2006-07 WHL 20-year-old players

[nivek_wahs]

As I sit here bored at work, I compiled a list of each teams' 20-year-old players. Each team is allowed a maximum of 3 except for Chilliwack which can carry 5. I believe the cut down day is October 12th this year. So without further adieu here they are...

I don't think I missed anyone, and I believe all the players are correct... I was uncertain about some of the 20-year-old "most likely will play pro" guys (Dubnyk, Rabbit, Spurgeon, etc.). So they weren't included.

[GOBLADESGO#3 (among other aliases)]

Wow those are all gtreat popular players that are going to be gone at the end of the season, i eralyl started getting into the WHL at the start of the 2004-05 season and those were the guys i followed and was used to for so long, so its going to be diffrent next season, alot of good players gone.

[Hunt24]

[langdak]

Curtis Cooper was traded by Prince George to Saginaw Spirit (OHL) today.


I wouldnt call it a trade.

PG put him on waivers and nobody in the WHL claimed him, which in turn allowed him to sign with Saginaw in the OHL.

[N.W. Bruin]

At the general manager meeting being held today.

Than clubs have a couple days to release or add players to get their their final three.

[dondo]

btw Scharff's been put on waivers .. by the Giants
