Nathan Dell
I loved what I saw from him in the Michigan Developmental Hockey League (MDHL) this fall. Dell can fit into just about any role you need him to play, and play with a wide range of other player types as well.
Read MoreToby Perrault
One of the players I’m most excited to see this season. He was solid during his sophomore year and showed signs of being a bonafide stud this fall. A big year from Perrault could propel him into statewide conversation as a top defenseman in the Class of 2026.
Read MoreCam Staskowski
Surgery sidelined him for much of the offseason, but make no mistake, Staskowski was one of the most impactful sophomores in high school hockey last season. He led CVU with 44 points, forechecked his ass off and his effort in all three zones was evident.
Read MoreCam Gagnon
He’s got good size and decent skates, but what stood out most was his instincts in the offensive zone. Gagnon finds the soft areas and keeps his momentum going towards the net, making him a constant scoring threat.
Read MoreCully Hayes
He’s played every minute of Eskymo hockey for the last two seasons as the only goalie on the roster. Hayes has good size, listed at 6-foot, and very athletic in net. Fall hockey with the 16U Wisconsin Windigo in the North American Prospects Hockey League (NAPHL) has him ready for a strong junior year.
Read MoreTevin Stukel
The embodiment of scrappy, Stukel scored 13 goals and 24 points as a freshman for the Bulldogs. He spent this offseason skating in the North American Hockey League (NAHL) Austin Bruins’ main camp, and scored eight points in eight games playing for the organization’s 18U team this fall.
Read MoreGavin Winterstein
A big, powerful forward who can snap shots off in mid-stride. I like the way he stays on top of the play too, rarely out of position. Winterstein produces in bunches too, with 19 career multi-point games in two seasons.
Read MoreLandon Smith
Last winter, I saw a good-sized sophomore who was pretty strong and displayed great effort throughout the rink, for a sub-.500 team. Smith validated those claims by being a top performer in the Michigan Developmental Hockey League (MDHL) this fall, with 17 points in 12 games. I can’t wait to see what he does next,…
Read MoreWill Young
He faced 30 or more shots in 9 of his 13 starts last season. Young saw a lot of work as a sophomore, and followed that up by being the Michigan Developmental Hockey League’s (MDHL) 16U tournament team goalie.
Read MoreConnor Arko
Played 18U AAA this fall with the Wisconsin Windigo, and finished second on the team in scoring with six points in eight games. This coming after he finished second on the Gremlins in scoring as a sophomore with 13 goals and 41 points. Arko is a stellar skater with great jump off draws and on…
