Sullivan Mack named Prep Player of the Year by Neutral Zone

Nice to see that not only can he score, but he plays a 200 foot game. Should fit right in!

I played around on the Neutral Zone webpage to find out about Mack's school, Kimball Academy.  It seems they have an assistant coach named...Matt Underhill!

Oh sweet Jesus, there's another Fusco coming to Bright.

Yeah, I saw that, too.

Makes it easier to know who to despise, tho.

Looks like a '21 commit; he'll be 21 years old that September.

Is he viewed as a Galadja successor or a depth goalie.

Ian Shane? Nothing gets past him.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

Shane!  Come back, Shane!

Given that he plays in the USHL, hard to imagine he won't at least compete for the job. I know our other goalie recruit, Joe Howe, was highly recruited (he chose Cornell over BC), so he might be the front runner.

IIRC Ben Scrivens was supposed to stand in the shadows.

Chicago Steel interview with Ian Shane, including one video clip.  
The team stat sheet shows him with two assists for the year.  He got less than half the starts, splitting time with a Swede who is commited to Maine.  goalie stats
They play a few miles from our home, so I look forward to checking him out next year.

The Sun's article on the incoming recruits.

I wasn't sure if Dan McIntyre would be part of this class, but his BCHL profile page shows him as a 21-22 recruit. He'll be a 21-year-old freshman, which while isn't our recent norm but isn't unprecedented.

Although this class is small (as it should be given the number of returnees), the guys coming in look solid. I especially expect Rego to step in and contribute on the blue line, as he looks to be in the Kaldis-Malinski mold. My sense is Penney is may be similar to guys like Bauld and Betts, and will be strong on the PK. Schaefer said during the town hall that O'Leary is similar to Donaldson. Not sure he's quite the scorer as Cam, but we'll see how that plays out.

I thought we might get 5, with Barron all but certainly leaving and Song apparently not making the transition to D-1.

This is a Sun article, not the official announcement. I wouldn't be surprised to see another player especially if Barron does leave.
