He sports a 3.97 GAA during the USHL portion of the schedule with an .850 save percentage.

Slotted in at 83rd among N.A. skaters is 5’11”, 185 lb. Providence University freshman forward Tanner Adams. The Northport native spent the past two seasons with Tri-City in the USHL and was invited to this past summer’s Development Camp with Las Vegas.

Ranked 120th among N.A. skaters is Rye’s Drew Dellasalla, a 6’0”, 170 lb. New York City native who is skating with Omaha in the USHL. The 2025 Harvard commit has six goals with six assists over his first 27 games this season after he put up 44 points in 31 games with the Brunswick School last season.
