Prospect Guide to the Comets Invitational

If you get up near St. Cloud this weekend check out the prospects at the Minnesota Comets Invitational. There are several you can see at various age levels and there are even some pretty strong players from outside of Minnesota coming to the event.
We shall start with the seniors of 2009. I have a feeling that a few more will pop up but here are the top five seniors that are expected to be in uniform this weekend. But don't be surprised if Jordair Jett shows up after his all star game is over. There could also be a very strong Cooper presence from their 09 class.

A little to early for that and those rankings will come later. Plus there are players that may belong on a top 40 in the event but I haven't seen many of the other rosters and or seen some of them play.
