Hockey East here we come...roster make up for next season

General thought seems to be that Drake will be on campus 2015?

“@russbites: UConn keeping at for its upgrade to HE as adds shutdown D-man David Drake '95 (Des Moines). '13 7th rder of Flyers. Will do 1 more USHL yr.”

Saw a few similar comments to the above.

Common quote by college coaches so they dont have to field calls from the existing players who will be effected by incoming players ( looks like in this case the 2 current sophmore dmen who will be juniors next year). Drake is a 7th round NHL Draft pick who played in the USHL this past year im sure he will be on campus this fall. My buddy told me he is going through the application process for admission now.

I imagine he'll be on the ice this season, too. In part, that's the "sell" that UConn offers. Come with us and we'll get you on the ice this year. You won't have to spend another season in DesMoine or Bismark or wherever. The blue line is shaping up to be pretty good, I think.
