University Of Denver Pioneers‘ graduate portal transfer, left wing Cameron Wright(16) comes in from 4 strong years at Bowling Green State University Falcons and pulls off a rare college hockey feat, scoring a hat trick in a recent blowout.

The 6’1″ 190 lbs. forward currently has 10 goals and 6 assists, which is basically in line how he’s scored the previous four campaigns.

He’s once had 20 goals and twice 16 assists.

The Richmond Hill, ON native rattled off big numbers in his 2nd and 3rd sessions with St. Michael’s Buzzers amassing 130 points in 136 OJHL games.

At 23-years old, he will definitely be an interesting undrafted watch heading into unrestricted free agency upon finishing up 2021/2022.

He would score a new college best 23 goals and 34 points last season with the team that won the 2022 NCAA Division 1 Championship.

For 2022/2023, he signs a 1st pro AHL deal he stays close by with Colorado Eagles and will likely blow up scoring as a rookie to potentially get someone’s attention.

Mostly just skating for Utah Grizzlies, he scored a mammoth 29 goals and 34 assists in 64 games, then added another 7 points in 6 playoff matchups.

For 2023/2024, he’s looking for more playing time up, so signs with Bakersfield Condors to help give them more scoring punch.

After 48 games, scoring a rookie team best 12 goals and 9 assists with a +9 rating, he is a no brainer to bring back to try to help this struggling Condors‘ team move further.

In 60 games, he scores 13 goals and 11 assists, but we believe he isn’t receiving the looks he wants, so ups and leaves for Liiga to sign with HPK for 2025/2026.

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.

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.

University Of Maine Black Bears‘ sophomore defenseman Liam Lesakowski(6) is 6’5″ 220 lbs.

He doesn’t score a lot of points, 0 last season with a +2 rating on a very good team.

In more games the previous year, he had 2 assists.

Through 2 USHL seasons before school, he had more points, but only marginally.

From Buffalo, NY, the 21-year old enters the transfer portal and will head to Sacred Heart University Pioneers, as a junior, 2025/2026.
