The 2019 USA Hockey Select 17 Player Development Camp at Northtown Center in Amherst, N.Y., showcased many of the top 2002-born forwards in the United States, sans those on the NTDP.

From the camp, 13 forwards were chosen to represent USA Hockey on the 2019 U.S. Under-18 Men’s Select Team that will compete at the Hlinka Gretzky Cup in Slovakia and Czech Republic from Aug. 5-10.

The forwards at this age group are deeper and more talented in general than the defensemen. There are a few forward prospects who project to be top-two round picks come the 2020 NHL Entry Draft next June in Montreal.
