Excelsiors Protect Juniors to build the Future

Excelsiors will expect a boost up front next season from the protected players from the 2011 Junior A Excelsiors.  Michael Burke and Cameron Flint are those players. Burke led the OLA in scoring last year, outpacing big names like Johnny Powless and Kedoh Hill by totalling 45 goals and 84 assists for 129 points. Flint didn’t play with the Junior Excels in 2011, but he had already established himself as a solid forward in the league in 2010 and is a strong contributor to the Denver University offense.

At the draft the Excelsiors made a deal with KW. Brampton traded 2012 3rd, 4th, and 5th round picks to KW for KW’s 2013 2nd round pick. 2012 is forecasted to be a very strong draft year of Juniors.

With their 2nd round selection this year Brampton stayed close to home and drafted Excelsior Junior Kyle Andrews.

    Sent to Roger Communty TV Peel.: Absolutely terrible coverage of the Mann Cup by Rogers. Brampton Excelsiors and the national lacrosse championship deserve better. These are dedicated, poorly paid athletes who travelled halfway across the country to win the championship in the other team’s arena in five games (they would have won in four but seven of their players couldn’t get there because of their fulltime jobs). Do only the millionaire franchises warrant media attention? The Excelsiors are five years older than the Leafs, a successful, storied team playing for a trophy that has been awarded since 1910. We have a national lacrosse champion in Brampton? A real pity. A brief spot on your sportscast is fitting? There should be reciprocal arrangements made with cable companies across Canada to cover and share sports, cultural and social events with hometowns. Are you guys getting too big to respond to the obvious vaccuum in cooperative, intra-community programminng? Is there such a thing? Time to get on it. This isn’t just TSN and Sportsnet’s turf. With some effort and coordination you should be able to do it better than them. Malcolm Hamilton. Brampton, ON.
