I’m hoping to have my annual transfer portal spreadsheet/database up within the next week - stay tuned !!!

Before the season I had Abbey Murphy as my fav to win the Patty Kaz but I feel like it's gotta be KK Harvey now.

Also - shoutout Kahlen Lamarche who is having a monster season for QU. Not sure if she'll beat out any of the big-name WCHA players but she's been awesome.

Sioux Falls is currently the top team in the Western Conference.

Jakobsen’s teammate there - Joey McGraw - is also committed to SCSU

Danish defender Markus Jakobsen has committed to St. Cloud State.

The 19-year-old RHD started the season in the BCHL and the moved up to the USHL. Wore an ‘A’ for Denmark at World Juniors.

Makena Underwood is leaving behind an incredibly impactful legacy at Farmington High School.

The senior goaltender was recently a finalist for the Jori Jones award and is set to play Division I hockey this upcoming fall.

ICYMI: My feature on Totino-Grace grad Tre Peck and his journey to Spruce Grove, where he leads his team in scoring. He recently committed to West Point.

Story: www.apx-hockey.com/news-detail-69

Also notably - Preds prospect Adam Ingram has only played in about half of the games all season for St. Cloud State and has been scratched the other half of the time. He started the year on team academic suspension as well so clearly something is up. Wish all the best for him.

Yan Shostak, who was in net last night for St. Cloud State and got the win, not even dressed tonight. He looked like he may have gotten injured late in the game but finished it out, hope all is okay...

Max Rider talked with me about making a USHL roster as a 17-year-old undrafted prospect out of camp and why he's excited to get out to Kalamazoo in the future. ⤵️
