After only 13 games as a freshman at Nichols College Bison, center Ike Frankel(3) enters the transfer portal to a team that can definitely use him, despite only getting 1 goal in the last frame, Franklin Pierce University Ravens.

The 6’1″ 175 lbs. forward from San Diego, CA was a big scorer in 3 seasons of USPHL Premier with Minnesota Moose, grabbing 40+ points twice and 50 once.

He played all his youth hockey close to home and we think he’s going to find the net in NE10 play.

For his senior year, he scores a new high 5 goals and 7 points that he takes to a 1st pro contract with Monroe Mocassins.

He has 1 assist in 4 FPHL games.

SUNY-Canton Roos‘ senior defenseman Scott Cremen(43) had a college best 16 assists and tied his 18 points  from his junior frame that he takes to a 1st pro contract, a pto with Birmingham Bulls.

The 6’2″ 201 lbs. blue liner bounced around some in juniors, but seemed to settle pretty well when he got to Team Maryland and scored 1 goal and 7 assists in 19 games before committing.

In 4 SPHL games, he has 1 assist.

From Arnold, MD, the 23-year old should play well here.

Franklin Pierce University Ravens‘ Australian-born, sophomore defenseman Declan Bronte(27) came over from just 2 games use at Salem State University Vikings, as a freshman.

He played only 11 games in 2023/2024, scoring 1 assist.

The 5’10” 160 lbs. blue liner did 2 EHL years with Connecticut Chiefs, and even left to head back home to play some pro hockey in the AIHL with CBR Brave, scoring quite nicely.

He looks to be doing that each season now, which is a great idea.

The 22-year old from Melbourne is a good hockey story.

He actually finished up with 2 years at Fitchburg State University Falcons, scoring best as a senior with 3 goals and 5 assists in a high 26 games and turns pro as tournament play wraps up, signing with Danbury Hat Tricks.

Mercyhurst Univesity Lakers‘ senior goaltender Matt Lenz(1) enters the transfer portal after only 5 games total over 4 seasons and will play at Magnus Albertus College Falcons in a graduate frame for 2024/2025.

The 5’11” 170 lbs. net minder was very solid for 2 frames of MJHL with Steinbach Pistons.

From Calgary, AB, the 25-year old will do well at his new school.

After some pretty solid work for his new school, he signs a 1st pro deal for his rookie frame, 2025/2026 with Blue Ridge Bobcats of the FPHL, where we feel he will do really well.

He actually signs with Watertown Wolves, but continues to struggle some and is traded to Topeka Scarecrows for future considerations, as they make a playoff push.

Rookie defenseman Jake Johansen(4) is doing ok with 1 goal and 8 assists in 38 games, but is traded from the top team in the league to Twin City Thunderbirds, who are working for playoff positioning in the FPHL.

The 6’2″ 201 lbs. blue liner did 4 years at Fitchburg State University Falcons and scored a college best 7 goals and 16 assists in 27 games with a +2 rating.

He also helped the college team with the 2025 MASCAC title.

From Milford, NH, the 26-year old rose his junior game up to EHL, where he finished as captain with East Coast Wizards before school.
