DU recruit Joe Colborne was featured on this week's edition of The Hockey News "Hot List."7. Joe Colborne, C – Camrose Kodiaks (AJHL): So for the scouts out there who don’t like this kid, let’s go to the scoreboard: He led his team to a league title, followed by a Doyle Cup win over the Penticton Vees, then went undefeated in the RBC Cup before running into the dazzling goaltending of Taylor Nelson and losing by a single goal in the final. Am I missing anything? Draft eligible in 2008.

I would venture a guess and say that some scouts don't like the kid because he decided on the NCAA path as opposed to MJ.
If you've got 10 minutes read this facinating article on an NHL scout from the blog On Frozen Pond.

I think most NHL scouts would sell their mothers to find the next great prospect. If some NHL team draftes Colborne 10 spots early and he becomes a "star" it can cement your reputation for years.
How smart do the Avs look for stealling Stastny in the 2nd Round when he was projected as 3rd-4th rounder.
Go Bruins!!! They'll need his scoring!
