Cy LeClerc (17)

Posted in College Hockey Player, Juniors | Leave a comment

University Of New Hampshire‘s 2022/2023 season commit, center Cy LeClerc(17) chose the nearby college after blowing up the score sheet in 2nd and final go of Seacoast Spartans 16U AAA with 55 goals and 57 assists in 60 games.

Having spent all of his youth hockey up north he signed with the just south Islanders Hockey Club a couple of seasons ago and finished up a completely COVID busted 2020/2021 with 11 goals and 20 assists in just 28 tilts

He produced just above point-per-game numbers in his debut campaign with the team and won 2019/2020 NCDC Rookie Of The Year honors.

The Brentwood, NH native left for a final, up a level of junior hockey with Janesville Jets, and he’s on fire with 13 goals and 11 assists in 19 NAHL games with a +8 rating.

The still super-young 5’8″ 150 lbs., 19 year old will turn 20 before school year, is going to be a nice addition to the Wildcats‘ team and Hockey East competition.

As a senior, assistant captain, he scored 4 goals and 11 assists in 34 games, which he takes to a 1st contract with Utah Grizzlies.

We look for him to connect in the ECHL for points.

In 10 games, he grabs 3 goals, but has no team to play for in 2026/2027, so Tahoe Knight Monsters step in.

David Drake (25)

Posted in College Hockey Player, Juniors, Minor League Deal | Leave a comment

Undrafted, 3rd year 6’6″ 195 lbs. defenseman David Drake(25) decided to take 2020/2021 off, as did his team of the past couple seasons, Reading Royals, despite them both being ready to re-up.

For 2021/2022 though, he is set to rejoin them and becomes one of the initial signings.

The former two year University Of Connecticut Huskies assistant captain actually signed for his rookie and sophomore sessions to their parent club, Lehigh Valley Phantoms, but only played 9 AHL games, with 7 being after college graduation, gaining 2 assists.

Never the biggest scorer in college or a couple of years of junior hockey with Des Moines Buccaneers, he actually had 13 assists in ’19/20.

The 26-year old has found himself a nice home for hockey in PA.

He would last only 18 games in 2021/2022 before being sent to Wheeling Nailers, where he spent most of the season, but was also loaned up on a pair of occasions.

In his 4 games for Rochester Americans, he had an assist and was a +3.

For 2022/2023, he heads back to West Virginia, which might lead to his best success.

4 goals and 15 assists (both clearly career bests) and he has to return to continue wearing that Nailers‘ jersey.

He runs a best 18 assists and 20 points with a +18 rating in 65 ECHL games to be welcome back for 2024/2025.

In another 65 games, he records 14 assists, but looks elsewhere for a new contract and signs for 2025/2026 with Greenville Swamp Rabbits.

Last season, he does ok with scoring again, keeping to 10+ assists in the last 4 years, but looks elsewhere and signs with Savannah Ghost Pirates for 2026/2027.

RIT Tigers‘ senior right wing Cody Laskosky(26) will take some college best scoring with 14 goals and 27 assists in 37 games with a +16 rating into the transfer portal to next play hockey at University Of Wisconsin Badgers.

He had 10+ goals and assists as a junior with a +18 rating.

The 5’11” 180 lbs. forward play 4 junior AJHL seasons with a few different teams before circling into home team, Camrose Kodiaks for an outstanding scoring spree.

Undrafted, the 24-year old could very well play himself onto radar.

He finishes up his extra session with 7 goals and 4 assists in 27 games with a +6 rating that he takes to a 1st contract as a rookie with Tahoe Knight Monsters for 2025/2026.

After 11 games with 3 goals and 3 assists, he is traded to Indy Fuel.

In 50 games, he nets 12 goals and 21 assists with a +7 rating, then adds 4 more points in the playoffs to be an easy invite to return a Fuel for 2026/2027.
