UMASS-Lowell Riverhawks‘ senior defenseman Brehdan Engum(10) enters the transfer portal to do a graduate frame at Boston University Terriers in 2024/2025.

The 6’3″ 220 lbs. blue liner doesn’t score a lot of points, but is definitely accountable on a good team.

He left the USHL for Waterloo Blackhawks with 2 seasons of 10+ assists and a +36 rating.

From Burnsville, MN, the 24-year continues his Hockey East play another frame.

The big d-man scores only 2 assists in 30 games with a +7 rating last season and signs a 1st pro contract with Norfolk Admirals that should be an awesome match for both.

Clarkson University Golden Knights‘ junior right wing Ryan Taylor(22) is maybe not scoring as well as he would like, so enters the transfer portal and will join Atlantic Hockey rivals, Robert Morris University Colonials, as a senior in 2025/2026.

The 6’3″ 207 lbs. forward had 10 goals as a sophomore and 10 assists in his freshman year.

A St. Louis, MO native, he did 4 years of juniors before college.

The 22-year old will likely connect better with his new team.

3rd year right wing Ryan Nolan(24) was loaned up last season to the ECHL and made it work to score a new contract for 2025/2026 with Atlanta Gladiators.

The 6’1″ 198 lbs. forward scored only 1 goal and 2 assists in 17 games last season with a 0 rating.

He left the SPHL as a point-per-game scorer.

From Winnetka, IL, the former Michigan State University Spartans‘ seniors and 3 years at Merrimack College Warriors should play well enough to stick at the higher level.

Bowling Green University Falcons‘ 2nd year German-born defenseman Tommy Pasanen(18) heads home for his 1st pro contract, signing with Lowen Frankfort for 2025/2026.

The big 6’4″ 218 lbs. blue liner came over for 2 USHL seasons of juniors with Sioux City Musketeers after doing youth hockey back home and Czechia.

He started college hockey with 2 fairly successful frames with Clarkson University Golden Knights.

Undrafted defenseman Jeff Baum(6) spent a 1st collegiate year at Providence College Friars, but after a somewhat flat season entered the transfer portal to attend American International College Yellowjackets and completed his education, along with showing a nice uptick in his Atlantic Hockey play.

The 5’11” 185 lbs. blue liner will next head to the EIHL, joining Belfast Giants for 2021/2022.

Never the biggest point getter, in his 2nd season of juniors for Wichita Falls Wildcats, he was able to take it up a level with 10 goals, 20 assists and a +21 rating in 57 NAHL games, his best effort.

The 25-year old from Colleyville, TX native should find his footing in England’s top hockey.

Winning a league 2022 Championship, scoring a tidy 2 goals and 16 assists with a massive +28 rating, it’s a bit of a no brainer for him to return for a 2022/2023 sophomore run.

He may not be quite as generous as he was last year with his scoring 2 goals and 6 assists, but maintained a +22 rating in 10 less, 43 games.

It’s a complete easy thinker to return him for a 3rd campaign in his role as fan favorite to a team that has won 2 straight titles with him in the teal lineup.

After 4 seasons and 2 championships, he decides to play his hockey a little closer to home for 2025/2026 and signs with Idaho Steelheads, where we know he will contribute well.

University Of Michigan Wolverines‘ sophomore center William Whitelaw(18) will switch school for a 2nd time from his initial commit school, University Of Wisconsin Badgers.

Columbus Blue Jackets‘ 3rd round pick in the 2023 draft (#66 overall) next head to 2025 NCAA Division 1 Champs, Western Michigan University Broncos.

We look for the 5’9″ 174 lbs. forward to have similar 10+ points scoring success and even could push it higher.

He only did 1 year USHL juniors, blowing up scoring with Youngstown Phantoms on the way to the 2023 Clark Cup Championship before school.
