Kamminga had a real good offseason, and is in line for a significant role in the Bulldogs offense. Seven goals and 12 points as a junior; that production could more than double considering his size, release and grit around the net.

He’s totaled 33 varsity wins for the Muskies, with a career .926 save percentage. LaPorte is a good sized goalie with a high compete level, giving Portage a chance on a nightly basis.

A do-it-all guy for the Generals, playing wherever he’s needed in the lineup. Teams know he’s the No. 1 threat, yet no one can seem to contain Beckwith with a point in 24 of 25 career games.

A work-hard who stops and starts on pucks, and when he decides to go, there’s real intent and purpose behind his movements. Mounted a 14-game point streak as a junior before ending with 20 goals and 34 points.

Leone is a cerebral player, smart on the back end making educated plays with the puck on his stick. I like his grit and compete in the corners as well, willing to really engage and battle with opposing forwards.

Universally loved by every coach I talk to. He’s big, solid on his skates and tactical on his assignments. A four-year guy for the Spartans, having scored 20 or more points in every season.

He’s not the flashiest or the most fastest or most skilled, but Esch’s work ethic and compete level is fantastic. His value in the Scots’ lineup can’t be measured in goals and assists but he’s certainly the high-energy guy they need.

Dwarzski is a third-year defender having posted back-to-back 30-point seasons. He was also a member of Team Michigan last spring and may once again be considered a top D in the state this winter.

A compact, yet athletic second-year starter for the Eagles. Holmes competed in the MDHL this fall and enters his senior season with a career .936 save percentage, ready to backstop an Ike program on the rise.

Plays with good pace and competes in all three zones. A lot could be expected of Bjornson — just 19 career points in two seasons — after East graduated its top five scorers; he’s in line for an increased workload.
