Peyton Lee and Jordan Papirny Interviews
It seems to have become clear that Jordan Papirny from SSAC Southgate Lions in the Edmonton area and Peyton Lee who played with the Pursuit of Excellence Hockey Academy have separated themselves from the pack for goalies. Jordan Papirny was the top goalie in virtually ever tournament that SSAC participated in and was a standout at westerns and the Alberta Cup. Peyton Lee is coming off a great BC Cup and stand out season with POE.

Explain some of your most vivid memories from your minor hockey days growing up in Cranbrook both on a personal and team level?
I have made a lot of friends throughout the years playing hockey in Cranbrook. Also I have many memories of long bus trips, and early morning practices.
What was the decision behind attending Pursuit of Excellence Hockey program in Kelowna? How do you feel it has made you develop this season?
My family and I decided that going to Pursuit of Excellence would help me with my development of hockey and life skills. I think that pursuit has helped me with a lot of things so far this year; the quality of coaching and training that we get will help me, and my team-mates in our goals of becoming better hockey players.
You are widely regarded as one of the top goalies for the WHL Bantam Draft this spring. What do you think sets you apart from some of the other goalies in your age class?
I think my size and mobility, as well as competitive nature have helped me so far in hockey.
What weaknesses are you currently working on to excel both in midget hockey and junior hockey town the road?
I'm currently working on my flexibility and trying to improve on all aspects of my game.
Which NHL goalie would you like to pattern your game after and why?
Cam Ward and Carey Price are to goalies that I would like to pattern my game after because I grew up watching them play in the WHL, and I feel that they are two of the top goalies in the NHL.
What future hockey goals have you set for yourself and what will it take to achieve those goals?
I would like to be one of the top goalies selected in this year’s WHL bantam draft and would like to be selected to play on team BC. In order to achieve those goals, I will have to continue to work hard on and off the ice.

Last season you were one of the top goalies in the ambhl as a first year goalie. What was the biggest reason for that type of success?
Well I hate to take credit for it all because i had outstanding team mates in front of me helping me out. My goal for last year was to just work as hard and I can and never stop giving it all that I got and at the end of it all have no regrets
What minor hockey memory sticks out in your mind the most?
Peewee Tier 1 when we played against Calgary Blackfoot in provincials. They had never lost a game all season and we beat them 5-1, i had 31 saves. Brycen Martin, Brayden Point were on the Calgary team.
This season, you once again have outstanding numbers. Explain what type of goaltender you are and who you model your game after?
Im not really sure what style I play but i just try and stop the puck in the simplest way possible with no rebound. My favorite goalie in the NHL is Carey Price, I try to mold my game around his (obviously i try to be more consistent) but as long as the puck is out of the net then I'm happy.
Do you think you have what it takes to perhaps play in the WHL some day and what do you think you will have to work on to make it?
I'm not too concerned about the WHL right now, we got a long season ahead of us and if i keep focused and working hard, hopefully i can get to that next level

