The Medicine Hat News interviewed Triston King, and he said his agent got word that the Dallas Stars want to sign him and that a contract is on its way soon.
http://www.medicinehatnews.com/content/view/134829/110/
The News also reports that Colin Mospanchuck and Trent Ouellete were the latest cuts to be made. SO theirs 5 16 yr olds left in camp.
Reiterating from the edit I made on my previous post, Linden Vey wasn't dressed for either of the L.A Kings Exhibition games they held yesterday. The Kings and coyotes split thier rosters up and faced each other in 2 separate games yesterday.

Random Tidbits
Sean Ringrose
Last Friday the Alberta Golden Bears played the Oilers rookies. Former Tiger Sean Ringrose scored the game winner with a few minutes remaining as the Golden Bears beat the Oil rookies 4-3
Tyler Ennis
I've been reading the comments flowing through HF boards about Buffalo's training camp and numerous fans have been absolutely impressed with the play of Tyler Ennis. He is centering one of their camps top lines. Here is a quote from one of the fans.
"Ennis makes something happen every time he touches the puck. He doesn't lose it."
If your interested in following some non-official comments about him from various fans check out this thread He is mentioned every now and again.
There is also an interview up about Ennis on Buffalo's website from last Wednesday
http://sabres.nhl.tv/team/console.jsp?catid=668&id=46063
I found a preliminary roster for New York's exhibition game tomorrow vs the Devils. Kundratek is not on the list.
http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/rangers/
Linden Vey
All i found on him is that he wont be in the lineup when the Kings take on Phoenix in their first exhibition game, but may play in a secondary game at the staples center in L.A. A fan mentioned he is keeping his game simple in training camp and it looks like he has a bundle of energy but a little unsure of what to do with it all.
---------------------
Edit: A preliminary 2009-2010 roster is up at
http://www.whl.ca/stats/roster.php?step=&sub=&season_id=&team_id=206
they might be missing a 16 yr old on that list.
The roster I got at the exhibition game said Tanner Sohn was a '90 birthdate. However that is incorrect as the roster up at whl.ca lists his birth date as an '91.
It appears as if Ryan Holfeld has made the cut, barring future trades. As Kyle Birch has reportedly been cut.
For 20 yr olds
That leaves Mark Isherwood, I would think is a lock.
So Bretton Cameron, and Colton Grant fighting for that last 20yr old spot providing Ennis and Kundratek dont return.
-------------------------------------
Matt Keetley played in the flames first exhibition game vs the oilers. The Oilers won that game 4-1. Matt Keetley was in net for 19:24 seconds, and he let in 2 goals on 18 shots.
Linden Vey was not dressed in either of L.A's 2 exhibition games. Kundratek was not dressed in the N.Y rangers game

16 -17 yr olds First Impressions
just expanding on last nights comments.......
Well last night was my first look at the Tigers team, and I thought the 16 yr olds and 17 yr olds looked like they pack quite a bit of potential. I was more impressed with the 17 yr olds, but the 16 yr olds are making it a hard decision on who to keep.
The whl has a limit of 2 16 yr olds per team. Those 16 yr olds must play in at least 40 games, unless a significant injury occurs. I'm not sure if there is any specific 16 yr old roster deadline.
The 16 yr old group includes:
Dylan Businius
Dylan Bredo
Colin Mospanchuck
Boston Leir
Curtis Valk
Reid Petryk
Curtis Valk looked good, but he also looked like he was too easy to push around, and a little unbalanced at times. I would like to get another couple games to watch him play. HE is shifty on the ice, and he looks like he has a pretty good set of hands.
Dylan Bredo - My initial impression of him was that he was good along the boards, and a little more physically mature than the other 16's. I Need to watch him more to get a better opinion of him
Boston Leir - He initially reminded me of Brennan Bosch. Although he was fumbling for the puck, and looked like he had a set of nervous hands out there.
Reid Petryk - I liked his lateral mobility on the ice. He created some room and was patient with the puck. I keep seeing him on the scoresheet in exhibition games. Out of the 16 yr olds last night I liked him the most.
Dylan Businius - I remember one play where broncos justin dowling was able to get past him for a 2on1 chance. I would like to see him play another game or two before making any judgement on him.
This will be a really tough decision for desjardin to keep only 2. after watching one game I'm not sure on who I would keep.
17 yr olds
Emerson Etem
Scott McKay
Kale Kessey
TYler Bunz
Scott McKay- impressed me the most of the 17 yr olds. I thought he showed great mobility, very good ability to read the play, and wasn't afraid to bother the bronco players in front of the net and maintain good positioning on them. A little small, quick transition game, and i think he has a great deal of potential in him.
kale Kessey - I was under the impression that this was colin mopanchuck according to the rosters given out. I thought Kessey looked quite different compared to last season. I thought he had very good top speed, and seemed to keep accelerating mid-flight.
Emerson Etem - Was noticeable out there, winning puck battles in the first period. I thought he battled hard. Good speed.
Tyler Bunz - Was always square to the shooter when the broncos had a good chance. The first goal was a mad scramble in front, and the second goal he was beaten by a perfect shot on a 3 on 2. He looked good positionally, but there were a few quick half shot/passes at the net where he looked a little awkward.

Edit: Alan Caldwell who has been compiling roster lists of all teams, has Kyle Birch (G) gone from the list.

