We’re closing in on the day we officially announce our picks for all the National Junior Player of the Year nods, but with a good couple weeks or so before we make anything completely official, we wanted to hear what the fans had to say too.

After the jump you’ll find all the players and coaches we nominated based on what they did in 2008 (emphasis on 2008), and are asking you to let us know who you think deserves the nod out of the pool of players we like. Agree or disagree, we still wanna hear your voice.

The only thing we ask is, try and base your vote on what these guys did this past summer during the regular season, so basically don’t let their post-season performance this year or rep from past years cloud your judgement.

Check out the names below and let us know who you like for the five categories we’ve nominated some of this year’s best players and coaches for.

Then check back next week and we’ll letcha know who the fans dig in 2008.

Vote away…

Who will win the Minto Cup?