Top USA Prospect Taylor Vickerman
Taylor Vickerman
Spokane Jr. Chiefs Bantam AAA
6-0 175
April 12, 1996
Explain a little bit first about where you played your minor hockey and some of the main highlights growing up playing the game?
I started playing when I was about 3-years-old in the beginner’s program in Tri-Cities, Washington. I played in Tri-Cities through peewees. This year I am playing for the Spokane Jr. Chiefs Bantam AAA team coached by Cam Severson. Some of my main team highlights are from this year. We’ve won several tournaments including the Washington State Tier I Championship. And we go to San Jose March 3-6 for the Pacific District Championships and are looking to go to Nationals from there. Some of my main individual highlights are being selected for the USA Hockey Select-14 National Festival last summer and getting to play for Coach Severson this year. I won fastest skater at the Seafair tournament which was pretty cool.
As you have progressed through the ranks, it has become apparent that you are one of the better players in Washington State. How would you compare the caliber of hockey in the US Northwest to some of the Canadian players or teams?
Hockey is different in all parts of North America. But for me, the type of hockey I like is drive-to-the-net and hard work -- which is in both the western US and Canada. Our team has played well against some good BC teams this year. Our next big test against some of the top teams from BC will be at KIBIHT in April. But I definitely love playing in Canada. The hockey is so good up there. I’ve probably played more games in Canada than in the US this year.
What are your plans for the next couple seasons as you move on to midget hockey? Do you plan on staying in the US or perhaps heading north of the border?
I am definitely looking to join a top midget program – either in the US or Canada. I’m just looking for a program with solid coaching, that will help me progress in developing my skills and that will help me get to the next level. I haven’t committed to a program for next year yet.
Do you have interest in playing in the WHL and if so, how much are you starting to think about the US prospects camp and the draft afterwards?
I’ll just put my game out there and see what happens. I just want to play at the highest level possible. Whatever direction that is I am open to it.
What skills set you apart right now from some of the other players in your age group?
I think of myself as a big power forward with skill and hockey sense. I like playing with a strong work ethic and a passion to win. Even though I like to drive hard to the net, I also take pride in my passing and my stats show that I can be an assist guy as well.
What weaknesses in your game would you like to work on to get your game to the next level?
I want to continue working on my speed. My skating coach is helping me
me with that. And I want to work on finding open ice.
Finally, which NHL or WHL players do you look up to in terms of hockey skill, talent or leadership? Who would you like to pattern your game after?
I look up to Tyler Johnson because he’s at the top in the WHL in points, he’s smart with the puck, and he’s such a great skater. In the NHL, I like Jonathan Toews because he’s a big guy like me and I study how he goes to the corners and always comes out with the puck and uses his body with strength and confidence. I would like to pattern my game after Alex Ovechkin. He goes into the corners with speed and isn’t afraid to get rough. Plus he has great hands and a great shot.

The Calgary Champions Cup is underway and we are gradually starting to shift the focus from the 96 and 97 born players to the 97 and 98 groups. Most of the best summer hockey teams and many of the top players in these age groups are taking part in both age groups. Once again in the 97 age group, it looks like the Saskatoon Jr. Blades, Calgary Jr. Flames and the Vancouver Selects Blue looks to be loaded with prospects in the 97 age group.
The Vancouver Selects Blue were the only undefeated team in the round-robin portion going 4-0-0 while outscoring the opposition 31-8. The Vancouver squad are led by Adam Musil (brother of Vancouver Giants defenseman David), Jordan Kawaguchi, Tyler Soy, Darien Craighead (son of former NHLer John), Matt Bradley and Ty Ronning (son of cliff). On defense, big Tanner Browne who looks to be a sure fire top 10 pick next year, Noah Jullsen and American Daniel Woolfenden. Goalies Evan Sarthou from the US and Quinton Paille have been with this program for a few years now.
The Saskatoon Jr. Blades are once again a powerhouse and the team has almost all of the top end players in the province. The Jr. Blades went 3-0-1 outscoring the opposition 27-8. Up front, Rylee Zimmer who looks like another sure fire top 10 pick and will be playing with Notre Dame is one of the offensive leaders. Terrell Draude, Matt Campese, Regan Nagy and small shifty Jimmy Lambert add ample offence. The back-end is deep just like Vancouver and really doesn't have a weakness. Tate Olson from Saskatoon is very good and Lochlan Morrison along with Mike Eskra are elite.
The Calgary Jr. Flames are once again strong but perhaps not as strong as last years squad that was just loaded from top to bottom. The Flames in the tournament are 3-1-0 and have outscored the opposition 22-10. They lost to the BC Jr Heat 5-4 and narrowly defeated the POE Red Stars 4-3. Mason McCarty, Nick Merkley and Ryan Barrow will give the team some dangerous scoring while on defense Savi Scalise, Marshall Burr and Oliver Lester are very capable. Riley Morris and Jake Morrissey handle the goaltending duties.
The NAA Rangers from the Edmonton are are also 3-1-0 and round out the last of the so-called dangerous teams. Up front Dylan Stewart and Andrew Marshall look to be dangerous with good speed and skill. On Defense, Clayton Eisler and Dylan Overdyk are smooth skating defenseman will skill. Tyler Kwiatkowski will handle many of the big games in goal for the Rangers this summer.
Also, stay tuned to the final Mock Draft that I will post on the site Tuesday. I'm just waiting for some final notes to come my way and for the BC Cup to be completed. I'm not too sure if Virtanen and Gropp have hurt their ranking or not by having a bit of an off weekend and not tearing it up like many of us thought they may. One weekend certainly doesn't make a season but a bit more domination was expected.

One weekend certainly doesn't make a season but a bit more domination was expected.
