State of Hockey Spotlight: Making hockey dreams come true in Mankato by STEVE MANN
www.minnesotahockey.org
With a population of around 46,000 (105,000 if you include the surrounding metro area), Mankato, Minn., is by no means a small town. It’s a true regional hub that offers the combination of unmistakable charm and close-knit community feel, with the modern amenities and economic opportunities one might expect from a growing area just 75 miles southwest of the Twin Cities. When it comes to ice hockey, Mankato is building a reputation as a force to be reckoned with. For the first time, in 202526, the Mankato Area Hockey Association (MAHA) sent three teams – Peewee B1, Bantam B1 and Bantam A – to the Minnesota Hockey State Tournament. The Bantam A team finished third, the highest finish for a youth team in the association’s history. Meanwhile, both the Mankato West boys and the Mankato East girls reached the pinnacle high school event in St. Paul, while the Minnesota State University men’s team won the CCHA regular season and postseason championships, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament. Kelli Bohm, president of the Mankato Area Hockey Association and a graduate of Loyola High School, has had a front row seat for the incredible growth in her Minnesota River Valley community, both on and off the ice. “We’re not just a southern town in the sticks,” said Bohm, who has overseen a steady increase in her association’s registration numbers over the last four years, topping 500 members in each of the last two seasons. “There’s an abundance of hockey in our community that gets people involved one way or another, whether it’s through family members or friends. People get hooked on the sport quickly. We have a great hockey culture in Mankato.”

Mankato hockey is flourishing thanks to a strong youth program. Hockey for All Ages Few communities in the State of Hockey have the benefit of having a youth program of more than 500 kids, a thriving adult hockey league, two strong high school programs, plus a D-1 college program that have helped to create excitement and open doors for a number of kids and families to participate in the sport. From Try Hockey for Free and Learn to Skate for the “newbies,” to a Mite “InHouse” (i.e. no travel) program for players ranging from 4-8-years-old, to multiple boys travel (Squirts, Peewees, Bantam) and girls travel teams (10U, 12U, 15U), Mankato truly offers something for everyone. “Our mission is to grow the game and make it available for everyone in our community,” Bohm said. “We want to develop players and teams from all levels, give them the opportunity to be on the ice and make it affordable at the same time. Not every kid is going to make an A-team every year, but we have a place for everyone to play and that’s really important.”
One of those places – that every MAHA team got to experience – was outside at Blakeslee Field, home to MSU’s football team and host facility for the snowy Hockey Day Minnesota event in 2022. In addition to the core memories created, Mankato is still reaping the benefits of that massive hockey celebration through a permanent “Grow the Game” fund created at the Mankato Area Foundation. The city later turned a Grow the Game grant into a new dryland training room, as part of the 2025 renovations to All Seasons Arena. Creating Community Connections More opportunity equals more exposure to the sport, and in Mankato, the community comes together to create long-lasting connections, keep costs down and grow the game. For example: MAHA has a partnership with local schools, through which high school players read books to elementary school classrooms. The high school programs also have youth nights, where youth players get free admission.
A partnership with the MSU men’s team, called the “Little Pints,” gives kids the chance to skate on the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center (formerly Civic Center) ice between periods of Mavericks’ home games. For the second straight year, MSU’s women’s team will host MAHA kids at a day-time game. MAHA offers Try Hockey for Free and Bring a Friend to Hockey events to introduce new players to the sport. MAHA does a variety of fundraising activities during the year, including dinners, auctions and calendar sales. Perhaps the most inspiring and noteworthy event is the Anthony Ford Pond Hockey Tournament, a celebration of community hockey that raises money to fight for a cure for childhood cancer, as well as scholarships for youth players in the community. The local business community supports the program via sponsorships, including signage on dasher boards and inside the rinks. A fully volunteer board and fundraising efforts and tournaments run exclusively by volunteers provide substantial, significant support. Focus on Development MAHA is proud of the fact that nearly all the players selected to Mankato area high school teams honed their skills in the association’s programs, following the ADM model with small group, station-based teaching, including a large number of high-energy reps and limited time standing still on the ice. Perhaps most important, a community doesn’t have the kind of hockey success Mankato has had recently without a significant commitment

Minnesota Hockey announces First Annual MNPierce HOCKEY HEADING Jessi Community Cup
Eight 12UB teams will compete at TRIA Rink in a weekend celebrating hockey, community and the legacy of Jessi Pierce by DANI DUFFEY
www.minnesotahockey.org
Minnesota Hockey announced the first annual Jessi Pierce Community Cup held at Tria Rink, bringing together eight teams for a weekend of competitive hockey while honoring the life and legacy of beloved Minnesota Hockey journalist Jessi Pierce and her three children. Pierce, a longtime contributor to the NHL and a familiar presence throughout Minnesota’s hockey community, tragically died alongside her three children
in a house fire in White Bear Lake on March 21, 2026. Pierce spent more than a decade covering the NHL and Minnesota Wild and was widely remembered for her passion for hockey, her vibrant personality and the relationships she built throughout the sport. This tournament was created as a way for the hockey community to come together, celebrate Jessi’s love of the game and honor the lasting impact she and her family had on those around them. Through a weekend centered around hockey, community and remembrance, the event will provide an opportunity for players, families, coaches and members of the hockey community to come together in Jessi’s memory. The three-day tournament will take place on Dec. 11-13 and feature an eightteam bracket, with teams competing
throughout the weekend for the opportunity to take home the championship. More details and registration to be announced. About Jessi Pierce Jessi Pierce was more than a hockey journalist. She was a storyteller, a passionate advocate for the game and a familiar face to countless people throughout Minnesota’s hockey community. For more than a decade, Jessi covered the Minnesota Wild and the NHL for NHL.com, while also contributing to USA Hockey, The Athletic, Minnesota Hockey Journal and other hockey publications. Through her writing, podcasting and work throughout the hockey community, she had a remarkable ability to connect with people and make everyone around her feel welcome.
Jessi loved hockey deeply, but she loved her family just as much. She was incredibly proud of her children, Hudson, Cayden and Avery, and often brought the same energy and enthusiasm she had for hockey into her family life. Jessi and her three children tragically passed away on March 21, 2026. Their loss left an immeasurable void for their family, friends and the hockey community. The Jessi Pierce Community Cup is a celebration of Jessi’s life, her family and the game she loved. It is a weekend for the hockey community to come together, share in the game Jessi was so passionate about and remember the joy, energy and connection she brought to so many people. Her impact on hockey – and on the people within it – will not be forgotten.

Hero

Scott Bloom became a state tournament legend in ’85 and ’86 by BRYAN ZOLLMAN
Let’s Play Hockey Publisher
Many great players play in the state high school hockey tournament. Few become heroes. Even fewer become icons. Scott Bloom was certainly the former, and now, with his sudden passing at age 58, could be considered the latter as well. Bloom died Aug. 18 at a hospital after suffering a head injury while walking his dog on Aug. 16 in Prior Lake. Details are still under investigation. His family released a statement upon his passing: “On Sunday evening, Scott Bloom suffered a fatal head injury due to an accident, which is still under investigation. The medical team at Hennepin County Medical Center did everything they could, but his injuries were irreversible. We are grateful that Scott was able
to hold on long enough for his family to all come together and be with him. He passed Tuesday evening, surrounded by his wife and two children. “No arrangements have been made yet, but details will be shared when they are available. The family is asking for time and space to be together right now, and they appreciate everyone’s understanding and support.” Bloom’s name was elevated into local hockey lore after his state tournament heroics in 1985 and 1986. In March of 1985, the Burnsville Braves were seeking their first state high school championship. Two years prior they had faced the undefeated Hill-Murray Pioneers in the 1983 final. It was their first trip to the state tournament, and despite reaching the state championship game, they fell to the vaunted Pioneers who finished the season 28-0. In 1985 the Pioneers were as good as ever, and hockey experts had pegged
“He’s got such a good shot. A real strong fellow with great quickness and when he unloads that puck he’s really dangerous.” - Lou Nanne on air for WCCO after Bloom
scored his game-winning goal in 1985
them as a juggernaut that could not be stopped. “Scouts all said they wouldn’t lose a game,” said Tom Osiecki, who was in his 20th season as head coach of the Braves. “Everyone else was saying the same thing.” But with 27 seconds left in a 3-3 game, Scott Bloom found the puck on his stick inside the Pioneer blue line. He skated towards the middle of the ice and from the top of the circle fired a wrist shot past Hill-Murray goaltender Rick Horvath. The Burnsville bench went bananas as players mauled Bloom, a junior who
had burst onto the scene at the state tournament and with that shot suddenly became a household name amongst hockey fans. It was his second goal of the game and third of the tournament. For those watching at home, Chris Cuthbert provided the call: “Here’s a break. Over the line. Shot, scores! Oh my, what a goal and Burnsville has the lead!”

