Martin, Comrie, Nichols

Top 10 in NA (not in order)

Martin (Toronto Jr. Canadiens)
Giugovaz (Toronto Jr. Canadiens)
Vierkant (???) Played with team Maryland last year
Leger (Don Mills Flyers)
Nichols (St-Catharines Jr. Falcons) but apparently left?
Dekort (Markham Majors)
Comrie (LA Selects)
MacDonald (York Simcoe Express)
Veres (Weschester Express)
Jenkins (Detroit Honeybaked)

Actually a pretty good top ten list....have seen them all play and couldn't argue with any of the selections.

how about the two EMC goalies. definetly in the top 10

Elgin goalies aren't eve top 10 in their league

You may want to take a look at some of the goalies that are on the bottom teams, goalies on those teams are much better as they get over 30 shots a game. It's easy to look good on a team that has great offence and defence, try making those 2nd or 3 saves.

You are right on with goalie's on weaker teams could be stronger. There's a huge difference in development from goaile's facing 30+ shots versus 10+ games and a strong team in front to make you look good.

True the workload will be higher on a weaker team but I disagree with the poster who talks about second and third shot stops. If they are an elite goalie there won't be as many of these situations since they will have good rebound control (even on a weaker team).

Good goalies come from both "good" and "bad" teams. Kids like Leger, Martin and Giugovaz come from top teams and they get at least 20 shots a game. Their teams need them badly. Kids like Dekort get 25-35 shots a game and steals games. He's the intire team, but Dekort won't get deep in the playoffs and lost in the top 16 at the Marlies tournament, therefore, wont get many "HUGE" games. You could argue which is better for goalies, but there's no real answer.

EMC goalies will get drafted high. Big and quick

LOL, Elgin just scores lots of goals, its not that their goalies are good.

EMC goalies are terrible.

There are many goalies out there that are being vastly overlooked. A strong team portrays a strong goalie but put that goalie on one of the weaker teams and they will not stand out. Not to say that they are poor tenders rather stating that a goalie on a weaker team may just show to be stronger. Goalies are either loved or hated and the interesting, perhaps somewhat sad point, is that it is the adults that share that view. Kids know if that have a decent goalie no matter where they sit in the standings.

Both Windsor goalies are good, Sun County's Goalie

both EMC goalies are very good. should go high in the draft

EMC goalies are a joke.

Hunter Garlent is probally the best goalie in North America

DMF Goalie is overrated. Many in the league much better than him. He is not in the top 5 of the GTHL.

me

(No Preticular order)


1. Martin (JRC)
2. Sharp (SCC)
3. Leger (DMF)
4. Veres (Westchester)
5. Nichols (St. Catherines)Maybe not anymore?
6. Dekort (Markham Majors)
7. Fortinos (Marlies)
8. Jenkins (Honeybaked)
9. MacDonald (YSE)
10. Giugovaz (JRC)

..

(No Preticular order) <--nice spelling <br>
1. Martin (JRC) For sure. JRC fall to mid-pack without him. The rest have catching up to do.

2. Sharp (SCC) Kidding? No dad.
3. Leger (DMF) Your kid is ok Dad, but other DMF goalie is better!
4. Veres (Westchester) Not bad. Top 10? Maybe
5. Nichols (St. Catherines)Maybe not anymore? Yes (and I'm not his dad!)
6. Dekort (Markham Majors) Decent. Big, a little akward, but yes, top 10.
7. Fortinos (Marlies) Yes. But not as good as he used to be.
8. Jenkins (Honeybaked) For sure. This kid is good.
9. MacDonald (YSE) Come on?!? Seriously dad, other YSE kid is better.
10. Giugovaz (JRC) Still ok. Not sure if top 10. Used to be top 3.

Other decent ones from the top of my head that should probably be on list:
Cole (Clarington)
Lamanna (Ajax)
Short (Titans)
??? (Quinte bigger tender)
Battisti (Windsor)
Comrie (LA selects)
Kumar (Ottawa Senators)

+35 more from Quebec that are all better than any one of these guys!
They must be doing something right. They're cranking out the best goalies year after year.
Nobody ever hears about any of them, until they land in "the show".
How many goalies from Ontario are playing in NHL right now? Answer: Not enough in proper ratio to players.
Sorry to say, but we're really behind with our development of our young goalies in this province.

