In a post last month (The Buddy System), we reported that recent Avalanche draft choices Kevin Shattenkirk and Colby Cohen (photo, right)had been teammates on the on the '89 East Coast Selects, a top summer/spring tournament program headed by Travis Howe, Gordie's grandson. A recent nhl.com feature looks at the impact of the ECS program, examines Howe’s philosophy, and discusses ECS’ first crop of alumni drafted by the NHL, including Shattenkirk, Cohen, BC recruit Nick Petricki and Edmonton draft pick Sam Gagner.
Howe’s ECS Web site currently features photo essays on the development of Shattenkirk and Cohen. Future Terriers Corey Trivino (2008; and OPJHL/North Rookie of the Year) and Ethan Werek (2009), who will be teammates next season on the OPJHL Stouffville Spirit, also have participated in ECS programs.
