The Open Period Schedule – Week 2
The Open Period must go on for the sake of the seniors-to-be. We spent weekend one featuring 26 teams and we will continue evaluating talent this weekend as well.
How are we going to accomplish this? Once again NHR has collected games of some of the state’s best junior prospects and we are going to review them throughout the weekend. You will see our thoughts of the players on twitter, you will see highlights of the players on twitter (maybe not the clearest video but video nonetheless), and next week we will review what we watched Monday through Thursday like we would following any weekend event we covered. Note, these are games that I was not able to see this year, but will be able to now.
Minnesota, here is our spring open period schedule for the second weekend (times are subject to change based on the four children living in my house and availability of that video):