continued from page 6 Lou Nanne provided the commentary on the goal: “I think that was Scott Bloom who got that puck…he’s a fella who can really shoot it. We’ve seen him score goals with that wrist shot last night and tonight …cuts to the middle and unloads a blast…a very dangerous Scott Bloom.” Nanne called Bloom one of the top players in the state as a junior and a player who would be considered in the NHL draft the following year. “He’s got such a good shot. A real strong fellow with great quickness and when he unloads that puck he’s really dangerous,” Nanne continued. Coach Osiecki remembers the moment the puck went in. “It was surreal,” he said. “I know we were celebrating, but did this really happen, or was I dreaming?” Said teammate Lance Werness: “It happened so fast. It was unbelievable.” Those within the Burnsville hockey community knew of Scott Bloom’s talent on the ice. He was just one of those players who knew where to be and knew how to score. “He just had an incredible ability to shoot the puck,” Tom Osiecki said. Bloom had scored 110 goals as a squirt, and continued to be Burnsville’s top scorer at every level through high school. “I remember it like it was yesterday as it made such an impact on me on how good Scott was as a player and a scorer,” said Mark Osiecki, Bloom’s teammate throughout their Burnsville careers. Coach Osiecki could see something special brewing not just with Scott Bloom, but with that group of kids, all who grew up close to each other back when high school teams were made up mostly of neighborhood kids who played with each other from mites through bantams. “We had so many good athletes in our neighborhood it was unreal,” said Osiecki. “They had a street hockey game in our driveway twice a week because we had the longest driveway.” Kevin Gorg was the goalie on the 1985 state championship team and was the ringleader for those games. “Gorg wouldn’t let the game start until they all sang the national anthem,” Osiecki said. “And they had to sing the Canadian one too. And they knew all the words to both of them.” It was a snapshot of what it was like growing up as a young hockey player in Minnesota in the 80s.

more than a stick and a baseball glove. Kids got better by having fun, and they had just one hockey goal in life. To play in the state tournament. In 1985 the state tournament was in its heyday and was the biggest stage in the state of hockey. The pure jubilation of reaching it came with an enormous amount of pressure in playing it. Some teams and players become overwhelmed with the spectacle of it. Some are content with just getting there. For someone like Scott Bloom, the stage was never too large, the crowd never too loud, the pressure never too much. After losing in the ’83 finals and in the quarterfinals in ’84, the Braves were destined to get back to the title game. And the more pressure the better for Bloom. His ability to perform in pressure situations was a unique asset that helped elevate him to star status. “He was always very intense,” said Coach Osiecki. “His goal was to always win, to be incredibly successful on every shift. It was always to make sure we were taking charge.” Werness was a teammate of Bloom’s

Bloom wasn’t big, but played a big game and was never afraid of contact. In fact, he relished it. throughout their youth careers. While Bloom was a gifted offensive player, Werness said he was also one of the toughest. “I just remember him being so strong,” he said. “In peewees and bantams he was the first guy to take on checks and give checks.” Mark Osiecki saw his toughness not just on the ice, but on the gridiron. In the fall of ’85 the Braves had reached the high school football state championship. Osiecki was the center, hockey teammate Matt Larson the quarterback and Bloom the fullback. “He was an unreal football player,” Osiecki recalled. “Just a bulldozer. He just ran over everybody, just like in hockey. He relished the contact.” They lost against Stillwater that year. Bloom didn’t return the following fall and focused on hockey. Part of it was because he didn’t get the ball in the waning moments of the game and the team lost on a fumble. “He wanted the ball and he wanted the puck,” said Osiecki. “He relished those big moments in games. Those pressure situations.” Kevin Gorg called him the quintessential power forward. “If he got the puck on his stick, you
weren’t getting it away from him,” he said. “He always seemed to be in the right spot at the right time.” The other big part of his game was his shot, which became bookmarked in state tournament lore with his game-winner in ’85. Gorg claimed his wrist shot was harder than his slapper. “I saw a lot of high-end talent,” said Gorg, who went on to play in the USHL and in college at the University of St. Thomas. “I don’t know if he had the hardest shot, but he had the heaviest. It was incredible.” Mark Osiecki called Bloom’s shot “elite.” “He was a first-class shooter,” he said. Coach Osiecki said not only was his shot hard, it was extremely accurate. “He had that eye,” he said. “He had the incredible ability to shoot he puck. Just the old simple wrist shot. It was incredibly hard and incredibly accurate. Not many guys had that. And I don’t even know if he worked at it. I think it came naturally.”

BLOOM
continued from page 7 Bloom’s goal in 1985 introduced him to the state of hockey. When people thought of Burnsville hockey they thought of Scott Bloom and his goal against Hill-Murray. With so many talented players on the roster, many who went on to play college and even professional hockey, Bloom’s name stood out. All because of that goal. Because that’s what the state tournament does. It creates big moments. It’s like watching a Hollywood action movie live, on ice, in real time. And every movie has a hero. When his wrister hit the top corner in 1985, Scott Bloom became the hero. “It’s one thing to be talented. It’s another to answer the bell,” said Gorg. “He was that player.” But Bloom wasn’t done. The goal and championship in ’85 was just the introduction. His passion for success, the intensity that drove him to plow through linebackers and defensemen elevated him to captain his senior season, and along with the seven returning players, they set out to prove to people they could do it again. The Burnsville Braves weren’t the underdog anymore. They had won three straight region titles and were the defending state champions. They went from underdog to becoming a target.
www.letsplayhockey.com
He was just tough. Strong and tough. Nobody could push him around.” - Lance Werness, 1985-86 teammate Which was fine for Scott Bloom. “Even when we were young he was always a target,” said Mark Osiecki. “But he was tough. He was always tough.” Osiecki and Bloom both captained the Braves back to the state tournament. Osiecki was a stay-at-home defenseman, known as a premier shot blocker, the kind of player who would lay down in front of any shooter and eat a puck. He would eventually play at the University of Wisconsin and in the NHL. Bloom was the catalyst on offense, coming off a strong junior season and now paired with Werness, who would become one of the top players in the metro. While Osiecki was more of a vocal leader, Bloom led more by example through his toughness, resiliency and refusal to lose something as simple as a puck battle. “He was pretty quiet, but led through example,” said Werness. “But if he had something to say he would say it to your face. He was just tough. Strong and tough. Nobody could push him around.” Coach Osiecki agreed that Bloom was a leader through his intensity and skill on the ice. “He led by his goal scoring ability more than anything else,” he said. When Gorg was a senior and Bloom
a junior, he said he fit in well with the team. His talent was undeniable, and Gorg said the locker room was full of strong personalities. “Scott fit the bill,” he said. “He was one of the guys you wanted to be around. He was funny. He was engaging. He drew people to him. He was one of those glue guys behind the scenes.” Mark Osiecki said Bloom was quiet, but sarcastic and liked to joke around and give teammates a hard time. “He wore his heart on his sleeve,” he said. “He said what he felt and had no problem with how people felt about what he said. He wasn’t worried about what other people felt about him. That’s just who he was.” Osiecki said those qualities are what helped drive Bloom to the level of excellence he achieved. That excellence was on display in the ’86 tournament. Burnsville had survived a three-overtime game against Rochester John Marshall in the region semifinals, winning 4-3. They defeated Rochester Mayo 5-1 in the finals. In the state quarterfinals against South St. Paul, Bloom netted a hat trick and added a pair of assists in a 7-4 win. They advanced to the semifinals where they faced Duluth Denfeld and
goaltender Robb Stauber. They trailed 1-0 heading into the third period, but scored three unanswered goals for a 3-1 win. Bloom assisted on two of those goals. In the title game they faced their familiar foes in the Pioneers. Once again, Bloom rose to the occasion with two goals and an assist in a 4-1 victory. The win gave the Braves back-to-back titles. It also solidified Bloom as not just a state tournament hero in one game, but in becoming one of the tournament’s most recognizable names. Burnsville was also now considered a premiere hockey program. Bloom’s first goal in the championship game was the game-winner. Only two players in the history of the tournament have had game-winning goals in two championship games. Scott Bloom and John Mayasich. Bloom’s name has since not just been synonymous with Burnsville hockey, but with the state tournament itself. When it comes to state tournament icons, players who made a lasting impact and are remembered many years after their performance, he certainly qualifies. “He just craved pressure situations and thrived on them,” said Gorg. “He played a different game at a different level.” At the time of Burnsville’s run and Bloom’s hand in it, he was what every eight to 14-year-old hockey player in Minnesota wanted to be: a state tournament hero who scores the winning goal in the championship game. He didn’t just do it once. He did it twice. “I watched him when I was younger every chance I got,” said Tom Pederson, who was a few years younger than Bloom and would go on to star for Bloomington Jefferson and become teammates with Bloom for the Minnesota Gophers. “He was a god in youth hockey.” Bloom finished the ’86 tournament with five goals and five assists. He was a finalist for Mr. Hockey along with Hill-Murray’s Tom Quinlan, Robbinsdale Armstrong’s Lance Pitlick, Fergus Falls’ Blaine Rude, and Bemidji’s George Pelawa. Pelawa was named Mr. Hockey and became a first round draft pick of the Calgary Flames. He died later that summer in a tragic car accident.

