Beantown Spring Classic - Selection Process
|
The scouting staff for the Beantown Classic watches games (EJHL, Midgets,
Prep/HS) over a period from Labor day thru the 3rd weekend in December
(prep tournament weekend).
After the prep tournament weekend a list of top performers is compiled.
This list has over 240 names for the Draft Division and 130 names
for the Pre Draft Division.
The staff then meets after the holidays and selects 50% of the players
(approximately 30 of 72 total) and sends invitations. The first group
of players selected are those players who have made D-1 college commitments
or players that the NHL has serious interest in drafting.
Players who are still on the list will be monitored over the month
of January. Based on performance and past accomplishments the remaining
players will be selected.
The remaining player selection will be made by the second week of
February.
Once the players have been selected the staff will continue to monitor
the rest of the list as injuries and spring sport conflicts will open
up additional spots for invitation.
