any news on the bantam draft prospects? and llist players? who might help? what do the Pats need most?
I did a bit of research on the Pats prospects. The Pats scouts are being have taken a lot of heat on other message boards regarding the fact that they are drafting midgets. There seems to be relief on the way.
2003 draft (16 year olds)
Scott Eberle - 5'11 - 172
Lucas Hepting - 5'11 - 175
Tyler Moir - 6'1 - 195
2004 draft (15 year olds)
Brett Leffler - 6'1 - 190
Nick Ross - 6'0 - 180
Linden Rowat - 6'0 - 170 (that's OK, he's a tender)
Matt Delahay - 6'0 - 180
Jason McDonald - 6'1 - 185
Derek Hulak - 5'11 - 180
Then there is Levi Lind 17 - 6'3 - 190 and Mike O'Dwyer 17 - 6'3 - 190
Both Nieszner and Rowat have save percentages over .900 (I think Nieszner's is about .921)
Is it going to help next year? I don't know, but next year can't possibly be any worse than this year.

Zack MacKinnon big strong Fwd is wearing the C for his midgetAAA team and led the team in PP goals. Could be a solid 3rd line player for the pats next year