“He means a lot to Burnsville athletics, and a lot to me and my dad. Scott scoring that winning goal elevated Burnsville. He means a lot to all of us.” - Mark Osiecki, former teammate and lifelong friend Bloom was chosen in the fifth round by Calgary and went on to play four years at the University of Minnesota. During his junior season he was fighting for playing time after he and coach Doug Woog had butted heads. The pressure mounted and Bloom, as always, responded to the challenge. “Senior year during camp he was on fire and started scoring goals and making things happen,” recalled Werness. “He was determined.” Gorg was playing at St. Thomas and would hang out with Gopher players. He said Bloom not playing ignited something inside him. “When you challenged Scott Bloom he would always find a way to come through,” he said. As a senior he was second on the team in goals and finished with 24 goals and 28 assists for 52 points. “Woog never had a chance to sit him,” said Werness. Bloom never cracked the professional ranks, likely due to his 5’10” stature at a time when NHL teams opted for bigger players in the clutch-and-grab era. Like most high school teams, play-
ers went their separate ways after high school. After playing with Bloom at the University of Minnesota, Werness lost touch after college until recently. Mark Osiecki and Bloom remained close, and Bloom attended the 40-year reunion events for the championship teams of ’85 and ’86 the past two winters. Bloom’s death on Aug. 18 rattled the hockey community, especially the Burnsville hockey community. Werness said Bloom reached out to him last fall. “I was working a new job in Jordan and he was in Shakopee,” he said. “He gave me a call out of the blue and wanted to catch up. We talked about meeting up for lunch. Unfortunately, we never got the chance.” Gorg last saw Bloom at Gorg’s father’s funeral in June. “He looked great,” Gorg said. Mark Osiecki is a scout for the Pittsburgh Penguins and would contact Bloom when he was in town and attending games. “I’d reach out to see if he was around,” he said. “The last three years

Bloom was tough to knock off the puck. Above he is shown at the state tournament, where he flourished as a player helping lead Burnsville to back-to-back state titles. we’ve seen each other quite a bit.” Upon hearing the news of his injuries, Gorg and Osiecki took to social media asking for prayers and support for their teammate. “It’s a tough loss for all of us,” said Gorg. “He’s the first player off that team we have lost.” “It really does hit home,” said Mark Osiecki. “It’s tough news to lose a teammate, but especially a friend who you have known for such a long time.” Bloom is survived by his wife and their two children. He is also survived by the teammates on those ’85 and ’86 teams, the teams that officially put Burnsville on the map of Minnesota high school hockey, as well as his teammates at the University of Minnesota. “He means a lot to Burnsville athletics, and a lot to me and my dad,” Mark Osiecki said. “Scott scoring that winning goal elevated Burnsville. He means a lot to all of us.” Osiecki said the past week has shown him how hockey brings people together and how important relationships are when it comes to the game of hockey. He has received countless texts from former players, coaches and friends. “It’s pretty special to have people reach out and to ask how the family is
doing,” he said. “The support has been pretty overwhelming.” Bloom is not just remembered by those who shared a locker room with him, but by so many youth hockey players who looked up to him and wanted to be him. Anybody who followed high school hockey in the 80s knew his name. It is part of what makes the state high school hockey tournament so magical. It creates a bond between young and old. The special part is the memories never leave. High school hockey fans will always remember his iconic goal, and he and his teammates’ follow-up act in leading the Braves to back-to-back titles, even though it was 40 years ago. “They stay with you,” said Gorg. “Those games last forever.” When people talk of the state tournament, certain names always come up. There aren’t many of them. But Scott Bloom is one of those names. The magic of the state tournament has a way in producing heroes. And sometimes, icons. Because of that magic, Scott Bloom’s name will forever be remembered and live in the annals of hockey history in this great state of hockey, never to be forgotten.

Oshie (Warroad, Minn.), Ryan Suter (Madison, Wis.) and Stan Wong (Boca Raton, Fla.) will be enshrined into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame as the Class of 2026 it was announced today by USA Hockey. “You don’t have to look far in our sport to find someone whose life was touched by one of these five,” said Mike Trimboli, president of USA Hockey. “Their extraordinary contributions will be felt for generations to come, and it is with great pride that we welcome them among the all-time greats of the sport in our country.” The U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Induction Celebration, which will include the formal enshrinement of the Class of 2026 along with the presentation of the NHL’s Lester Patrick Trophy, will be held Monday, November 30, 2026, in Washington, D.C. Additional details will be provided later this month. ABOUT AMANDA KESSEL A three-time Olympian and one of the most gifted offensive players in women’s hockey history, Amanda Kessel electrified crowds over the course of her playing career with the U.S. Women’s National Team, and at both the professional and collegiate levels. A member of the 2018 U.S. Olympic Women’s Ice Hockey Team that took home the country’s first gold in women’s hockey since 1998, Kessel scored a pivotal shootout goal in the gold-medal game against Canada. She was also a member of the 2022 and 2014 Olympic teams that brought home silver. Kessel skated in seven IIHF Women’s World Championships. A four-time gold medalist and three-time silver medalist at the event, she recorded 59 points (20G, 39A) in 43 tournament games. The Madison, Wisconsin, native also played in two IIHF Under-18 Women’s World Championships, including the first ever tournament staged. She helped the U.S. to gold in both 2008 and 2009, leading the team in points on both occasions. In 2009, she led the entire tournament with 19 points (6G, 13A). Kessel was dominant on the collegiate stage, putting together an unforgettable four-season career at the University of Minnesota. A three-time NCAA Division I national champion (2012, 2013, 2016), she authored one of the most impressive colle-
giate tenures of all time. Kessel’s most impressive college season came in 2012-13 when she recorded 101 points (46G, 55A) in just 37 games to become just the fifth player ever to reach the century mark in a single season in NCAA Division I women’s ice hockey. She was named USA Hockey’s Bob Allen Women’s Player of the Year in 2013 after a season that included her 101-point campaign at Minnesota, an NCAA Division I national championship, a women’s world championship gold medal and the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award. Kessel finished her career with 248 points (108G, 140A) which ranks third alltime in Minnesota women’s hockey history. She also played multiple professional seasons in the NWHL and PWHPA, which included a year with the Metropolitan Riveters in 2018-19, where she led the NWHL in assists with 15. Kessel joined the NHL’s Pittsburgh Penguins in April 2022 as the first member of the team’s executive management program and today she serves as manager of minor league operations for the Penguins and assistant general manager for the club’s AHL affiliate Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. ABOUT PHIL KESSEL Phil Kessel, a three-time Stanley Cup champion and two-time Olympian, played in an NHL-record 1,064 consecutive regular-season games and forged a path as one of the most elite American-born scorers of his era. Through his storied NHL career, Kessel recorded 992 regular-season points, including 413 goals and 579 assists, in 17 seasons that included time with the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Pittsburgh Penguins, Arizona Coyotes and Vegas Golden Knights. Drafted fifth overall in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft by the Bruins, Kessel became the first rookie to win the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy after overcoming testicular cancer to play all but 12 regular-season games in his first NHL campaign in 2006-07. After three seasons with the Bruins and six with the Maple Leafs, Kessel took his talents to the Steel City and the Pittsburgh Penguins where he helped the club to a pair of Stanley Cup titles (2016, 2017) and contributed 45 points (18G, 27A) in 49 games over both title runs. His 201718 season with the Penguins was his most
prolific with a career-best 92 points, including 34 goals, and the next year, in his final campaign with the Penguins, he led the NHL with 10 game-winning goals. The Madison, Wisconsin, native went on to play three years with the Arizona Coyotes, before earning another Stanley Cup in his final NHL campaign in 2022-23 with the Vegas Golden Knights. Kessel played two seasons (2003-05) at USA Hockey’s National Team Development where he was a dominating offensive force and set program records in points (180) and goals (104) that stood until 2019. He also played one season collegiately at the University of Minnesota (2005-06) where he earned WCHA Rookie of the Year. A regular on the international stage, Kessel helped the U.S. to a silver medal in the 2010 Olympic Winter Games and returned to the Olympic stage in 2014 where he was named the best forward in the tournament after putting up eight points (5G, 3A) in six games. Kessel also wore the red, white and blue at two IIHF Under-18 Men’s World Championships, helping the U.S. to silver in 2004 and gold in 2005, where he recorded 16 points (9G, 7A) in six contests en route to being named the tournament’s best forward. A member of Team USA at three IIHF Men’s World Championships (2006, 2007, 2008) and two IIHF World Junior Championships (2005, 2006), Kessel recorded 72 points (36G, 36A) in 59 games in international play during his career. ABOUT T.J. OSHIE Known for his talent, heart and grit, T.J. Oshie not only played a prominent role in helping the NHL’s Washington Capitals secure their first Stanley Cup in franchise history, but also authored a signature moment in Olympic history with his shootout heroics against Russia at the 2014 Games in Sochi, Russia — a performance that earned him the enduring nickname “T.J. Sochi.” Over his 16-year NHL career, Oshie played in 1,010 regular-season games with both the St. Louis Blues and Capitals, recording 695 points (302G, 393A). He also helped his teams to the Stanley Cup playoffs 13 times, contributing 69 points (34G, 35A) in 106 career playoff games. Oshie began his NHL career in St. Louis before joining Washington in 2015. During the 2017-18 season, Oshie
posted 47 points, and 21 points (8G, 13A) in 24 playoff games, as the Capitals won the Stanley Cup — the first championship in franchise history. He recorded six seasons with more than 50 points, with a career-best 60 points (21G, 39A) coming in 2013-14 with the St. Louis Blues. A year before that Cup run, Oshie signed a contract extension to remain with Washington through the remainder of his career. The Warroad, Minnesota, native was selected 24th overall by St. Louis in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft, making his NHL debut on October 10, 2008. Before turning pro, he laced up the skates for the USHL’s Sioux Falls Stampede in 2004-05, then spent three seasons at the University of North Dakota (2005-08), tallying 142 points (59G, 83A) and helping the Fighting Sioux to three straight NCAA Men’s Frozen Four appearances. On the international stage, Oshie donned the USA jersey on multiple occasions, including as a member of Team USA at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia, where he converted four of six shootout attempts — including the deciding goal — in a memorable 3-2 preliminary-round win over host Russia. He finished with four points (1G, 3A) in six games as the U.S. advanced to the medal round and a fourth-place finish. Oshie also represented the red, white and blue at three IIHF Men’s World Championships (2009, 2010, and 2013 — where the U.S. won bronze), as well as the 2006 IIHF World Junior Championship and 2016 World Cup of Hockey. ABOUT RYAN SUTER One of the most dominant and consistent two-way defensemen of his generation, Ryan Suter played in 1,526 regular-season NHL games over 20 seasons, second all-time among American-born players, and also starred on the international stage, including helping the U.S. earn a silver medal in the 2010 Olympics, and the country’s first-ever gold medal in the IIHF World Junior Championship in 2004. A native of Madison, Wisconsin, Suter joined the USA Hockey National Team Development Program in 2001 as a member of the U.S. National Under-17 Team before quickly being elevated to the U.S. National Under-18 Team, which he played for until 2003.

