Trying to figure out this kids draft year. Can anyone one tell me if its this year or next year? How high do the Lethbridge fans see him going?

His draft yr is in fact 2008. It is tough to say where he will go in the draft. If he was 6'2 he could make the top 10, but he is only 5'8. In the 2006 draft, no one under 5'10 got picked until the 3rd round.
Boychuk has been in the top 15 in scoring all yr and it's interesting to note that last yr led all 16 yr olds in scoring (and that includes Brandon Sutter).
I continue to be impressed by him, does not take a shift off and look at his performance against the Russians , he got some effort assists off his work along the boards. Kind of like a Martin St. Louis. Keep it up
Thanks for the info guys. I can see Boychuk being a top 10 guy in next years draft forsure!
Boychuk, 2008 Eligible.
I don't see his situation being that much different from Brian Little.
Little had 3 years in junior under his belt in his draft year, as will Boychuk, Little is not the biggest guy out their but he plays in all situations and is the team leader both on and off the ice. If Boychuk can follow a similiar development curve as Little, then I'd say the first round is within his grasp.
