Weird thread.

There’s lots of good Lebanese players coming up in western Canada.

This kid leading the midget AAA league this year (as a first year) is awesome (Halat). His dad was a linemate of Danny Hartley back in the day.

What is nuts is the amount of Asian kid studs soon to make big leagues. Perfect storm. Parents tend to be crazy strict. There’s Korean and Japanese kids being sent over to play hockey at 15 without their parents. My kids have played with a bunch at Edge. It’s crazy.