Pete Carlson recognized for lasting impact on youth hockey Longtime Super Rink manager is recipient of Herb Brooks Foundation Youth Hockey Hall of Fame Award by BRYAN ZOLLMAN
Let’s Play Hockey Publisher
There aren’t many people in the state of Minnesota who have provided as many hockey opportunites for youth hockey players than Pete Carlson. Carlson may not have ever won a big trophy as a player. He never served behind the bench of a Minnesota blueblood program. He never led a team to a title from the front office. But he played an integral role in the fabric of hockey in Minnesota by managing the country’s largest indoor hockey facility for 29 years. In those years Carlson was responsible for filling 18,000 hours of ice time per year. And he did so by sticking to three principles: saying yes, having a purpose, and creating opportunities. Carlson was the recipient of the Herb Brooks Foundation Youth Hockey Hall of Fame Award, presented August 3 at Dellwood Country Club. “He is a real hero in the game of hockey,” said Dan Brooks, son of legendary coach Herb Brooks, before presenting Carlson with the prestigious honor that began in 2005. “His biggest impact on the game wasn’t something that was glamorous, but very much needed and under appreciated.” Carlson operated behind the scenes to ensure the Super Rink stayed busy, providing opportunities for players, teams and leagues from all over the world. He oversaw the transition from four sheets of ice to eight, and was largely responsible for making sure those sheets stayed full not just during the hockey season, but the summer months. Carlson worked extensively in helping creating ice time through camps, clinics and tournaments, giving players a year round venue in the heart of the metro. When it was built in 1998 there wasn’t a facility of its stature anywhere in the country. There still isn’t. In 2006, in addition to four more sheets of ice, Carlson helped spearhead the Herb Brooks Training Center and the addition of more locker rooms. Carlson said he was humbled to be given an award in a room where members of the 1980 Olympic team, former NHL players, and other Minnesota hockey legends were in attendance for the annual Herb Brooks Foundation Golf Tournament.

al championship. I haven’t won a Stanley Cup or a Gold Medal. And all of that is in this room. And I think why am I up here?” Carlson said it was because he said yes, had a purpose, and that led to creating opportunies. He recalled meeting with hockey legends Larry Hendrickson and Ted Brill about creating opportunities for youth hockey players. “And then Herb stepped in and I said ‘no way, I am sitting here with Herb Brooks,’” Carlson recalled. “Herb didn’t tell us what we should do, he asked us what we were going to do. What is it we should do to get kids on the ice. I learned the word opportunity from Herb.” Throughout his 29 years at the Super Rink, Carlson helped provide ice time for tens of thousands of hockey players of all ages, but specifically had a huge impact on youth hockey. Over the past three decades hockey has boomed in the northwest metro and the Super Rink has
served as home ice for several area associations. “We provided tons of opportunity for these kids,” he said. “Camps and clinics and tournaments…people from around the world coming to the Super Rink. Seeing the players, the coaches, the logos, the D1 teams, scouts scouting kids. I’ve seen them all. It’s been fantastic.” All because he said yes to the job. “The opportunities were amazing, and it really gave me purpose,” he said. “Every single day at the super rink I had purpose and when you have purpose you can do some fun things.” Carlson retired from the Super Rink this past winter and has since taken on the job as director at Heartland Hockey Camp in Deerwood, Minnesota. He is still working with young hockey players and living by his steadfast principles. “Say yes, create opportunity, have a purpose,” he said. “I am going to continue to do that.”
MANKATO HOCKEY continued from page 5______________________________________________________________ of time, resources and ideas from a variety of sources. “From the people getting kids involved at the grassroots level, to the youth coaches who donate a ton of time to help develop players, to the Mavericks coaches and staff, I don’t know if you’ll find a community more willing to give back,” said Darren Blue, former MSU defenseman, longtime assistant coach and currently a member of MAHA’s hockey operations committee. “Another fun thing is we’ve got more coaches and parents that are second generation hockey people getting involved in the game and running our teams.” According to Blue, a turning point in MAHA’s player development model was around five years ago, where a newly established hockey development committee implemented a 6-8 week, pre-season program for players at the Squirt level, giving them the chance to get on the ice together 4-5 times a week, focus on skating, puck handling and hockey sense, and get to know each other before the formal start of the season.
Instead of the old way of having a tryout and getting placed on a travel team and sticking with that group, players were divided up equally into development teams. Then, after that program they joined their travel teams. It also engaged more than 30 coaches in the process. Bohm says the teams that went to State this past season were all part of the first group that went through two years of that Squirt in-house model. “We’ve really seen this model impact not just the skill level of our players and the depth of our teams, but the camaraderie across all teams,” said Blue. “These kids get to know each other and be teammates for a couple months at the start of the season. Now our Bantam As are going to watch Bantam B games and Peewee As are going to the Peewee C games, as they all have teammates in the different groups. The support for one another in Mankato has grown along with the talent of our players.” Skating on Rinks of Dreams The variety of ice sheets that skaters
have access to in Mankato – both inside and outside – are also extremely unique and add to the “secret sauce” that makes Mankato hockey what it is today. Bohm believes the facilities themselves help provide some of the draw to the roughly four tournaments MAHA hosts each year. Players in Mankato have access to both modern and old-school facilities to enjoy the game including the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center where the Mavs play, the recently renovated All Seasons Arena, the UNRL Rink at the Pond on Madison (a three-quarter sheet which MAHA’s Mites call home), and the outdoor rink at Spring Lake Park. The coolest backdrop for hockey may be the legendary Schulz Rink of Dreams, a regulation-size rink built inside of a huge farm machine shed that is managed by the family of late farmer Paul Schulz and sustained by community donations, offering free ice time in the winter months for area kids. “That this is a local family giving
back, and all the volunteers it takes to get folks out there, the Rink of Dreams really brings you back to the historic roots of the sport,” said Bohm. “It’s such a fun atmosphere, once you get in there and experience it. Kids and parents always come away with big smiles on their faces.” Despite having access to a variety of facilities, MAHA shares ice with several groups, including the Mankato Figure Skating club, meaning ice time can still be tight at times. It just speaks to the continued growth of hockey in the region, and, according to Blue, the passion folks in Mankato have for the game. “This sport runs deep in a lot of people here, and there are so many behind the scenes who are investing their time and talents to allow for these kids to play this game we all love,” Blue said. “I think we have a lot of great people pulling the rope in the same direction. We want to keep as many kids involved in the game and enjoying it for as long as they can.”

Barry Was A Beauty.

