Domnechelli - 148pts in 62 games for Kamloops in '95-'96
Schremp - 145 in 57 games for London in '05-'06
Peter Sarno - 130pts in 68 games for Sarnia in '98-'99
Corey Locke - 150pts in 66 games for Ottawa in '02-'02
The list goes on. To do it in the Dub is definately harder, and he looks VERY promising, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Junior success is a fairly good predictor of Major League success, but it ain't foolproof...

There's also Pavel Brendl with 73 goals & 134 points in his 1st year in The Dub with the Calgary Hitmen as a 17-18 year old, and all of 22 points in 78 career NHL contests.
