UMASS-Boston Beacons‘ graduate left wing Conor Foley(27) came over after 4 years at Franklin Pierce University Ravens, putting up 10+ g0als and assists in 3 of the 4 seasons, and producing more than a point-per-game during the very COVID shortened 2020/2021.
The 5’11” 187 lbs. forward has 3 goals and 7 assists in 13 games in the current frame.
From Nahant, MA, he did 1 year of EHL with Vermont Lumberjacks with outstanding results.
Endicott College Gulls‘ senior left wing Jackson Sterrett(15) will most definitely flirt with career highs posted as a junior, 13 goals and 16 assists in 27 games.
He already has 7 goals and 5 assists in 11 this season.
The 5’11” 180 lbs forward transferred from 2 years at UMASS-Lowell Riverhawks, where he wasn’t cracking the lineup.
He had come off a strong NAHL frame with Maryland Black Bears, scoring 19 goals and 23 assists.
The Hendersonville, TN native (hey Johnny Cash) seems pretty happy and plays a very solid game, always a threat on net.
Johnson & Wales University Wildcats‘ Japanese-born, senior defenseman Ryo Namaki(28) played a college career best 24 games, scoring 1 goal and 2 assists as a junior, but despite 1 assist in 11 games, we feel will see best marks in the frame in how he plays.
The 5’11” 185 lbs. blue liner played 1 USPHL Premier season for Northern Cyclones with 4 goals and 12 assists in 33 games before initially committing to New England College Pilgrims, where he spent 2 campaigns, but was used little.
He had to work himself into his new NEHC game, when he arrived.
We look for the 25-year old to continue.
UMASS Minutemen graduate left wing Christian Sanda(15) came over from 4 years at Union College Dutchmen.
The 6’1″ 185 lbs. forward isn’t exactly the biggest scorer with 3 goals and 3 assists as a junior, equaling basically all his stats.
He has 1 assist in 6 games with his new club, so is off to a good Hockey East start.
The undrafted 25-year old adding another year seems like a no-brainer and he definitely pushes his game.
Skidmore College Thoroughbreds‘ senior center Jacob Franczak(13) already has a career best 3 goals and we believe will surpass his 7 assists posted as a junior and through 11 games this season is a +3 rating.
The 6’1″ 181 lbs. forward originally played 2 years at Long Island University Sharks after 2 strong AJHL campaigns, but only figured in 18 games overall.

The 6’1″ 190 lbs. blue liner originally skated 2 years at University Of Southern Maine Huskies, but has found his game in the MASCAC.
A Quebec, QC native, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the 23-year old go for a year of eligibility.
Western New England University Golden Bears‘ 6’5″ 229 lbs. left wing Nolan Dawson(85) was at Curry College Colonels, playing a rough average of 20 games per frame, but just as he did after his freshman year at Saint Mary’s University Cardinals, he decides to switch things up and arrives for his senior session.
He has 2 goals and 2 assists in 11 games, which could see him turn new college best numbers, assuredly in tallies.
From Airdrie, AB, he played mostly 4 years of junior hockey in 3 different northern leagues, but only twice made it work for extended stays.
We don’t think it out of the question for him to add a year of eligibility, where he is.
Mass College Of Liberal Arts‘ sophomore defenseman Matthew Castillo(5) came over after a freshman year at Salem State University Vikings, where he played a scant 3 games.
The 5’10” 189 lbs. blue liner has already figured into 11 appearances and looks to guard the zone nicely for his new college team.
He spent most of his junior hockey in 2 EHL sessions, last year for New York Applecore, scoring a mantle place 1 goal and 5 assists.
Maybe not the biggest of scorers, we feel once he finds the headman puck play, he will add to those totals some.
Southern New Hampshire University Penmen sophomore left wing Kurt Watson(13) decided to switch schools after 21 games (4 goals, 2 assists) at Rivier University Raiders.

We think the 22-year old looks pretty happy with his new college club.