Every goalie that is repeatedly listed as 'the best' is on a top team. A top team is a top team mostly due to the talent of the players. It is very easy to look good as a goalie when you only see on average 15 shots a game. Teams with highly skilled players really do not put much effort into selecting a tender.
If you take a look at the tenders on the middle of the pack teams they are far better then the ones on the top.
Here is my 'top 3' (no particular order)and I am NOT the father of any of them, my son is not a goalie but a player, I used to be a tender back in my days and I help out on the bench. This is our second year with this team and I am making my picks based on the development that I have seen as we have played these teams this year and last.

Lammana (A/P) - definately not a top team but this kid continues to have a positve impact on the team

Sharp (SCC) - again not a top team but this kid has made a huge impact on the team this year. They compete with our team where as last year we walked all over them. The games that we have played them and a few I have watched in tournaments-this kid has made a difference.

Clarington goalie - does what he has to and does it very well. The teammates play a different game when this kid is in, they have the confidence in him which allows them to play a better game

Those 3 teams have made an improvement over the year. Tenders should not be considered top just because they play for a top team.

Come on Clarington goalie dad.
Nothing more obvious than mentioning all the other goalies by name and your kid as the Clarington goalie.

Why no mention of Wheaton WSR on this list?

2 weak ones yesterday

Both Windsor goalies are very very good!!

martin, leger, nichols

correction

not in any particular order

martin
giggy
perisanni
dekort
fontinos
strong
rossini
smith

we will see in a few years

we will see in a few years

Rossini. Ok dad!!! Haven't seen you play this year but you couldn't make any list last year

Let's do it by league:( no particular order):

GTHL
Martin ( Habs)
Dekort ( Majors)
Fontinos (Marlies)

OMHA
Nichols (Falcons...still there???)
McDonald ( Express)
Smith (Rangers)

USA
Comrie( Selects)
Veres ( Express)
Jenkins ( Honeybaked)

No disrespect to the Alliance, Northern Ontario and Ottawa District goalies...just haven't seen them enough to even make a worthwhile comment.All of the above have been seen a lot and are solid...

OMHA - Sharp

who does sharp play for?

If he is the one that plays for SCC he is good but i don't know about top 3

Let's do it by league:( IN ORDER):

GTHL

1.Martin (Habs) He and Giggy are the reason a marginally skilled team finishes in 2nd
2.Leger (DMF) Plays on a top team and brought for the first time good goaltending. Single-handedly brought team to 1st from 3rd in one year.
3.Perrisini (could argue 2nd considering he and even Abrams brought a talentless team to fourth place
4.Dekort (Majors) This team wouldn't even be in the playoffs without him
Honourable mentions would be Giggy, Abrams, Graham, Short, Fontinos, Welsh

OMHA
1.McDonald (Express)
2.Bonsignore (Halton)
3.Smith (Rangers)
Honourable mentions would be Nichols since he's AWOL, Silva

USA
1.Jenkins ( Honeybaked)
2.Comrie( Selects)
3.Veres ( Express)

^^^^ Agreed ^^^^
But I wouldn't put "in orders" just yet, these things change over night.

And Jenkins gets how many shots per game - 10 maybe? ok then

Same with McDonald - how many shots ? Next year you better be on the team that gets more then 10-15 shots against ...

How about making a lsit of the real top 3 goalies? 95% of the goalies listed are on top teams where they are only seeing about 10 shots per game.

Bateman, Garlent, Santini

Disagree with other DMF goalie being better than Leger. He got 2 stars against titans and lost both.Leger got 4 starts and went 4-0. And no I'm not his dad! I still think Jr c goalie is tops.

You missed one fact and that is that Don Mills had 3 Goals For in those 2 games and that's not going to win you any games in the playoffs.

