Well, This Is Surreal
It was only 14 months ago that Eli 15.10 was playing for the Texas "A" Championship in hockey.Last weekend, he went to an invitation-only USHL Futures Camp with the Muskegon Lumberjacks.
He belonged, too. He didn't get get an invitation to the main camp, because a 15-year-old who's 5'11" 3/4 and 137 lbs. isn't physically viable in major juniors, but his level of play was very strong.
Just needs to keep working and getting better, and I think he might actually get a chance in a couple of years.
Plus, his team this upcoming season is looking downright beastly. Four kids made it to Nationals, and two others were drafted by the USHL.
Crazy times, for sure.
