Yay Hunter Smith! I guess he goes to the AHL next year then. Nothing more he can do in Windsor. They're going full tear down too I suppose.

Yeah you can draft 21 year old Euros and 21 and 22 year olds who re-enter the draft because their team didn't sign them.

How was Merkley? Shannon was pumping his tires. Seemed to make some good passes and had a good sequence in the Oshawa zone from my limited viewing.

Smith's team defeats McDavid's in the OHL playoffs, but McDavid is named the MVP of the playoffs.

Let's hope this trend continues throughout their NHL careers.

No problem, BTW if you want an example of a 21 year old that might get drafted in this year's draft look at Jiri Fronk. Ranked 151st North American skater by CSS. He is considered a "Euro" because he didn't play a complete season in North America as an 18, 19 or 20 year old.

Congrats to Hunter Smith. Good to see a Flames prospect learning how to be a winner before the NHL.

Same here, plus he has a good head on his shoulders. He was the nicest of the players that I talked to at the development camp last year. He'll easily be a fan favourite when he makes the NHL.
