Sprong seems like a player who is only thinking on going to a few teams… He'll definetly have a shortlist. I'd assume he'll still easily be a first round pick, but like said he does have a bad attitude.
Daniel Bringing Attention to a pretty Strong Espoir team

having had the chance to see the Tigers play this season, I must say, Punch Imlach Reborn you are 100% correct.
That team goes way further than just Daniel, and it's not surprising to see the record they have

Yes they may be there to look at the young "jedi" Sprong, but you have to remember that there are 8 rounds where 15 year-olds can be taken now at the Q draft. This requires a better scouting job. So, scouts can no longer just go to the 2 or 3 midget espoir tournaments to scout the espoir kids. They have to grind it out at espoir games.
panning for gold.
I saw him play at the aaa tournament in Quebec City last November. This kid is a very skilled offensive player who no doubt will be a high first round pick.
I have a funny feeling that Sprong may pull a Duclair... Just a gut feeling, but I'm not positive. He seems like the type of player Roy would try to target.

You aren't the first to bring up that Sprong may go to the Remparts..
You could say Sprong got a bit of redemption last night, the LSL Lions were eliminated on home ice...
Sprong put up 104 points in just 30 games... Ridiculous.
Would anyone take him 1st ?
No, he will likely get picked 5th to 8th.
Jeremy Roy just had by far the best offensive Qc Midget AAA season for a 15 year old defenceman in the past 15 years. Beauvilier scored the most goals for a 15 year old forward in the past 15 years. The level of play is significantly higher in Midget AAA.
And Nicolas Roy, already 6'4" with loads of skills may go first overall when it is all said and done.

Sprong's going to be a steal, his stats shouldn't be overlooked IMO.
Jeremy Roy played a year up, as did Beauvillier so that certainly helps them, I really think Sprong will keep proving people wrong.
