Blake Geoffrion & Jamie McBain-Hockey's Future Report & Rank
Hockey's Future just put out their Top 20 Prospects ranking for the Nashville Predators. Included on the list is recent draft pick and incoming UW Freshman forward Blake Geoffrion ranked number eleven. Here's part of the info they provide:
...At the Preds recent conditioning camp, Geoffrion showed his speed and appeared to fit in well despite being the youngest player present. He could stand to add some weight (and probably will) to his 6’2, 195-pound frame.
Geoffrion was invited to the U20 Evaluation Camp in Lake Placid, New York along with 13 other members of the U18 team. Head coach Ron Rolston hails from Ann Arbor, where Geoffrion attended high school. Prior to his experience with USA Hockey programs, Geoffrion played minor hockey in the Nashville Youth Hockey League. His grandfather, Bernie Geoffrion, and great grandfather, Howie Morenz, are both in the NHL Hall of Fame.
Hockey's Future also released their Top 20 Prospects for the Carolina Hurricanes. Incoming UW defenseman Jamie McBain is ranked number eleven. Here's part of their analysis:
....Although some scouts considered McBain’s abilities to be merely average, the ‘Canes felt the two-way defenseman would add valuable blueline depth to the system late in the second round. In 2006-07, McBain will play for the 2006 NCAA champion University of Wisconsin.
