Scouting service offers insight on the top draft-eligible players who spent 2015-16 in college.

Falcon Adam Smith is the list:

4. Adam Smith, Bowling Green (#103 overall)
Big solid two-way defensemen. Uses his size and range very well. Very good skater, good pivots. Makes good decisions on both sides of the puck. Defends well, competes, takes the body, eliminates his man, can win battles. Good shot from the point. He has potential, playing against older players is giving him a lot of experience. Good mid to late pick in the draft with a chance to become a top-four defenseman.

Don't want to jinx Adam...but how long has it been since BG had 3 draft picks playing together?

TOO FREAKING LONG!!!!

We just missed it between 2008-09 and 2009-10. Spratt and JST didn't play together but both played with Eno.

Here's the list of all the draft picks if anybody wants to investigate further.

Draft guys don't want to play BG's schedule....too tough playing all those powerhouse programs.

Apollo,

You always bring such joy to the hockey threads. I get it. You like baseball and think hockey is a drain on the budget. If you don't like hockey, don't go. If you are unhappy with the schedule, don't go. I would not be surprised that with the next 5 years, the leagues will shift again and BG will be in a better place. The program is much better off now than it was six years ago and it will continue to improve. Back in the 1970's BG was in the upstart CCHA that later grew into a hockey power. I am going to support the program as I have for 40 years. Go BG!!!!

You are stupid. And wrong, given that we will have two, possibly 3 next season and numerous other strong pro prospects.

Haha...obviously I'm not the one whose stupid...you're the one who doesn't get the joke.

I'm sure all this talent will eventually get us back to the NCAA tournament....I mean by the law of averages we should get in sometime....there's only 59 teams

40 years is pretty amazing. I can't even imagine all the amazing moments you've seen!

He's seen things you wouldn't believe.

Suggestion: Put him on your ignore list. Your response is exactly why he does this.

I finally got motivated to do this. Much more pleasant forum afterwards!

Hockey fans are the best....they just refuse to understand that the program is avg...keep ignoring me...I'm one of the few on the forum that actually discuss hockey.

I'd be more than willing to discuss college hockey with you. However, by the comments and opinions you've expressed you've shown no real background or knowledge of college hockey in 2016. And rather than try to educate yourself you'd rather lay a heavy dose of smug to try and put yourself on a pedestal, talking down about a program that has made steady progress over the last seven years.
