Ogden Mustangs‘ 2nd year defenseman Grant Hineman(94) returns back east with some junior best numbers to his 2025/2026 commit at Salve Regina University Seahawks.

The 6′ 170 lbs. blue liner scored 3 goals and 21 assists in 52 USPHL/NCDC games last season.

He came off strong seasons at Unionville High USHS-PA and many years in the Philadelphia Jr. Flyers‘ youth hockey system.

From West Chester, PA, the 21-year old will play college hockey a little closer to home.

Providence Capitals‘ 1st year defenseman Anton Petrovskiy(36) has 3 goals and 6 assists in 36 EHL games, which he will take to a Lebanon Valley College Dutchmen commit for 2025/2026.

The 6′ 201 lbs. blue liner from Detroit, MI has played in no less than 5 junior leagues.

He was able to work himself up through the ranks and even did a year in Canada.

At 21 years old, he is likely, finally ready to make a next step.

Elmira College Soaring Eagles‘ senior left wing Chance Gorman(14) may not reach the 20 goals he posted as a junior or the 17 assists mark in his sophomore frame, but has 7 goals and 10 assists in only 20 games, so his point average is very good with a +5 rating.

The 5’10” 165 lbs. forward did 2 years of point-per-game junior hockey, really exploding the scoresheet in his 2nd season with East Coast Wizards of the EHL, reaching 30+ goals and assists.

From Clinton, NJ, the 25-year old will be an interesting watch to see what might pop up next.

Last season, he scores 9 goals and college tying 17 assists in 24 games with a +11 rating and takes it to a 1st pro contract with Fayettesville Marksmen that we feel should work well.
