After two seasons of junior hockey with New Jersey Jr. Titans, defenseman Brad Zona(4) looks ready to head to his college commitment, US Army West Point Black Knights for 2021/2022.

The fairly big looking 6’1″ 205 lbs. blue liner played three years at Cushing Academy, excelling as a senior scoring 5 goals  and 17 assists in 31 USHS-Prep games.

He would sign on in the NAHL at the end of high school to get started with a first goal in 6 appearances.

Maybe not exactly the biggest scorer, the 20-year old has great on ice accountability, running a +22 rating, then +11 in 2020/2021 and will be a hard to get through in Atlantic Hockey.

He plays no games as a freshman, so enters the transfer portal and heads to Endicott College Gulls, where in the current frame as a junior he looks to post his best college totals yet with 1 goal and 2 assists in 9 games with a +6 rating.

Thunder Hockey Club 1st year center Jory Veenstra(92) has 1 goal and 4 assists in 17 games this season and commits to close by Southern New Hampshire University Penmen for 2025/2026.

The 6′ 170 lbs. forward raised his game from a NA3HL season, where he scored like crazy with 24 goals and 26 assists in 45 contests.

From Kansas City, MO, the 19-year old will help his new college Northeast10 team score goals.

Tufts University Jumbos‘ sophomore left wing Jon Horn(8) is off to a hot D3 start after coming over from limited usage at UMASS-Lowell Riverhawks last season.

The 6’1″ 190 lbs. forward only ever played 5 games with his old school, scoring an assist.

From Southbury, CT, he did 1 NAHL and 1 BCHL frame before committing.

The 22-year old plays with a lot of and looks like he has found his spark.

University Of New England Nor’easters‘ 2nd year, graduate left wing Garrett Devine(28) came over after limited usage in 3 years at Providence College Friars.

The 6’1″ 205 lbs. forward popped out 11 goals and 7 assists in 30 games with a +10 rating as a senior.

In 10 games through the current frame he has 2 goals and 3 assists.

He did just 1 USPHL/NCDC season with South Shore Kings, then sat a year before heading to his 1st school.

The 26-year old from Windsor, CO is looking right at home playing D3 hockey.

He finishes up with school and it’s time to turn pro and he signs an ECHL deal with the team closest to where he played his college hockey, Maine Mariners.

In 6 games, he comes away with a first assist and is asked to return for his official rookie season in a Mariners‘ jersey.

After 11 games with no points, he is released and before he can even report to another new club, is signed by Bloomington Bison to an spc for 2024/2025.

Curry College Colonels‘ senior left wing Alex Duncan(7) looks set to surpass scoring numbers he set as a freshman at UMASS-Boston Beacons, where he got 6 goals and 8 assists in 24 games.

He somewhat oddly transferred early late season, coming up for 1 goal and 5 assists in 16 games.

The very big 6’4″ 229 lbs. forward has 3 goals and 1 assist in 8 games with a +2 rating.

He never scored too crazy through 2 seasons of junior hockey, but we think the 24-year old from Andover, MA is eyeing a breakout.

 

Worcester State University Lancers‘ freshman defenseman Cam Quigley(23) himself a 1st D3 college hockey goal and 2 assists in 7 outings already this season.

The 5’10” 165 lbs. blue liner ascended his game from 25 USPHL Premier to signing with Thunder Hockey Club for 16 NCDC appearances.

He scored pretty big for South Shore Kings with 3 goals and 18 assists before moving up.

From Quincy, MA, the 19-year old is settling in well pretty quickly.

13th year left wing Jerry D’Amigo(74) stays in DEL for a 2nd straight season, but leaves an alright frame with Düsseldorfer EG to sign with rivals Loewen Frankfort for 2022/2023.

He briefly returned home for a season, signing with Orlando Solar Bears after his 1st pair of years in Germany’s top league, which followed a some ok frames in Liiga, where he split time with a couple teams.

The 5’11” 201 lbs., originally a 2009 Toronto Maple Leafs‘ 6th round NHL draft pick (#158 overall) is bit streaky scoring, but did manage 10+ goals 4 times in the AHL and once hit 20 with 6 seasons of 10+ assists to go along with.

At 31-years old, the Binghamton, NY native, who only did 1 year at RPI Engineers, lightly up Atlantic Hockey, is likely pretty happy to still be signing good contracts.

After 4 seasons in Germany and 2 in Finland, it’s time to come back and sign with a team that has some sunny weather going for it year round, agreeing to terms with Jacksonville Icemen for the rest of 2023/2024.

He has a decent season, leading in the ECHL, but is ready for more adventures overseas and signs with a 3rd new league, the tough to play Slovak Extraliga, signing with HK 32 Liptovsky Mikulas.
