if this is due to Ertel's departure, since we seemed to have adequate forward depth even without him. Andreev is now on the 22-23 roster, so Walsh wouldn't be needed to fill that void.

I imagine CR is Cedar Rapids and he's going to play a year in the USHL
