Joseph Sinclair, #91 Sherwood Park Crusaders – October 6, 2007. Right shot centre. 5.10 /176. 2-way Centre
Strength: Smooth skater with strong edge control. Drives to the front of the net to create traffic and generate scoring opportunities, contributing to a goal. Displays a clear team-first mentality, playing an unselfish, pass-first style.
Opportunity: His team-oriented approach can sometimes hold him back from showcasing his individual skill and offensive presence.
Forecast: Probably a career ‘AHL’ candidate, but could sneak into the later rounds for a team willing to take a chance.

Danick St. Pierre, #10 Sherwood Park Crusaders – May 13, 2008 Left shot right wing. 6.02/185. 2-way forward
Strength: Strong edge work and a high compete level. Battles hard and stays engaged throughout the play.
Opportunity: Needs improvement on the defensive side of the puck. Has limited puck touches, and when he does have possession, decision-making can lead to unforced turnovers.
Forecast: Unlikely to get drafted.

BCHL Sherwood Park Crusaders (1) @ Spruce Grove Saints (2) November 1, 2025 @ 19:00
Gabriel O’Brien, #8 Sherwood Park Crusaders – April 3, 2008, Left shot left wing. 6.03/198. 2-way forward
Strength: Strong skater with good tenacity. Shows impressive compete level — drew two penalties on one shift and stayed focused, getting right back into the play instead of engaging the ref. Willing to go to the net and battle for position.
Opportunity: Needs to play heavier on the body. When he does engage physically, he tends to get in too tight, leading to holding penalties instead of clean checks. Can be knocked off his feet too easily.
Forecast: Unlikely to get drafted.

Gage Brandon, #82 Sherwood Park Crusaders – June 10, 2008, Left shot left wing. 5.10/148.
Strength: Limited sample size to evaluate.
Opportunity: Skating needs improvement. Didn’t see much ice time — only about three shifts over two periods — making it difficult to assess overall impact.
Forecast: Unlikely to get drafted.

WHL Prince George Cougars (1) @ Vancouver Giants (2) November 2, 2025 @ 17:00
Arseni Anisimov, #8 Prince George Cougars – November 25, 2007 – Left shot defenseman. 5.11 / 174
Strength: Anisimov is a Uses an active stick effectively. Strong skater who closes gaps quickly and holds the blue line with confidence.
Opportunity: Could improve his overall quickness to better match elite forwards with high-end foot speed. Needs to sharpen situational awareness, particularly in tracking opponents behind him when he shades toward one side of the ice. Adding more strength would help him win a higher percentage of board battles.
Currently not listed and I feel it is unlikely he will get drafted.

Kayden Lemire, #28 Prince George Cougars – January 27, 2008 – Right shot right wing. 6.04 / 194
Strength: Shows decent agility for a big player. Willingly blocks shots and uses his size effectively to play a physical game. Extremely strong and capable of overpowering opposing defensemen in front of the net.
Opportunity: Needs to play with more assertiveness in the defensive zone. Could benefit from improving his speed. Tends to favor a dump-and-chase approach rather than carrying the puck over the blue line and driving to the net. Took an undisciplined penalty behind the play in the neutral zone during this viewing.
Currently not listed and I feel it is unlikely he will get drafted.