John King writes about his chance encounter with one of his hockey heroes by JOHN KING
www.pulltabsports.com
It wasn’t hard to come up with a title for this piece. I had the pleasure of a chance encounter with Barry Melrose ten years ago. Barry was one of my heroes, he was on the Mt. Rushmore of “beauties” who worked in the sports business, and there weren’t many of them: see Feherty . . .golf. see Barkley . . .basketball. see Madden . . .football. Barry Melrose was a color guy in the increasingly play-by-play world of sports. More accurately, Barry was a colorful guy. He had the suits that looked like they were pulled straight from Larry Johnson and Stacey Augmon’s closets at UNLV. He had the twinkle in the eye, the generous laugh – and, sweet Jesus, he had the mullet. Every morning when I get out of the shower, I slick my hair back. I probably shouldn’t, it’s not the most flattering for the hairline or any spots that might be thinning. But there’s an entire generation of men who started their days this way. Think Brylcreem, Aqua Velva, Brut by Fabergé, and probably some male jewelry. Barry was this type of guy, a Mohican. A larger-than-life character. A theydon’t-make-them-like-they-used-to-guy. If you’re reading this, you probably already know Barry Melrose is awesome, so I’ll get to my story. About 10 years ago someone from ESPN reached out to me and said that they were planning to come to the Boy’s Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament, and they wanted to do a feature on the All Hockey Hair Team. But there was a catch. They were only going to do the visit if I agreed to reveal myself as the creator of the hair videos. Truth is, even back then, it was the world’s worst kept secret that I was making the Hockey Hair Videos. But I had never officially acknowledged it. In a stroke of rare brilliance, I said, “I’ll do it, but can I pick who pulls the mask

Barry enjoyed a good cigar and a couple drinks at the John King household along with (from left) Tom King, Barry, Mike King, John King, and Nick Guzzo.
My wife made a panicked call to me at the office in Minneapolis, “You need to get home, now. Barry Melrose is sitting in our kitchen eating sandwiches.” off?” ESPN asked who I wanted to do the reveal, and I didn’t hesitate, “Barry Melrose.” Much to my surprise, they agreed to it, and I officially had a date with one of my heroes, Barry Melrose. Before the ESPN team landed in Minnesota, or Minneflowta as they would coin it, I did make one more additional request. I asked one of the ESPN producers if Barry would be willing to hang out at my house for a bit after we made the video to have some drinks and smoke some cigars with my brothers and a close buddy. ESPN said they would ask Barry. About a week later the producer called me back and said, “Barry said yes, as long as they’re good cigars.” Legend. As it would turn out, Barry showed up a few hours early for the E:60 Hockey Hair Team shoot at my home in White Bear Lake. My wife made a panicked call to me at the office in Minneapolis,
“You need to get home, now. Barry Melrose is sitting in our kitchen eating sandwiches.” By the time I made the commute home to White Bear Lake, Barry had sampled most of the tin foil wrapped sandwiches my wife had in the oven. He then joined my family as we selected that year’s All Hockey Hair Team together in my living room. Barry just sat in the chair next to me laughing as he watched the footage of all the kids skating up to the blueline. He had a bunch of one-liners, most of which we couldn’t use (“you’d think twice about taking a quarter from that kid!”). It was seamless, it was fun, it was Barry. After we got done making the video, Barry was a man of his word and joined us on my porch for cigars and some drinks. Barry ended up bringing his own cigars. He drank red wine; we had beers and he told stories and made us all laugh.
For one night, Barry made my porch in White Bear Lake feel like a hot-stove session in an NHL locker-room. They always say you’re not supposed to meet your heroes, because they’ll only let you down. Whoever said that never met Barry Melrose, because he was the genuine article. As cool as you thought he was, he was an even better dude. For the next couple years, every time the new hockey hair video would come out Barry would call me from Florida. I remember he was so happy the one year I had selected a girl as #1. He thought that was so cool, and good for the sport. Every time he made that call it shocked me. My wife and I would be driving around in our car someplace, and the phone would light up, and it would be Barry Melrose giving me an attaboy on the latest hockey hair video. A kind gesture he certainly had no obligation to do. I kept in touch intermittently with Barry over the years. When his surprise Parkinson’s diagnosis hit the news, we connected because I wanted to do a content series called, “Barry Isn’t Dead” where he’d go to bucket-list hockey experiences and document the occasion like only Barry could. At the time Barry explained to me that he was doing okay, he just couldn’t travel and the Parkinson’s had made it hard for him to be live on camera. I know Barry would laugh today, thinking of that “Barry Isn’t Dead” pitch as he looks down on us from hockey heaven. I believe when we chatted, he said someone was already working on a Barry documentary. I truly hope that’s the case, because we all could use a little more Barry Melrose in our lives. Hockey will miss you, Barry. We will miss you, Barry. Thanks for always being you. You can read more from John King at www.pulltabsports.com.

The Real Meaning of Fun What kind of memories are we helping create?
by MICHAEL SCHWARTZ
Let’s Play Hockey Columnist
Author’s Note: This article is dedicated to the thousands of volunteer coaches who quietly shape young lives, often without realizing the lasting impact they have.
ey.
“Nobody organized us. Nobody scheduled us. We just played. Looking back, I don’t even remember many of the games. I remember the people.”
Fun. We hear it all the time in youth hock-
“We just want the kids to have fun.” But what does fun really mean? The answer depends on who’s answering the question. For a player, fun might be scoring a goal, making a great play, or simply being with friends. For a parent, it’s watching their child grow in confidence, learn to overcome adversity, and become part of something bigger than themselves. For a referee, it’s skating a competitive game where the players—not the officials—determine the outcome. For an organization, it’s creating an environment where players can’t wait to come back. For a coach, it’s something different. A coach’s job isn’t to make hockey entertaining. It’s to create an environment where players become connected to the game and to one another. When I look back on my playing and coaching career, I realize the moments that stayed with me weren’t always the ones that felt like the most fun at the time. I once heard Herb Brooks answer a question about the most enjoyable experience of his hockey career. Most people expected him to say coaching the 1980 U.S. Olympic team. Instead, he talked about winning the Minnesota State High School Championship with his buddies at St. Paul Johnson. Here was a man who reached the highest level of hockey, yet the memory he treasured most wasn’t the Olympic gold medal. It was the people he shared the journey with. When I look back on my own hockey life, I understand exactly what Herb meant. I grew up playing outdoor hockey on the East Side of St. Paul. We practiced Tuesday and Thursday evenings, played on Saturday afternoons, and some of the best hockey happened between practices. We’d gather at Hayden Heights Playground, pick teams, and skate until we couldn’t feel our toes. If there weren’t enough players, we’d shovel another section of ice and start another game. Nobody organized us. Nobody scheduled us. We just played. Looking back, I don’t even remember many of the games. I remember the people. One of those people was Wes Barrette. Wes was a bricklayer by day, and every evening he volunteered at the rink. For more than 45 years, he quietly invested in generations of kids on the East

Wes Barrette loaded us into the back Back then, I don’t think of his big blue truck and any of us even knew what took us to Sambo’s for hot the word “culture” meant. chocolate before driving us home. He simply lived it.
We made it to the Minnesota State Championship in International Falls and lost 4-3 in double overtime. We outshot them 47-17. Sometimes, despite your best efforts, things don’t go your way. At the time, the loss was devastating. Today, it isn’t the first thing I remember. I remember my teammates. I remember Wes. I remember believing in one another. Now, don’t misunderstand me. Competition matters. Winning matters. Every kid keeps score. Every coach wants to win. Wes did. So did I. Competition teaches lessons that nothing else can. Preparation. Discipline. Sacrifice. Resilience. Humility in victory. Grace in defeat. But winning and relationships aren’t competing priorities. The best teams don’t become close because they win. More often, they win because they become close. Maybe that’s why the championships fade…but the teammates never do. Why is this important? Because one day every young hockey player will play their last game. Only a handful will play Division I hockey. Even fewer will play professionally. For almost every child who laces up a pair of skates, hockey won’t become a career. It will become a memory. Most of the players we coach won’t make a living playing hockey. But every one of them can leave the game with something even more valuable. Confidence. Character. Lifelong friendships. Memories they’ll carry forever. The question is…What kind of memories are we helping create? Years from now, they probably won’t remember every practice plan or every system we taught. They may not even remember every big game. But they’ll remember how they felt walking into our locker room. They’ll remember whether they belonged. They’ll remember the teammates they laughed with. And if we’re fortunate…They’ll remember us the way I remember Wes Barrette. Not because we taught them hockey. But because we taught them that hockey was always about something much bigger. I think that’s the real meaning of fun. The measure of a coach isn’t how many players make it to the next level. It’s how many former players still smile when they hear your name. I hope every young player is fortunate enough to have a Wes Barrette somewhere along the way. I know I was.

