I understood that Swenson has signed with the Portland of the WHL so he is no longer eligible for College.

How can Mn high school hockey players even be considered as prospects anymore? It is foolish.

As these players get older they continue to compete with players younger then themselves. I would hope they would appear to do better year after year.

At least the athletes that play Tier-I are always playing players that are the same age or older.

And the players that move on to Juniors while still in high school are almost always competing with players that are older and very seasoned.

how can you say that MN HS players cant be considered prospects? look at the nhl draft and you'll see a ton of minnesotans, more than any other state. and MN actually has a good HS program, which is why kids stick around at HS and don't play Tier 1
