The best source for college hockey recruiting has been Heisenberg for like 20 years. Go here and there is a link to the 2025 page too.

Committed to Michigan this morning. Really strong class with Hurlbert joining Nyman and Valentini.

Rough start at the NTDP. Only 17’s forward to not get a point so far 4 games in.

After watching some of the games, I think that he's getting a lot of bad puck luck. He's one of the best players for his NTDP year. I have a few questions about how he projects to pro hockey, but he's making a lot happen and the puck isn't going in the net. He has fantastic 1v1 puck skills, and can pull pucks through defenders and make them miss with the best of them. His skating is more slippery than fast, although I don't think he skates bad for 5'11 176. He plays center early this season. I think he has a chance to stick at center, but it's not a certainty. Decent hockey sense. More of a shooter than passer, but the true scoring skills, both shooting and passing, are a little questionable. He seems more like a puck handler than a scorer, if that makes sense. I would classify him as a likely first rounder, but I don't see it as a certainty. He's probably a rough projection like a Frank Nazar, but we could also be talking about him as a second or third round pick and I wouldn't be shocked.

Any chance he goes WHL?

Why would he?
