I'm going to be honest- I think Mutryn might be a first rounder by the time all is said and done. Really good size/skating combo, better defensive game than any of his fellows, and the production is pretty good, especially per game. Could be my BC-homerness, but I like him and Hurlbert more than any of the other forwards on the squad as future NHL guys.
Team got destroyed 10-2 i think last night . Somebody on this board was saying heavy discussion of having just one u -18 team ? My view might make sense because picking kids coming from midget hockey which is very hard for lot of them on how they translate playing junior hockey .
The NTDP has a pretty insane track record of good NHL players. Every time I watch NHL games it feels like a new former NTDP kid is getting a callup. There's no reason to think players would start running away from the program.Relax, the team loses by huge margins in their U17 year every year. And this team is dealing with losing their best 1-3 players every game for the last month due to promotions.
NTDP isn’t cutting a team, nor is losing by this scoreline a worry. Go check previous years score lines. Nothing new.
