The rosters for the 2011 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game will be announced today via a conference call.
The annual game features the top-40 draft eligible prospects that play in the Canadian Hockey League. The two-day event begins on January 18 at the Air Canada Centre with a skills competition with the game being played the following evening.
A few Saint John Sea Dogs should be on the list. Strong candidates include Nathan Beaulieu, Jonathan Huberdeau, Zach Phillips, and Tomas Jurco. Wildcards include Ryan Tesink, Scott Oke, and Guillaume Cloutier.
Saint John’s ‘big four’ prospects of Beaulieu, Huberdeau, Phillips, and Jurco are all projected by most draft rankings to go within the first two rounds of the 2011 National Hockey League Entry Draft in June.
Willy Palov of the Red Line Report tweeted this morning that the publication has Huberdeau ranked at 22, Jurco at 29, Phillips at 40, and Beaulieu at 51.
