In this issue of the newsletter, we survey our scouts and sources and once again adjust the rankings for both the top 150 for 96 born and top 75 for 97 born players. Some fast risers on the list and some who haven't quite taken the next step yet.
I had a chance this week to speak with a defenceman in Manitoba who wants to follow Reid Gow's footsteps, we think he is well on his way!
I also spoke with one of the biggest defenceman available for the draft who has a rocket of a shot but is skating a concern?
And we preview a couple of the top 97 born talents available for the 2012 WHL Bantam draft. One has a famous father who played in the NHL and a brother who currently plays in the WHL who should be a high NHL draft pick in June. Also, I spoke with a rural Manitoba player who won't be flying under the radar for much longer!
Please note: The next issue will be the final issue before Christmas. There will be a comprehensive tournament re-cap of the Prince Albert bantam tournament which features most of all the Saskatchewan bantam teams, as well as the Russell Rams. Also, I hope to preview the St. Albert tournament.

I don't think Russell is in the Prince Albert tournament. They are in the GSHL tournament over New Years.
Do you have any predictions for the pools in PA?
That is correct....Must've had a brain cramp there. Winnipeg Sharks are in the Prince Albert tournament and will join Prince Albert in the same pool which should be interesting