NAHL announces schedule for 2026 Showcase The “Greatest Show on Ice” returns to Blaine, Minn., as the North American Hockey League’s 2026 Showcase will be held from Sept. 23-26, 2026. This year’s showcase features each NAHL team participating in three out-of-division games, with the United States National Team Development Program (USNTDP) joining the annual event and facing NAHL teams. This tournament is one of hockey’s most prominent and popular events for the entire season and has become known as the “Greatest Show on Ice.” Having every NAHL team in the building for scouts across the country to come watch the league’s athletes have become a cornerstone for the hockey scouting community. The yearly event brings together every NCAA program and NHL team for their first look at some of the best and brightest hockey talent North America has to offer. “Everyone looks forward to the ‘Greatest Show On Ice’ where so many great players get to compete in front of so many NCAA coaches and NHL scouts,” said NAHL Commissioner and President Mark Frankenfeld. “The competition and skill is very high, players will earn commitments during the event or get placed on a ‘must watch list’. With so much hockey under one roof, the NAHL Showcase truly earns its reputation as the Greatest Show on Ice.” With over 400 NCAA commitments in the 2025-26 season, the league has now set a standard of 300+ NCAA
commitments in the last 10 years. The NAHL has become a stepping stone for athletes looking to play NCAA hockey. Out of the college commitments the league has seen this past season, 54% of those commitments are NCAA Division I. Leading up to the 2026 NHL Draft, nine athletes with NAHL ties are featured on the NHL Central Scouting Final Rankings. For more information on the NAHL Showcase, including schedule, hotels, rental cars, and arena information, visit www.nahl.com/showcase or scan the QR code. Event passes are on sale now.
All 55 NAHL Showcase games will be broadcasted live and in HD on NAHLTV. Alongside the NAHL teams, over 100 Tier I programs will call Blaine, Minn., home that weekend. The NAHL Showcase marks the opening weekend of the T1ER season for the 14U, 15U, 16U, and 18U divisions, and will feature elite T1ER talent from across the country, along with high-level guest teams from various top Tier I leagues, including programs from Minnesota’s High Performance (HP) program, all flocking to the state for this premier event. Additionally, the weekend will serve as the second league weekend for the FALL League. The North American Hockey League (NAHL) is one of only two USA Hockey-sanctioned, tuition-free junior leagues in the United States, alongside the United States Hockey League (USHL). The NAHL develops young men through elite hockey competition, comprehensive training, and unmatched exposure. The NAHL provides a proven pathway to college hockey and beyond, preparing athletes for success both on and off the ice.

Current and former NAHL players selected in ( ( every round of 2026 NHL Draft
FRIDAY|6:30PM|RINK 4 VS. LONE STAR BRAHMAS
SATURDAY|6:30PM|RINK 4 VS. FAIRBANKS ICE DOGS
Nine players with North American Hockey League (NAHL) ties were selected in the 2026 NHL Draft, which was held at the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York from June 26-27, 2026. For the 2025-26 season, the League of Opportunity had two players drafted in the annual 2026 NHL Draft. Playing a full season for the New Hampshire Mountain Kings, Mikhail Cherepanov was taken in the seventh round, 219th overall, by the Dallas Stars. The 6-foot-2 defenseman from Russia was dominant from the blue line, earning recognition as a young ‘08 player in the League of Opportunity. Cherepanov is etching his name in NAHL record books as the first full-season skater to be drafted directly from the NAHL since 2018. This season, the blueliner laced up for 56 games with the Mountain Kings. He scored five goals and made 26 assists in his rookie season. His 31 points on the year were one of the highest amongst rookie skaters, earning him a spot on the 2025-26 All-Rookie Team. In addition, Cherepanov was selected as a Top Prospect on the Selects White roster at the 2026 Top Prospects Tournament. His work on the ice helped the Selects White defeat the USNTDP on day one of the annual event. In addition to earning awards, Cherepanov secured a Division I commitment to Lake Superior State University during his year with New Hampshire.
: INDICATES PLAYER WITH COLLEGE COMMITMENT
Head coach of the New Hampshire Mountain Kings, Cam Robichaud, dives into detail on why Cherepanov is deserving of being drafted. “As an organization, we are ecstatic for Misha and his family. He’s a young player who came into the league and had a worker’s mentality. He transitioned from the midget level to the North American Hockey League in full stride. He had an opportunity at the halfway point of the season to kind of take over as our top-pairing defender on the left side, and he took it and ran with it from a production, physicality, and maturity standpoint. I think the North American Hockey League helped prepare him to become a more well-rounded, more mature player, and he is obviously seeing dividends from that, being drafted as a 2008 birth year player with two years of eligibility left. To see his name called to a program as prominent as the Dallas Stars, we as an organization are super happy and excited for him. We wish him the best moving forward, and we’re looking forward to where the future takes him.” Also taken in the seventh round of the NHL Draft and coming from the same hometown of Yekaterinburg, Russia, Artem Prima from the Minot Minotauros was drafted 211th overall by the Utah Mammoths. The ‘08 forward played with the Tauros for the first-half of the 202526 season. The 6-foot lefty played in
28 contests, tallying eight goals and 18 assists for Minot. The 18-year-old averaged nearly a point per game during his time in the Central Division, recording 26 points for the Tauros. In addition, he scored a game-winning goal and power-play tally during his time with Minot. Head coach of the Minot Minotauros, Cody Campbell, went into detail on why the town of Minot is thrilled for Prima. “The entire Minot Minotauros organization, fan base, and community is thrilled about Artem being selected in the NHL Draft today. We could not be happier that Artem’s effort and play are being rewarded by being drafted today. As an organization, we are proud to have played a role in his development process as a player and maturation as a young man. We wish him nothing but the best as he continues to pursue his goal of playing in the National Hockey League.” Seven more players with NAHL ties were taken in the 2026 NHL Draft. Starting things off on Friday night and drafted in the first round, former Bismarck Bobcat Chase Reid, was taken seventh overall by the Seattle Kraken. The 18-yearold from Michigan has become one of the top prospects for the 2026 NHL Draft thanks to his work from the blue line. The former Bobcat ranks second overall in the NHL Central Scouting Final Rankings. He played with Bismarck last sea-
son in 18 games, tallying six goals and six assists. His dominance from the blue line continued in the OHL with the Soo Greyhounds. This year, Reid earned the honor of representing the United States at the 2026 IIHF World Junior Championship. His ability as a two-way defenseman was evident at the annual event, as the blueliner recorded four points, scoring two goals and making two assists as the youngest member of Team USA. Head coach of the Bismarck Bobcats, Garrett Roth, dived into detail on why Reid is deserving of this opportunity. “Chase has continued to stay humble, work hard and be where his feet are. He came to Bismarck wanting to get better and prove himself. He did that with a great attitude and a confidence that 16 year olds don’t often possess. What he has accomplished is a testament to his faith and will to battle through adversity and whatever life throws at you. In sports, he is a true inspiration for players that are not on the fast track but can still achieve their dreams.” Moving into the second round, former St. Cloud Norsemen Timofei Runtso was taken 57th overall by the Montreal Canadiens. Runtso was projected as a potential second-round pick, and the

As tryouts loom, some quick tips to prepare for the season
Sean Skahan offers tips on building and maintaining strength during the season
Skahan: “There is a point where the volume of strength and conditioning needs to scale back during the hockey season. I dont necessarily think that lower body strength training needs to stop or decrease in comparison to other areas in the body. However, during the season, strength training should be lowered. For example, you may do 3-4 sessions during the off/season or pre/season. In/Season should be 2 workouts per week. Allowing for proper recovery time before the next game. Lower body strength training should always be included.”

The clanging of lockers opening and closing in school hallways marks the end of summer and the start of fall. For hockey players, it means summer fun has turned into fall focus as tryouts loom and kids prepare for the upcoming season. Let’s Play Hockey talked with former NHL Strength and Conditioning Coach Sean Skahan on some tips to not just build, but maintain strength throughout the season. Skahan is the former strength and conditioning coach for the Anaheim Ducks and the Minnesota Wild. He helped the Ducks to a Stanley Cup title in 2007. Skahan now operates at two facilities in the metro – Woodbury and Ham Lake. Here is our Q and A with Sean: LPH: With tryouts looming, what should be some areas of focus when it comes to strength and conditioning?
Skahan: “With tryouts coming, strength and conditioning should be aimed at peaking for power and strength. For power, the emphasis should be on being as explosive as possible which can help with acceleration on the ice. Total body strength should also be at the best you can possibly be. This is for being able to be the strongest player that you can be with the season coming up. Strength is important for being able to withstand collisions and also be able to be forceful in collisions you initiate. Conditioning should be primarily on the ice at this time. More sessions with reps with purpose and attention to detail.”

