Tomahawks' Bednard named to All-American Prospects Team - Junior Hockey News

Johnstown Tomahawks rookie goaltender Ryan Bednard is one of two North American Hockey League players selected to appear in the third annual CCM/USA Hockey All-American Prospects Game, to be played in Buffalo later this month.

The game features 42 of the top American-born prospects eligible for the 2014 National Hockey League Entry Draft. The game is slated for Sept. 25 at First Niagra Center, the home of the NHL's Buffalo Sabres.

Bednard, the younger brother of the Tomahawks' 2013-14 leading scorer Shane Bednard, will play for the team coached by former NHL player Mike Grier. Former Pittsburgh Penguins player and head coach Eddie Olczyk will coach the opposing team.

The game will include 23 players appearing on NHL Central Scouting's "Futures List," which highlights players viewed as potential picks within the first three rounds of next summer's NHL Entry Draft.

"It's a huge honor to be invited to play in the All-American Prospects Game," Bednard said. "It means a lot to be listed as one of the top four American-born goaltenders of this draft class. It's going to be a quick, fast-paced game. I'm ready for it and looking forward to the opportunity."

We're going to need a goalie in two years, so the timing works out nicely.

C Rating - indicates 4th/5th/6th-round candidate

Which may not seem like much but there are only three goalies on that list with a B rating and none with an A.

Friedman had a C rating in Nov. Watch List too, and as we know ended up going in the 3rd.
