Yale University Bulldogs‘ senior left wing Cole Donhauser(23) takes a new, modest college best scoring 6 goals and 7 assists in 27 games with a +1 rating on a terrible team to a 1st pro contract with Coventry Blaze for 2023/2024.

The 6′ 195 lbs. forward should find room in the EIHL to score more than he has in school.

From Kenmore, NY, he played only 1 BCHL season for Chilliwack Chiefs.

The 23-year old is likely ready to get started.

Through 7 games, he nets 2 assists, but may be yearning for hockey a little closer to home, so signs for the remainder of 2024 with Idaho Steelheads.

He lasts just 2 games there and is traded to Greenville Swamp Rabbits.

After a not so amazing 2023/2024, he signs on for what he hopes is his rookie season with Worcester Railers, 2024/2025.

He does come to play with his new club, scoring 10 goals and 19 assists in 71 games and is easily invited to return a Railers for 2025/2026.

Another 9 goals and 18 assists in 68 games and he is staying in a Railers jersey for 2026/2027.

Canisius College Golden Griffins‘ senior defenseman Robert Kincaid(14) scores a college best 4 goals and 11 assists in 33 games with a +6 rating that he takes to a 1st pro contract with Wichita Thunder.

The 6’2″ 185 lbs. blue liner has a 1st ECHL goal and 1 assist in 11 games, but has to work on that -7 rating.

He transferred from 1 uneventful year in only 8 games with no points at University Of Maine Black Bears.

From Barrhead, AB, the 24-year old did most of 3 AJHL seasons with Camrose Kodiaks, scoring 23 then 31 assists before school.

He scores a 1st league goal and 2 assists in 14 games and is rewarded with a new deal to stay a Thunder for 2026/2027.

Boston College Eagles‘ senior center Mike Posma(12) signs a pro deal with Wheeling Nailers for his rookie season, 2025/2026 after inking an ato to Florida Everlades, when tournament play concluded.

The 6′ 185 lbs. forward had 1 assist in 4 ECHL games.

In 18 games, this year he has a nice start 6 goals and 8 assists with a +10 rating.

From Pomona, NY, the 23-year old did 2 USHL campaigns before school.

He scores 13 goals and 13 assists in 46 games with a +19 rating to be an easy want to return a Nailers for 2026/2027.

SUNY Canton Roos‘ senior left wing Jordyn Mughal(13) signs a 1st pro deal with Twin City Thunderbirds.

In 2 FPHL games, he had no points before the season expired.

The 6’2″ 205 lbs. forward has never really been a goal scorer with his best college season as a junior, 2 goals and 2 assists.

For 2026/2027, he is traded and arrives with the new Stockton Thunder in a deal that includes his twin brother.

UMASS-Dartmouth Corsairs‘ senior left wing Tyler Stewart(44) had a college best 21 goals and 24 assists in 25 games.

The 6′ 181 lbs. forward signed a 1st pro deal with Knoxville Ice Bears, where he scored 2 goals and 3 assists in 8 SPHL games, but was oddly waived and picked up by Macon Mayhem, although wasn’t able to connect.

From Lower Burrell, PA, the 24-year old did 2 NAHL seasons before college and will need a new deal.

For 2026/2027, he re-signs to return to the Ice Bears and skate a full season.

2nd year left wing Colton Sipperly(26) returns from a successful rookie season swing through France3, scoring almost point-per-game numbers, he takes to a new contract for 2026/2027 with Fayetteville Marksmen.

The 5’10” 174 lbs. forward played 4 years at SUNY Canton Roos, leaving as a senior with a college hockey best 10 assists and 13 points.

From Tampa, FL, the 25-year old did 2 years of juniors before school and we think could strike well in the SPHL.

Merrimack College Warriors‘ senior defenseman Christian Felton(53) is looking like he is ready to set up a collegiate career best season, already 1 goal and 1 assist in 11 games.

He had 2 goals and 4 assists as highs last season.

The 6’1″ 195 lbs. blue liner from Medina, OH is maybe leaning in a little looking for scoring opportunities.

Transferring after 1 year at Bentley University Falcons, the 23-year old seems to have found his style in Hockey East play.

In his senior year, he would score new college bests 3 goals, 4 assists for 7 points, which he takes to a 1st pro contract, a 1-year NHL entry level deal with Vancouver Canucks.

He appears in only 13 games with affiliate Abbotsford Canucks and 7 in the ECHL before the injury bug takes him off his game.

For 2025/2026, he signs with Utah Grizzlies and should do really well.

He actually is loaned up to the AHL for 6 games, but is traded to Cincinnati Cyclones, where we think will continue good play.

For 3 games, he heads down, but is signed to a deal in the upper league for the rest of the current frame will be a Canucks.

Released, then traded to Cincinnati Cyclones, he gets 2 assists in 5 games, but he decides to head off to HockeyAllsvenskan and signs with Kalmar HC for 2026/2027.

Undrafted 6th year, left wing J.C. Campagna(93) comes off a season, where he skated only 4 ECHL games for Florida Everblades and Wichita Thunder, but mostly took 2020/2021 off.

He has played 171 games in the league, scoring 65 goals and 58 assists.

The 6’4″ 205 lbs. power forward played in three junior leagues (OJHL, OHL and QMJHL) before turning his sights on St. Thomas University Tommies for two years, then University Of Prince Edward Island Panthers for one before turning pro with Adirondack Thunder, potting 6 goals and 4 assists in 16 games.

Nothing strange about that, except the former Ohio Blue Jackets 16U AAA is a Dallas, TX native.

The 28-year old signs with Toledo Walleye for 2021/2022 and we think that could be a super-charged good choice to pocket some career point totals.

He actually switched out his signing to Allen Americans more than midway through the frame, scoring 10 goals and 5 assists in 21 games to agreeing to a new contract for 2022/2023 with Tulsa Oilers, which should be an awesome resting space for him.

Not exactly sure what happened in Oklahoma, but it wasn’t necessarily bad stats, yet he decides to switch things up big and leaves for HC Presov of Slovak Extraliga and already has 4 goals and 1 assist in 4 games, so must be liking it alright.

He actually scores 6 goals and 6 assists in 17 games, but maybe his -10 wasn’t all that great, so left for DEL2, signing with EHC Freiburg, maybe taking it up a little in the playoffs.

For 2023/2024 though, he decides to return and signs with Utah Grizzlies.

He played in only 12 games, getting 1 goal and 4 assists.

It’s taken maybe a little bit to decide where to head next and will once again head across the pond and signs in Slovakia2 with MHK Humenne.

He was limited to only 4 games, but hammered home 2 goals.

For 2025/2026, he returns to shores and signs with Worcester Railers, who will welcome his size into their lineup.

After being let go before skating for his new team, Grizzlies steps back in to give him a contract.

He appeared in only 3 games, recording 1 assist last year and for 2026/2027 circles back to Worcester, where he will look to roll into their regular lineup.