LPH: Herb Brooks once said the legs feed the wolf. From a conditioning standpoint, what should a player be doing now to prepare for the rigors of the regular season?
Building and maintaining strength is key to being able to withstand collisions and to be forceful in collisions a player initiates, says former NHL Strength and Conditiong Coach Sean Skahan. LPH: Obviously lower body strength is essential, but what are some exercises young players should be doing to build core and upper body strength.
Skahan: “Yes, lower body strength is essential. However, the upper body and core areas are equally important. I think every young player should be performing strict pull ups. More importantly, they should be able to perform them. I believe that the ability to do pull ups properly is an indication that players have strong, healthy shoulders. Once they can do them, they should never lose the ability to do them. The same thing with the Push Up. Push Ups need to be done with proper form and it is an exercise that not many can do properly. Think plank position, belly button pulled through your spine, and flat back. Unfortunately, this
is the time of year when teams may be performing Push Ups and the reality is that they aren’t doing them correctly. What is great about those 2 exercises is that there is optimal “core” demand. For specific exercises for the Core, we stay away from traditional crunches and sit ups. The Hip Flexors are getting plenty of work with skating and we dont want to overdo it with those muscles. Our Core program is based on planks, side planks and anti- extension exercises such such as push up walk outs, roll outs, and fall aways.” LPH: Speaking of lower body, at what point should a player scale back on lower body strength training since they will be on the ice a lot more once the season begins.
“Always be strength training. There is absolutely no reason at all to not continue to get stronger. Why put it in all the work up to this time of year and then stop? To me, it is the best way to get injured and not play up to full capability. That being said, continue what you are doing but decrease the number of sessions. Total body strength training twice per week, off-ice sprints twice per week. Let the practices and games handle the conditioning component.” LPH: What are 5 go-to dryland exercises a player can do to best prepare for tryouts and the upcoming season? 1- 1-Leg Squat 2- Pull Up 3- 1-Leg Straight Leg Deadlift 4- Incline Press 5- Trap Bar Jump For videos on the proper technique for the above exercises go to: https:// letsplayhockey.com/as-tryouts-loomsome-quick-tips-to-prepare-for-the-season/
PLAY FOR PATRICK STATISTICS Patrick Schoonover Foundation FROM AUGUST 2015 TO MAY 2026, THE PATRICK SCHOONOVER HEART FOUNDATION CONDUCTED 44 PLAY FOR PATRICK HEART donates lifesaving AEDs SCREENS, SCREENED 7,802 KIDS, FOUND 558 WITH ELEVATED BLOOD PRESSURE (WITH REPEATED CHECK), 418 WITH ABNORMAL ELECTRIto area hockey rinks CAL OR STRUCTURAL HEART DEFECTS, TAUGHT 6,886 KIDS & ADULTS
The Patrick Schoonover Heart Foundation announced today a statewide effort to make Minnesota hockey arenas Heart Safe by donating FREE Lifepak CR2 WiFi enabled automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and three years of service and maintenance to rinks that do not currently have a working or up to date device. This initiative, part of the Play For Patrick Heart Safe Arenas Project, aims to ensure that every player, coach, official, and spectator has immediate access to lifesaving equipment in the event of sudden cardiac arrest. The project honors Patrick Schoonover, a 14-year-old Eastview hockey player who tragically suffered sudden cardiac arrest on November 14, 2014, at the Brainerd Arena during the Blue Ox Bantam AA tournament. Moments after scoring his first Bantam AA goal, Patrick collapsed on the ice. The medical examiner later found he had two undiagnosed heart defects. In the wake of their loss, the Schoonover family created the Patrick Schoonover Heart Foundation to prevent other families from experiencing the same heartbreak. Through its Play For Patrick program, the foundation provides free heart screenings for youth ages 13–24,

teaches hands only CPR and AED awareness, and donates AEDs to schools and communities across Minnesota.“ “Patrick was always a protector. Placing AEDs, especially in hockey rinks throughout the state, helps us feel Patrick is still doing so,” the Schoonover family shared. Beginning in September, the Schoonover’s will personally deliver AEDs to arenas across Minnesota. This marks the first phase of a long-term effort to ensure every hockey facility in the state is equipped to respond to cardiac emergencies. The foundation encourages coaches, players, parents, and rink staff to learn hands only CPR and AED awareness—simple skills that dramatically increase survival rates. “Making arenas Heart Safe is something every community can rally behind,” said Mike Schoonover, Director of the Patrick Schoonover Heart Foundation. “An AED and a few minutes of training can be the difference between life and death.”

One thing athletes forget when it comes to being a college hockey player
by PAUL ANTONENKO
Let’s Play Hockey Contributor
Over the years, I have had the privilege of coaching outstanding athletes throughout Minnesota in the Minnesota Hockey High Performance Program, boys high school hockey, and girls high school hockey. One of the most rewarding parts of coaching is talking with young players who dream of playing college hockey. Today, reaching that goal is more competitive than ever. Between roster limitations, evolving eligibility rules, an increasingly global recruiting landscape, and the sheer number of talented athletes pursuing college opportunities, earning and keeping a collegiate roster spot has never been more challenging. When I talk with eighth, ninth, and tenth grade athletes about what it takes to play at the next level, the answers are usually exactly what you would expect. Players tell me they need to become stronger skaters, better puck handlers, and more accurate shooters. They talk about hockey IQ, confidence, competitiveness, leadership, and being great teammates. Goalies discuss positioning, rebound control, and making the second and third save. They mention physical development, mental toughness, and having a positive impact in the locker room. The list goes on and on. Then I ask a simple question: “What else?” Eventually, most players run out of answers. And almost every time, one critical factor is missing from the list. Their parents usually get it immediately. Grades. Her academic record expanded her opportunities rather than limiting them, and ultimately, she earned the opportunity to play college hockey at Harvard. Was that opportunity created solely because of her grades? Of course not. She earned it through years of dedication, sacrifice, and excellence both on
and off the ice. But her story serves as an important reminder. Being a great hockey player opened the door. Being a great student helped ensure that the door remained open. And that lesson applies far beyond the Ivy League. Whether a player’s goal is Division I, Division III, ACHA, junior hockey, or simply attending a great college, academic performance matters. Admission is only the beginning. We spend countless hours and significant resources developing athletes physically, emotionally, and mentally. We invest in skill development, strength training, camps, private lessons, video analysis, and travel. Yet one of the most important factors in determining whether a player can compete at the collegiate level is often treated as an afterthought. The reality is simple: before a college coach can place your name on a roster, the institution must first be willing to ad-
mit you. Athletic talent may help create opportunities, but academic performance often determines which opportunities are actually available. Strong grades expand options. Weak grades can significantly limit them. I was reminded of this through one of the players I had the opportunity to coach several years ago. She was an exceptional hockey player. She was talented, competitive, coachable, and a tremendous teammate. She worked hard, loved the game, and possessed many of the qualities coaches look for in prospective student-athletes. But what truly set her apart was that she approached the classroom with the same commitment she brought to the rink. She excelled academically. Once on campus, student-athletes must continue meeting academic standards in order to remain eligible to compete. The discipline, responsibility, and
time management required to succeed in the classroom are many of the same qualities that help athletes succeed in their sport. As another school year begins, especially for students entering ninth and tenth grade, this is an important reminder. The habits established during these years can have a lasting impact on future opportunities. Every player should continue working to become a better skater, a better shooter, a better teammate, and a better competitor. Those skills matter. But so do report cards. The dream of playing college hockey is built on far more than what happens at the rink. Success requires commitment in the classroom, dedication at home, and discipline every day. For parents, coaches, and mentors, perhaps one of the most valuable things we can do is remind young athletes that education is not separate from their hockey journey. It is a critical part of it. Hockey eventually ends for every player. Education lasts a lifetime. The next time a player tells you everything they need to do to play college hockey, ask them one simple question: “What else?” If grades are not on their list, they should be. Paul Antonenko is a longtime Minnesota hockey coach, scout, evaluator and writer with more than three decades of experience in the game. A former high school goaltender, he has coached at multiple levels and served as head coach of Orono girls’ hockey from 2023–24 through 2025–26. In three seasons at Orono, Antonenko compiled a 56-26-5 record, won two section championships and led the Spartans to two Minnesota State Tournament appearances, including consecutive third-place finishes. Throughout his coaching career, he has also helped multiple players advance to junior hockey and to NCAA Division I and Division III hockey programs for both men & women. For the past several years, Antonenko has also coached with the Minnesota Hockey High Performance program. A USA Hockey Level 5 coach and Level 4 referee, he has worked in player development, evaluation and scouting. He brings a coach’s perspective to hockey coverage, with particular interests in player development, high school hockey, recruiting and the continued growth of the game in Minnesota.

