I'm new to this site and maneuvering around is a learning process and keep having to scroll around to get back to where I want/should be.
I did see a couple of posts where Jacobson was as high as 5th.. go figure lol. That was a January 2023 post. It then dropped to 12-15th.
Unfortunately I didn't find your post.
Having said that yes i agree with the youngsters coming up. I think Elick and Baumuller will be really good for sure. McQueen has yet to impress me. I know he is young and is finding his game. I do have faith.
So I hope these picks do us real well.
I think McQueen had a big learning curve this year. He is a big kid with a lot of skill. He was so good at the u17s and I thought he would break out after that but it just wasn't clicking although the entire team was a bit of a tire fire and they fired the coach and brought in a bunch of players via trades. I am expecting McQueen to get prime time minutes this year.
Elick is going to be so good in this league he reminds me of Braden Schneider. Baumiller I think will be good. He looked real good playing as a 15 year old. The Wheaties "should" be better this year but it really depends on some of the younger guys stepping up. They will have great goaltending though.
I like Jacobson just because you don't see 14 year olds in the midget league doing what he did. Granted I don't see alot of the other kids and I don't get out to rinks as much as I used. I think I saw Rink play 2 times last year so I didn't see alot of those kids. I won't be able to see the u16 POE camp which is something I like to watch.
