**z187** · 30-11-2006, 02:14 AM

hes supposed to be one of Canadas top hockey prospects, dont be surprised if he surpasses ribeiro

I just hope he doesnt end up playing for the habs or sens

**jec1** · 30-11-2006, 02:50 AM

You kiddng me, He is no comparable to any player I've seen. The kid is incredible, Speed, Good Shot and Very Physical.

He is better then Ribeiro. I also think he will be a superstar if he plays in the NHL. He is playing in a tourney and has played really impressive.

**jec1** · 30-11-2006, 02:51 AM

Z-Man, he use to play For the Marlies, Now he is in his sophomore year with Oshawa General.

Quaresma2020 · 30-11-2006, 11:11 PM

Hey Jec you've said that you go to watch Oshawa play alot, do you remember Ben Eager? He played for the generals now plays for the flyers. I played hockey with that guy and we went to high school together... I don't find him that good but if he's in the nhl then he did something right!

**Frank Cunha** · 30-11-2006, 11:14 PM

I like Hockey, but piss's me off, when half of the time I don't see the puck

I went with my kid to a Devils game, and every five minutes they would stop, I ask him for, and he said so they could have a tv time out

**z187** · 30-11-2006, 11:43 PM

Ive heard about this kid alot too, from ppl other than Jec1

he is hyped up alot, I hope he lives up to his potential and hopefully plays for the Maple Leafs one day

**jec1** · 01-12-2006, 12:05 AM

Haha, Ben Eager....Never met him but My cousin knows some of the players. He was drafted in 2002 I believe. Not a scorer cause he has been crap this year.

Do you support the Ottawa 67'S? I love there logo, It's all about tradition.

I support the Medicine Hat Tigers of the WHL, They have some Good players who will be superstars in the NHL.

He is hyped up

I know but this kid is the real deal. Watch the Canadian Juniors he will make the team and you will see how Good he is with the puck.

**jec1** · 01-12-2006, 12:12 AM

How can you not see the puck? It's a Great Sport, Very Physical and Hardworking Players. Fast paced and when you watch it live it's exciting.

I've played it since I was 8, I would've been a Hockey Player but it's a hard league to Get drafted. With the New Rules this era is better then it was before, More in tuned For the skillful players and the scoring is incredible.

My Fav players are Cam Ward,Sidney Crosby, Darcy Tucker, Alexander Ovechkin,Ric Nask, Joe Thornton.

**bandini** · 01-12-2006, 12:14 AM

I'd have to say it's one of the most exciting sports to go watch live. I've only been to a few games but they were so exciting. Also had the privilege once of sitting front row. First time a guy got checked into the glass in front of us the guy next to me almost took off out of his seat

**jec1** · 01-12-2006, 12:27 AM

Yep, That happens alot. They like to hit hard and the Glass is not always protected, So be careful My Friends.

I will try to Get tickets to this years World Juniors. This tourney will showcase the best young talent in the world.

Ben Eager was really good when we played Major Bantam "AA" for the Ottawa Sting. And I really don't watch junior hockey too much but when I go to games I go watch The Gatineau Olympiques. They have a very strong team this year. My brother inlaw owns a box there soo whenever I want to go watch I go.. it's a pretty fun time!

**jec1** · 02-12-2006, 07:17 PM

Cool bro, You should watch the World Juniors. This team will be packed with Amazing Talent.

John tavares should be on the team. He has talent and I see him being a Star in the NHL .

Quaresma2020 · 03-12-2006, 07:27 PM

of course.. I always watch the world juniors. It's a good boxing day start!

Im only alittle upset because Montreal is not letting Latendress play for the world juniors. that kid is playing amazing for the canadians I would like to see him at the world juniors but I guess it's not going to happen!

**jec1** · 03-12-2006, 09:38 PM

Well Guys, Tavares tallied up 5Pts yesterday and today you can watch him in action if you have Sportsnet at 7.

Bro, We have Amazing talent. There is no need For a kid From the NHL ranks to come to the Junior team. Craig Hartsberg is the coach and said he is looking For Speed.