Daddy Leger face the fact your kid is a good 8th place goalie

he stands behind these players in no particular order in the GTHL and I have not mentioned any goalies in the OMHA otherwise he would be behind another eight. Quick pimping

Martin
Short
Giggy
Fontinos
Perisanni
Abramins
Mastro
Dekort

the only problem with this list is all the best goalies are from the omha so these guys would be ranked in the top thirty not top ten and since scouts do not waste there time on here your little goalies should do well in the beer league

Top 5 in the GTHL in order this time:

Martin
Perisini
Leger
Giggy
Dekort

10:32 not sure which clarington goalie you are talking about the one who gave up 10 tonight or the one who gave up 7 seven last night.

Has anyone see the Stevens kids play? OMHA AA Richmond Hills Stars, hear he's good but don't know anything about them and they're season is done.

Mr. Stevens, Im sure your son is very good... for AA.
The thing is, if any of the top AAA goalies played AA, they would have GAA's below 1.00, no matter where they played.
If your son played AAA, he could be decent. But nothing special..

going into a big year, who are some top goalies?

Let's do it by league:( IN ORDER):

GTHL

1.Martin (Habs) He and Giggy are the reason a marginally skilled team finishes in 2nd
2.Leger (DMF) Plays on a top team and brought for the first time good goaltending. Single-handedly brought team to 1st from 3rd in one year.
3.Perrisini (could argue 2nd considering he and even Abrams brought a talentless team to fourth place
4.Dekort (Majors) This team wouldn't even be in the playoffs without him
Honourable mentions would be Giggy, Abrams, Graham, Short, Fontinos, Welsh

What about Graham (DMF), Morse/Rossi (Kings) to name a few? Perrisini/Abrams...really. Watched Sens and goalies were hot and cold. Average at best on a team that plays tight D and traps.

Find out the 3 tenders on all the U16 teams and you will have your top goalies by league

re: 907

agree with martin and giggy

do not agree that leger was solid, graham appeared to be the better one

dekort agree

honourable mentions: Fotinos, Short, Perrisini, Abrams, Welsh

GTHL

1.Martin (Habs) He and Giggy are the reason a marginally skilled team finishes in 2nd AGREE
2.Leger (DMF) Plays on a top team and brought for the first time good goaltending. Single-handedly brought team to 1st from 3rd in one year? Please! He is decent but he did not do this singlehandedly. It was a team effort no individuals here.
3.Perrisini (could argue 2nd considering he and even Abrams brought a talentless team to fourth place? Again, it was not an individual effort
4.Dekort (Majors) This team wouldn't even be in the playoffs without him...so? They still finished nowhere with him. If it weren't for his size he wouldn't even be mentioned on this list. He is decent but Giggy and Graham are better

Sudbury goalie who won top goalie at OHF's should be on the list.

Sudbury goalie who won top goalie at OHF's should be on the list.

he is on NOHA list which has been out for three weeks...time to wake up

3 goailies on the U16 omha team. 1 should be there, the others I gotta admit Im scratching my head>

ok kid who do you think deserves to be there?

ok so do tell us which goalie should be there? my guess is that you are a disgruntled parent of a goalie that did not get chosen. That or you wont name the 'one' because you don't want your kid to get ripped on.
Do you really not get the amount of evaluation and assessment that has been done on ALL the boys chosen for this team. The 3 goalies that were chosen are ALL great choices

big emc goalie will go in the top 3 rounds.

you guys arent scouting the kids, so shut the F U C K up and let the kids play do the talking, bitching to eachother on who u think is the best will not make them the best. figure it out.

The above poster must be the father of the little EMC goalie

GTHL
Martin

ETA
Sharp

SCTA
Nichol

What about Briggs off Cow? He is not on a good team. He faces a average of 28 shot a game

5:14...I would say your post is bang on.

don`t you mean nichols from OFSAA..NOT SCTA.

Graham on DMF by far....he is easily the best at this age group...wait and see....

big emc goalie will be #1

Graham is pretty decent, I will give that to you ok dad. But just remember it is easy to look good when you are on a very decent team

Sharp should stay off here.Its not helping his case.

Someone is bitter. The only people on here are the ones who think there kid is the best. I highly doubt any of the 'chosen' kids are on here pimping themselves-they don't need to be

I am not to familiar with Sharp but I doubt the kid is on here draawing attention to himself. I looked through the threads and he is mentioned only a few times. The ones who should stay off here, who are defiinately not helping themselves are the ones who's names are mentioned over and over and over and OVER again.

