Jacob Brannon also commited to NCAA. He is ranked 18th so depending on other teams needs could be availiable with our first pick of the second round. Interesting....... thechronicleherald.ca/Sports/1185334.htmlHow bout this comment from Brennan? "I thought about (major junior) compared to NCAA and I’ve decided to go NCAA," Brennan said. "I’d say there could be some teams that would be able to convince me but right now I’m not planning on that." Hmmmmm I wonder which teams those would be.....

I wonder if Tipper will not draft him because he hates "NCAA bluffs" since the Esposito thing?

Not really, he sort of "invented" the NCAA bluff Q version when he was with Halifax 10 years ago. Guys like Guenette Sheppard Saulnier and others...

According to Willy Palov's Twitter, No. 1 rated QMJHL draft prospect Michael Matheson has elected to go the NCAA route. Is he playing the "NCAA" Card or is he serious about playing USHL next year? . . . and Wuest is reporting on his Twitter that BC is taking Matheson regardless.

He would have to know it would be either BC or Halifax would take him... so the fact he even brought up the NCAA card would maybe suggest he may not go to BC. Or Halifax even, but its doubtful. Maybe the NCAA comments are only used to get the best deal possible from the team drafting him, and he fully intends to report. If he was ok with BC, and they pretty much told him they would be taking him, NCAA comments wouldnt have been made. Sounds like BC may be taking a big risk.

I do not believe that the Drakkar might end up taking that risk like VD did with Louis Leblanc. Can a 16 YO be traded in his first year? I do not believe either that Smith would agree to trade up for Matheson or offer him a scolarship package as he said before that he wanted to get away from these since Patenaude's departure.

I think if BC takes him, that means they have already had talks about what it would take to get him there and BC's management thinks that they can reach an agreement. For example if BC's recent offer is 25K put away for his education and the family wants 100k, they have to make a call that if they can meet halfway this is an acceptable deal for BC.

Obviously they can, Donnelly and Bussieres were...

If Halifax picks him you will know he will be a Moose. No surprise there.....just another Maritimer taking the simplistic linguistic approach... Or....it could also be another one nitpicking the team he wants to play....not my type either way. I hope, for the better of the Q, that Matheson is sincere about his NCAA claim according to Palov, but I doubt it very much. The kid playing in the league is for the better of the league.....regardless of where he ends up. You spew this same garbage every year at this time in regards to these kids.

The kid playing dou[ble play learns early that lying is for his good, that bluffing can be advantageous, etc.... I prefer a straight face to a hypocrit.

So you already forget LAST year's draft.....