#20 Boston Leir
#23 Dylan Bredo
#28 Bretton Cameron
#29 Emerson Etem
#36 Wacey Hamilton "C"
--------------------------
The game was a fairly even game. Their were times when both teams were sorta sloppy and playing O.K, then all of a sudden the tempo would turn up a few notches. I was pretty much concentrating on the tigers players, didn't really focus on any of the broncos play.
I thought tonight was a 16yr old showcase. The tigers are only allowed to keep 2 and they had 5 playing tonight. I'll talk more about them tomorow.
New Players I liked:
#25 Tanner Sohn - A 18 yr old newcomer threw the body around lots, one of the most physical players for the tigers on the ice. He was staying with his man and hitting everything that moved. He looked pretty comfortable out there.
#3 Scott McKay - 17 yr old defensman. The first couple shifts he showed some great mobility on the back-end. He made a couple higher risk pinches that worked out perfectly. He looks a little small out on the ice, but i thought he read the play really well, and wasn't afraid to battle in front of the tigers net. Willie likes to throw his best guys on the ice for the first shift in overtime, and he was on the ice.
#18 Kale Kessey - 17 yr old I thought this kid has a good set of wheels, and I liked the potential he showed in tonights game.
#23 Dylan Bredo - 16 yr old Wasn't afraid of going into the corners, and playing the body. He has a bigger frame and i think is more physically ready than the other 16 yr olds.
#29 Emerson Etem - 17 yr old One of the bigger players on a small team. Good set of wheels
#17 Reid Petryk - 16 yr old Showed some good offensive instincts. Notched 2 assists. I kept getting him mixed up with joey frazer for some reason.
It is gonna be a really big battle for those 2 16 yr old spots, and its a little unfair that the tigers will have to cut 4 of them.
Other Notes:
Curtis Valk looked tiny out there, but he didn't make any large mistakes. He scored in the shootout. I think with the high competition for a 16 yr old spots, he might be one of the odd guys out.
Boston Leir: TO me he looked a little nervous or was hearing footsteps. I couldn't accurately judge him because it seemed like he was having one of those games where the puck hit every bump on the ice.
John Stampohar: It was comical watching the broncos play around him in the first period. No-one wanted to go near him. He would corral the puck down low then skate out in front, and try for a shot.
Cody Carlson: had a very slow start, got burned bad in the first period, but played much better in the second and third. I don't like enough about his play, he needs to be better.
Jace Coyle: was rushing the puck all over the ice. Made the right play. looked good out there.
Zdenik Okal: I was initially disappointed in his play a bit, but then he started to crunch broncos left and right. Absolutely hammered #7 Reece Scarlet of the broncos at the end of the game.
Dylan Businius 16 yr old. I thought he played an alright game. I noticed one mistake, Justin Dowling was able to beat him and get a 2on1 chance later in the game.
Feel free to comment on your thoughts of the game. I may post something later about the 16 yr old group.
Oh yeah one more thing. I was impressed by the crowd noise tonight. There was probably 1500 people and they were booing the ref like a regular season game, and cheering ecstatically when a big hit or goal was scored.

Nhl Camps (Edited 7:39PMSat)
Mark Isherwood
The Boston bruins just released their Main Camp rosters and Mark Isherwood is not on their list. I'm assuming that means he will be headed back to Medicine Hat very shortly.
Tyler Ennis
I found Buffalo's Main Camp roster and theres no surprise that Tyler Ennis is on the list. Buffalo's GM expects to get his contract done during camp.
Thomas Kundratek
I heard good things about Thomas Kundratek. Here are a couple quotes i found
"He battled Atlanta's Evander Kane all night, matched him toe-to-toe."
-Director of Player Personnel Director Gordie Clark
http://www.newsday.com/sports/hockey/rangers/blue-notes-1.811976
“Two of our goals came from a defenseman – Klassen and Kundratek – and both were solid in the game on both sides of the puck. Klassen’s goal came at a key moment in the game for us, tying the score at one goal apiece, and Kundratek’s goal was a canon of a shot, one-timed from the point.”
http://rangers.lohudblogs.com/
Edit2: Thomas Kundratek is listed on the rangers Main Camp List.
I read from a rangers blog that New York wants to send Kundratek back to the hat for another year of juniors; however, there are questions that if he is sent back to the hat, Kundratek would rather go home and play overseas overseas.
link to blog here -http://hfrangersblog.com/?p=26
Linden Vey and Matt Konan
I am having a hard time finding any info on Linden Vey, or Matt Konan. I watched the third period of the kings webcast today, but didn't see Linden Vey on the ice at all.
I found gamesheets for 2 of the 3 Anaheim games, and Matt Konan wasn't dressed. I would think both players will be back shortly.
NHL main camps mostly get underway on sunday. With exhibition games following shortly afterwards.
Edit: Found the Ducks Training Camp roster and Mathew Konan's name is not listed. He should be headed back to the Hat.
Triston King
I forgot to mention him. I've heard he has made an impression from multiple sources.(bloggers,reporters, and Dallas management) Heres one of the quotes I found from the Dallas stars management.
Forward Tristan King- smooth skater
-Assistant GM Frank Provenzano
http://stars.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=497822
Edit2: Dallas Listed their preliminary main camp rosters on Wednesday, and Triston King wasn't on their list. It's possible he could be a late addition, I'm not sure if he has been sent back yet.

Brennan Bosch
One last thing I found an article on Former Tiger Captain Brennan Bosch, about his playing days in the hat and his future going to school and playing for the Saskatchewan huskies.
http://thesheaf.com/2009/09/from-cats-to-dogs/
Saying former tiger and brennan bosch in the same sentence just feels weird!

Local Kid Listed by the Blades
I believe he is from Medicine hat but I'm not 100% sure. Darren Dietz was was listed by the Saskatoon Blades and re-assigned to the Medicine Hat "AAA" Tigers today. Last year he had tried out for Saskatoon, and then Calgary's rookie camp. This year Saskatoon saw enough in him to list him. He stands 6'1 195lbs and is an aggressive defensman.