T.Wheaton will be the 1st or 2nd goalie drafted from the Alliance; hands down

Okay Dad!

Windsor's big goalie is better than Wheaton, will go higher in the draft

Definetely not Big EMC goalie, cant win the big games! Be lucky if he goes past 12th.

Windsors big goalie is NOT better then Wheaton, he used to play every game in net now he does not, shouldn't that tell you something??

They switch every other game anyway,So whats your point,

we've played against Windsor for many years now, Big goalie is definately BETTER! Not impressed by Wheaton at all, Dad is definately over rating him here...thanks Mr W

the point is the big goalie used to get ALL the games, now he doesn't.

did either of the windsor goalies make the u17?? if not who did??

how many games did TW Win against EMC? Since he played all 6 games then?

What is the story with Nichols? I hear he is pretty good and I also heard he wasn't with St. Kitts until the OMHA's. Where was he and why did another team let him go

L 1 - 4 2010-01-30 Elgin Middlesex Chiefs 95 AAA
L 2 - 4 2010-01-31 Elgin Middlesex Chiefs 95 AAA
L 1 - 5 2010-02-02 Elgin Middlesex Chiefs 95 AAA

4 goals scored in 3 games for Windsor... I will bet the scores indicate that goaltending wasnt the issue

so 13 goals against in 3 games? What about the 3 regular season games? Did W play all 6 games?

except for one and the big goalie tied that on the last game of a road trip. and the bigger goalie used to play all of games because his backup was not decent like wheaton

so Wheaton lost every 5 games last season against Elgin because he is decent? LOL - why don't you think before you speak, you are sounding dumber by each post

Must be the big goalies parents on here defending him. was the big goalie at the camp??

Big goalie dad would not post on this BS site.
He has nothing to defend any way

Yeah okay you obviously don't know him that well.

When the big goalie goes first in the draft, we will have alot to laugh about, thanks for giving us this opportunity Mr W

oh! oh! Trouble in Windsor goalie land!

FYI 952 I am not Mr. W, just a fan of the better goalie.

yeah okay, keep telling yourself that

Then do both goalies a favor and shut up! you are make the Wheaton kid look bad!

LMAO !!

Stop the only top goalie is Nichols. Ask his dad.
Are all you goalie dads nuts or what?

Really?? Really!!!!!!!!!! The best, wow.

the big goalies dad would not care what is said on this site, I know him very well.
and it is quite obvious who is posting about TW. he is the one who spells his kid name wrong in every thread! both father and son need to think before they post!

: )

Seriously who are these goalies you are talking about?

Hart - Burlington

Being a so called 'top' goalie now at MM does not mean anything. There are no top goalies or players at this age period.

on Mr Scout

ok Mr Scout

Who the hell cares? Parents dont chose who makes the O-Show or not , jesus christ , if parents are making a top 10 list im making a top 10 list of the best nhl players and ill form a team. are you guys wacked? WHO CARES /





Mitch Santilli is the best "AAA" player in the World hmm , who cares bout OHL until the Europeans come in and crank your son Jonny into the boards? FEEEL IT

Sure,they allways beat the Canadian junior team and the Olympic team

Ok with all the hype with forwards and defence which goalie going into 2011 is looking good?

JCole from Clarington is the best in the ETA

andrew hart from burlington most under rated goalie out there because of his size. Also have worked with Nichols, hardest working goalie I've seen on the ice in a while wouldnt be surprised if he's one of the top (if not to) goalie selected. Tremendous effort put into everything and high potential. As for hart he's a risk, his height is his dis-advantage but if he was taller he would get alot more attention wouldn't hurt for a team to take a chance on him.

Matrin and Nichol(most said 2 of the top 3 goalies) both work with ron mays, so does chris festerini(erie otters) and bryce o'hagan(petes) plus more ohl goalies. I think this is showing how well ron mays is developing goalies and getting them places (ohl, junior, eventually nhl and other elite leavels).

NOT ron mays

then you are his mom


nice pimp job

TE goalie is all show, without the team infront of him, average at best
