no if he played PIHL as a freshman at that size he would get his head taken off by a big as senior head hunting. pihl is alot like the goon league ( the FED)  

You realize that there are kids at 16u AAA that are 6’3”+ and they are great skaters and can’t hit him? It’s possible, sure - unlikely at best… doesn’t make a difference because we’ll never see it. PPE is too “elite” to allow their kids to play with the peasants. 

The PIHL is no where even close to the level that PPE #18 plays against. He's playing an entire year up and still commands the ice against the best in 06 AAA. There is a ton of hype around him but, he's proven himself many times over. If PPE 18 played PIHL he would dominate every game without a doubt.  I dont really have a dog in this fight but, anyone saying that SHAHA 15 and PPE 18 are in the same ball park are mistaken. PPE 18 needs to get bigger and stronger. thats the only knock I can see on him.

PPE #18 is an absolute nightmare for any team he is the #2 2007 in USA/Canada. Game #1 Friday Tabia it looked was trying to match #15 line up with PPE #18 but had a hard time with the home last change. I think PPE #18 & SHAHA #15 both had about 2 or 3 primary assists. At Bethel SHAHA #15 line matching up against PPE #18 was the difference. SHAHA 2nd line had both goals. Not only did SHAHA win you could clearly see they have much room to grow as some of the forwards & Defense you could tell were intimidated & that should not happen when they get to MID-AMS. PPE #18 is probably one of the best if not the best hockey players to ever come out of Western PA but I can tell you 15 & 11 on SHAHA are not as far away as what I thought before watching that match up. I would not be shocked if SHAHA starts out top 10 & finish top 20. PPE still should crack top 10 & Barons are in a league of there own.   

This is pretty much spot on. PPE #18 is an unreal talent. SHAHA's additions over the summer made them more than a 1 trick pony. Will be an interesting to see it play out this season!
