Subject: USA U-18 Team

If you can help, let me know your scouting progress per day.

I'm currently at 159%, let me know who you need.

im 102% per day. just message me with the ones u want me to scout

These are more or less the best 15 16 year olds I don't have scouted from non-league I.1 teams based on OR, AVQ, and facilities.

1) Tim Woodson
2) Layne Baldwin
3) Steven Carey
4) Tony Nielsen
5) Ron Deaton
6) Denny Alexander
7) Louis Meyers
8) Emmett Fellows
9) Endo Arnett
10) Dominick Beach
11) Greg Evans
12) Paul Moore
13) Ross Sisk
14) Armond Noble
15) Freddie Poe

Other than the above 15 players and the 10 I sent to Bulls4ever, I need 15 more I.1 players scouted, and that would be enough for now.

I'll get these 15, do you want their info as I get it or all at once?

I'd probably prefer to have the information sooner, but whatever would be more convenient for you would be fine since I'll be projecting all players to a common day.

The easiest way to send the information is to copy the player page from the player's name next to the scouting icon to down to the bottom of the player information and then paste into a private message.

I sent the 3 I happened to already have scouted. I'll get the others to you as I get them.

Thanks to both of you for the help!

I can help. I am scouting at 185% A Day.

Thank you everyone - I now have all the players I want to consider for this season covered.

Except for the players I am waiting on, I should have my excel rankings of the players I have scouted and the players I received the scouting information for updated by sometime tonight.

I'm putting Kevin Clinton up for sale tonight. I hope one of the USA teams get him.

i wish i could get him since i introduced him to the team but i am poor

It looks like I'll be back for next season.

As for my assistant manager, I'm going to do what I did a few seasons ago. I'll choose one primary assistant manager and give anyone who is interested a chance to be the assistant for two weeks during the weeks when there is just an exhibition game.

Anyone who is interested should have at least 100 experience and reply in this thread by day 14 of the hockey season. If there are too many people, the first people to post until space runs out will get the position for two weeks in order.

Preference for the primary position will be given to an experienced manager (maybe 300+) who would like to manage a national team in the future (though I believe there is a better opportunity with the senior team if you are interested in eventually managing the senior team) and anyone who has volunteered to help with any scouting in the past.

There is a Finnish manager asking about the position. I might give the primary position to that manager if nobody else is interested. The Finnish manager was an assistant with a senior national team last season.

I basically have the team chosen for this season, at least the 17 year olds and 18 year olds. There are a handful of players that could improve significantly by the end of the season. I plan to add the best 16 year old at each position again since there are a lot of extra slots in hockey (I will still leave 5 slots open to pick up promising players from teams about to fold and to pick up substitutes at the end of the season in case of injuries). I am waiting on the scouting information for a few more players before I will add any of them.

I will be posting rankings from my scouting, including the best 5 players at each position, the best 5 players at each position that I didn't add to the roster, the best 4 players under 18 at each position, and the best 4 players under 17 at each position (for goaltenders, it will be 3 at each position).

This is the team I plan to use for the World Championships. The 5th string players and third string goaltender could change by the end of the season depending on injuries and the relative progress of other players.
