BCHL talents hoping to hear their names called on Sunday in New Jersey
Friday, June 28, 2013 - Submitted by BCHL Media
This year's NHL Entry Draft at Prudential Center in New Jersey is later than normal owing to the labour turmoil so a few BCHL players will be having to wait a few extra days to see if they're claimed by an NHL club.
The final NHL Central Scouting rankings came out in late April and eight BCHL players were listed, including the top four Junior A prospects.
Here's a quick rundown of the players who could be in for an exciting weekend:
Adam Tambellini, F, Surrey Eagles (36G, 26A, 26PIM last season)
Tambellini has the NHL bloodlines that scouts love with an NHL dad and older brother. He has a projectable 6-foot-3, 170-pound frame and skates and shoots at a pro level. Committed to North Dakota for next season.
David Pope, F, West Kelowna Warriors (17G, 22A, 20PIM last season)
Pope gave a glimpse of what he could do last season approaching a point-per-game pace with the Warriors. Attended the NHL Draft combine . Commited to the University of Nebraska-Omaha for 2014.
Luke Ripley, D, Powell River Kings (2G, 11A, 85PIM last season)
Ripley became the latest in a long line of blueline prospect from Powell River and displayed a rugged game with 85 penalty minutes. Also showed well at the World Junior A Challenge. Committed to Notre Dame for 2014.
Nolan De Jong, D, Victoria Grizzlies (5G, 19A, 16PIM last season)
De Jong mentored under Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Ryan O'Byrne who was a Grizzlies assistant last season during the NHL work stoppage. Played at the WJAC and is committed to Michigan for the fall.
Dane Birks, D, Merritt Centennials (5G, 15A, 28PIM last season)
Birks is the son of a hockey coach (Trail Smoke Eaters bench boss Bill Birks) and got off to a great start last season with a ton of scouts watching the BCHL Showcase. Committed to Michigan Tech for 2015.
Jedd Soleway, F, Penticton Vees (19G, 27A, 62PIM last season)
Soleway's late surge got him into the Central Scouting rankings after being unlisted earlier in the season. At 6-foot-3, 215 pounds, he has a pro-ready body but will play first at the University of Wisconsin starting this fall.
Kevin Guiltinan, D, Prince George Spruce Kings (0G, 3A, 100PIM last season)
Guiltinan is a throwback-type player that won't likely earn any scoring titles but really enjoys the physical side of the game. Advanced physically at 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, he's also smart and will go to Harvard in 2014.
Chad Katunar, G, Penticton Vees (25W, 2.36GAA, .920sv%, 4SO last season)
Katunar takes up a lot of the net at 6-foot-6, 218 pounds. Has gone on deep playoff runs each of the last two seasons with the Vees. As a 1993-born player, he's of the older draft-eligible players. Committed to Notre dame for the fall.
