Myles Rumsey

Prospect Grade: 5.5 C  (About Prospect Grades)

History

There were very few bright spots for the 2004-05 edition of the Swift Current Broncos, a club that finished third to last in the entire Western Hockey League. One of them, though, was draft eligible defenseman Myles Rumsey. Rumsey, in his second full season with the Broncos, finished with six points in just 57 games, a result of injury. Despite the low point production, Rumsey was not only given the Broncos Tom Ham Memorial Trophy as the team's top defenseman, but was also the recipient of the Coach's Award.

Although a tough, scrappy defenseman, Rumsey was thrust into an enforcer's role after Matt Trojovsky was dealt from the club. It was a role that Rumsey had trouble filling, but welcomed, as he tried to fulfill a leadership role bestowed on him when given the third alternate captain's letter.

2006-07: His season was ended in the WHL playoffs by a major knee injury.

Unsigned by the Flames in 2007.

Talent Analysis

Scout #1: I don't think that he holds a lot of potential at the professional level. Quite possibly the only reason he may have looked good in Swift Current was because everyone else just looked so bad.

Scout #2: He plays tough, but doesn't play any bigger than he already is. The roles he was put into in Swift Current really didn't help his development much, either. Granted, he was a team leader on the ice, but he just didn't seem up to the challenge of becoming a go-to guy.
