Geezus for 2 guys over looked in thier 1st Q draft year and some of the scouting experts on this board said they had no chance in the Q even after burning up the Major Midget league.........well guess what.
#1 and 2 in last weeks Q stars of the week.

They are the Sedins of the Q! ^^ I've been very impressed by their play in the Memorial Cup last season and I was eager to see them play this year. And with their stats so far, I'm sure I'm not the only one!

In the next Q draft they said that they wanted to be drafted together or would play Jr A and persue NCAA.
Wildcats knowing local sells tix managed to draft them both. But they had many detractors since they weren't drafted in thier 1st year.

So they were overlooked cause they were like 5-6 in there draft year ?

They were about the same size they are now...they just lacked skating and its not like they burnt the league up as 15 year olds...they had about 20-25 pts in 35 games in AAA as 15's...not great but not bad either.

I actually did like them at 15...but figured they wouldnt get picked...at 16 they tore it up, but lump me in with the 'detractors'...i honestly didnt get the feeling their game would translate as well as it has. Not afraid to admit I was wrong.
