Who has said this lol? These kids aren't even in high school.

Its next to impossible to suggest realistic names. But keep in mind 13 years old is the same time we first heard of McDavid, Bedard, etc.

I did hear rumblings that Mid Fairfield 12s were one of the best youth hockey teams ever. Played the entire season last year up at the 2011 level and did well. This year playing at their own level and according to MHR are 52-0

Also the first I heard of Sean Day, which is why this shouldn't even seriously be discussed lol.

This is ridiculous....

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Nobody is talking about how deep this draft class is…. Well except for the parents of these kids

It's not that ridiculous. Dustin Rose was a household name at age 4.

I get what you're saying. For me personally I start taking kids seriously when they're 14. That's when you start to see separation and some junior programs and the NTDP for example start looking at prospects for their 16 year old year to track development. As you know, the WHL drafts kids when they're 14 so I think it's reasonable to start tracking then.

He didn't retire from hockey.

Hockey retired from Him.
