You don’t find scouts, they find you.
Players are drafted from college the same way they are drafted from junior. Scouts see a player play, grade him, enter him into the Central Scouting database. Over the course of his career, as scouts rate him, he develops a rating.
The current ranking system has every player in North America who is 14 or older and playing Junior C, Tier II Junior A, andTier I Junior A in Canada, CIAU in Canada, NCAA Div I, II, and III in the US, the USHL, and several less vital development programs. There are over 30,000 people in the database when you include Europeans prospects.
A lot of players are drafted previous to they go to college, due to the fact that they turn 18 previous to classes start. The player and the team will influence if they are to play a couple of years in college or go to a semi-pro team so they can develope. Very few players make the jump aptly to the NHL.
As far as finding a scout in Charlotte, the only advice I can give you, is if you are a excellent enough player they will find you.
Some NHL teams do hold open training camps.
These are camps to stock the minors, ECHL and lower levels.
If you reckon are excellent enough try that or find some lower level league and try out there. If you have talent some one will find you.
