Dawson Pasternak (Victoria, WHL) - Manitoba

It appears the Manitoba coaching change is paying dividends and Winnipeg-born players are now willing to play for the Bisons.

Fischer O'Brien (Alberni Valley Bulldogs, BCHL) - RMC
Jarrett Todd (Truro Bearcats, MJAHL) - RMC
Noah Matulu (Edmundston, MJAHL) - RMC

Announced major junior recruits are down this year. Are more signing minor pro deals?

I did a very rough count at Elite Prospects. Of the junior grads announced as recruited by USports teams are:
43 from Junior A
6 from Major Junior
5 from US Junior

(This goes back to March 1st. Not all announced elsewhere are on the list. Some Major Junior players played overage in Junior A.)

It’s not that unusual to see a lack of CHL commits at this point, is it? They usually don’t pick up until after the Memorial Cup. The big schools don’t typically announce anything until later in the summer.
Recruiting and recruiting visits are happening and have been happening. Agree announcements official usually come later in the summer.

Guys I would add on D for being strong defensive players are:

Braden HacheDSaginawOHL6591322
Andre AnaniaDSudburyOHL60103141

Arnsby is a top defensive forward and likes to hit.

Saw that. One year, 2-way. He has a lot of tangibles ( solid D, shot blocking, likes to hit) that are appealing. Hope it works out for him. If not, he may be a nice Christmas gift for some USports team.