Beyond Your Wildest Dreams
www.letsplayhockey.com
We seem to live in a different dream world today by DAN BAUER
Let’s Play Hockey Contributor
In the sports movie classic Hoosiers, with his Hickory Huskers team one win from the state finals, Coach Dale tells his team, “I’m sure going to the State finals is beyond your wildest dreams, so let’s just keep it right there.” The real 1954 Milan High School Indians (enrollment 161) made that wildest dream come true defeating the mighty Muncie Central Bearcats (enrollment 1,662), to become the smallest school to win the single-class Indiana state basketball championship. Fantastic movie, real life story and sage advice. THE DREAM Youngsters have been dreaming about winning championships in dramatic fashion and becoming professional athletes for roughly the last one hundred years. From sandlots to frozen ponds to backyard football games, they have been playing out that dream of scoring the overtime game-winner, hitting the walk-off homerun or tossing that Super Bowl clinching touchdown pass. It’s one of childhood’s liberties that lives on as a cherished memory. The athletic fantasies of my childhood were my dreams, and my parents seemed to have enough common sense to realize the ferocity of the odds that professional sports were in my future. My passion for sports was developed in my neighborhood and guided mostly by me. I learned to love the game itself and played many sports throughout my life, eventually turning that passion into coaching and writing about it. We live in a very different dream world today. PARENTS Today, this dream is routinely hijacked by parents and redirected into a race toward a D1 college scholarship. What was once considered a rare privilege is now too often treated as an expectation, and anything short of D1 can feel like failure. A priceless journey once built on love for the game and hard-earned life lessons has become a checkbook competition, with families spending heavily in pursuit of that winning lottery ticket. Kids today are mere pawns in this extreme chess game of chance, with parents making all the moves. It starts early and is often driven by parents who project their aspirations onto their children. Allowing the game to be fun and nurturing a true passion for it is quickly replaced by a conveyor belt of skating clinics, specialized skill development, and a smorgasbord of “elite” teams.
When everything is elite, nothing is truly elite. Parents move from caretakers to masters of the hockey universe, focused less on whether their children are enjoying the game and more on positioning them for that wildest dream. They mistakenly believe they are the straw that stirs everything and the catalyst to make this dream come true. Unfortunately, they too often become the straw that breaks the camel’s back. I don’t want any youngsters to stop dreaming, but I do wish parents would stop believing they are the determining factor in making that dream a reality. If the premium priced path was the key to the D1 dream, then any player who followed it would succeed. The emotional stress and burnout are real consequences of this modern-day obsession to seek the grail of a D1 scholarship. June 15th used to represent the first phase of summer vacation, now it is D-Day for D1 dreamers. For every player who conquers this feat, there are hundreds who bitterly pack their skates away forever realizing that door isn’t going to open. It is a sad consequence of the pressure many athletes feel but are afraid to admit. The lottery ticket for a chance at a D1 scholarship comes at a much steeper price than the two dollars you spend at Kwik Trip. Many today have literally bought into the dream, investing an obscene amount of time, money and family sacrifice. PRICE PAID The short drive to the outdoor rink has been replaced by the grind of an endless hockey highway, filled with billboards and toll booths promising a guaranteed path to the dream. They sell exposure and top-level competition while slowly stealing away
unstructured ice time and crowding out family birthdays, church, and school. The financial price spins upward like our national debt as families write checks to skills coaches instead of spending time in the garage or backyard. And like gullible toddlers, parents buy the hype and guarantees of advisors who peddle the D1 dream regardless of the odds. If you are banking upon recouping your investment in the form of a scholarship, less than 1% of all D1 athletes receive a full ride, regardless of the sport. You don’t have to stay at a Holiday Inn Express to know that if you aren’t good enough, no amount of exposure will change a coach’s mind. That won’t stop a stable of elite programs trying to convince you that you must leave home to get the exposure you need. And that leads us to the social, emotional, and family price hitting ground zero when we ship our kids off to live with someone else instead of allowing them to experience high school in their hometown with their families and childhood friends. I am sure billet families are wonderful people with their hearts in the right place, but the responsibility of raising kids belongs to their parents. Crazy old school thinking, I know. This financial foot race doesn’t always focus on building good character, things like manners, respect, the ability to have a conversation with an adult, looking people in the eye, and accepting responsibility. Sometimes the priorities become toe-drags, goal totals and the number of Elite team jerseys you accumulate or skill development camps you can attend in one summer. The vital task of building confidence can turn into building arrogance, en-
titlement and fabricated confidence. Mark Johnson, who we should all listen to, told me in my interview with him last summer, “I think as parents we are looking for tools and sometimes, we must take a backseat and say does this make sense, is this going to help and is there a purpose to it?” Or is it another unnecessary expensive carrot driven by FOMO? With the speed and flashy talk of a carnival barker this skill development craze has convinced us that you can’t learn unless you are being coached. That training twelve months of the year is required to make the dream come true. It’s the narrative that fills the pockets of the hockey player development madness but has bankrupted the hockey sense we used to develop for free. Unstructured play is as rare as a pair of Cooperalls. CHOICE To be clear, each family has the right in this great country to chase that dream however they see fit. I don’t want any youngsters to stop dreaming, but I do wish parents would stop believing they are the determining factor in making that dream a reality. If the premium priced path was the key to the D1 dream, then any player who followed it would succeed. It’s the player, not the path that delivers the D1 dream. Those that have the financial resources to follow the money trail will always exist. I just want families to understand that there are alternate paths that don’t require a king’s ransom, traveling across the country or shipping your son or daughter off to be raised by someone else. According to Mark Johnson, who knows a thing or two about hockey, “Yeah, if you’re good enough somebody’s gonna see you.” The real dream for parents should be that your child learns all the valuable lessons that this experience provides free of charge. That they grow up with you and their siblings and take pride in playing for their hometown. And finally, that this great game becomes engrained in their life and at age forty they are still playing in a pickup league, or giving back to the game as an official, coach or youth board member. Or a sane hockey parent. That’s the dream. And it’s not wild, but it is attainable for all who pursue it Dan Bauer is a freelance writer, retired teacher and coach in Wausau, WI.

2026 NAHL DRAFT
continued from page 26 California native heard his name called on day two of the NHL Draft. The Miami University commit played a full season in the League of Opportunity for the Norsemen during his 2024-25 campaign. The 6-foot-2 blueliner laced up in 53 games for the Minnesota-based team. During his rookie season, the California native scored eight goals while making 19 assists for St. Cloud. One of his best contests last year was a three-point night against the Watertown Shamrocks. Runtso tallied two goals while making an assist in the 4-3 overtime victory. One of his tallies was the overtime game-winner for the Norsemen. His ability from the blue line in his rookie season earned him the honor as a Top Prospect for the Selects Gold roster at the 2025 Top Prospects Tournament. The awards and recognition did not stop there, as Runtso also went home with the NAHL Central Division’s Rookie of the Year title. Head coach of the St. Cloud Norsemen, Joe Exter, went into detail on what it means to see Runtso rewarded for his dedication. “Tim was rewarded today for all the work and sacrifice he has made over the
last two seasons. He has many strong qualities, his biggest one is his self belief. This strength will carry him throughout his hockey journey. Tim is a great example of how the NAHL environment challenges and develops young players to be ready for their next challenge. Tim took advantage of his opportunity with us and used it as a stepping stone to achieve a life long dream of being drafted.” In the third round of the NHL Draft, former New Hampshire Mountain King, Charlie Morrison, was drafted 77th overall by the New York Rangers. Morrison played a handful of games in the League of Opportunity during the 2023-24 season and got a taste of what junior hockey is all about with the East Division team. Heading into the fourth round, former Austin Bruin netminder Carl Axelsson was drafted by the Utah Mammoths 115th overall. The 19-year-old from Sweden dominated in the crease for the Bruins, spotlighting a 1.74 goals-against average and .937 save percentage in his 19 games played during the regular season. The 6-foot-4 ‘06 goaltender secured 14 wins and a staggering six shutouts in his regular season run. Head coach of the Austin Bruins, Steve Howard, shares what it means to see Axelsson be drafted. “We are thrilled to see Carl get drafted to the NHL. Since day one in Austin, his elite work ethic, character, and relentless drive have set him apart. He is a

phenomenal teammate and a fierce competitor who never stops grinding. Today is a great day for Carl, his family, and everyone who has supported him along the way.” In the fifth round of the NHL Draft, former Minnesota Wilderness blueliner Luken Huff was selected 148th overall by the Seattle Kraken. The ‘06 St. Thomas commit joined the Wilderness following his high school season with Wayzata. The 6-foot-3 righty laced up in 11 games for the Midwest Division team, getting his first taste of junior hockey. In the sixth round of the NHL Draft, former Anchorage Wolverines netminder, Roberto Henriquez was selected 170th overall by the Boston Bruins. The 6-foot1 goaltender from Slovakia played 24 games for the Wolverines in his rookie season. Henriquez was drafted by Anchorage in the 2024 NAHL Entry Draft in the ninth round, 312th overall. In his debut year, the 18-year-old featured a 2.49 goals-against average and .923 save percentage for the Alaska-based team. Henriquez is a Boston College commit and will be close to the Boston Bruins during his collegiate career. Rounding out the final NAHL player with ties taken in the NHL Draft, former Lone Star Brahmas goaltender Ryan Cameron was taken 212th overall in the seventh round by the Edmonton Oilers. Cameron made a splash in his rookie season in the NAHL. The ‘07 netminder
recorded a staggering 1.24 goals-against average and .948 save percentage in his rookie season of junior hockey. He produced nine shutouts in the regular season, recording 21 wins in net for the Brahmas. With his dominance in the blue paint, he earned call-ups with the USNTDP throughout the 2024-25 campaign and was named to the Selects Gold roster at the 2025 Top Prospects Tournament. Cameron backstopped the Brahmas in their full postseason run, helping his team make it to the Robertson Cup championship game. The Pennsylvania native recorded eight wins in his 10 playoff games, notching three shutouts in that span. Cameron earned a plethora of awards in his rookie season. He was named as the Rookie and Goaltender of the Year, to the All-Rookie Team, All-South Division Team, and as the South Division’s Rookie of the Year. In addition, he notched NAHL records in the process. He now holds the NAHL’s best goals-against average (1.24) and best save percentage (.948). Head coach of the Lone Star Brahmas, Dan Wildfong, went into detail on what it means to see Cameron be drafted. “We as an organization are obviously very proud of him. This could not have happened to a nicer guy that works his tail off. I can not say enough about his character and the way handles himself on and off the ice. He’s a pro already.”
