After posting a huge session for South Shore Kings, scoring a mammoth 34 goals and 15 assists in 45 USPHL/NCDC games, right wing Timothy Heinke(21) is ready to commit to Quinnipiac University Bobcats for 2022/2023.
The 6’1″ 194 lbs. forward was always a decent scorer through USHS-Prep and 16U-18U AAA, but really found his footing in one year of junior hockey.
We’re making bets the 20-year old impacts the lineup as a freshman.
His use through 2 seasons is limited to just 16 games, which makes it tough to create momentum, but does come away with 3 assists and a +2 rating.
The Southington, CT native enters the transfer portal and will play his hockey next at Holy Cross College Crusaders and we are thinking Atlantic Hockey looks much different, better for the former junior hockey scorer.
He does score better, getting 12 goals as a junior and 11 assists in his senior frame that he takes to a 1st pro deal with South Carolina Stingrays.
We think he finds room with his style to score in the ECHL.
In 4 games, he doesn’t pick up a point, but is a 0 rating and will get a full look for his rookie season, 2026/2027 as a Stingrays.
Before the start of the new season, he is waived and picked up immediately by Jacksonville Icemen.
