These days it is standard practice in the world of college hockey recruiting. Reform is needed.

Define competitive hockey east level.
They are a program situated in the bottom half of the league. Personally, I do not see it improving in the next few years.

Yup... that was more of the "damn I'm old" category comment when you see the actual birthdate.

Keep an eye on defenseman Philip Nyberg playing with the Madison Capitols of the USHL.
He is a 5th round pick of the Buffalo Sabres and has been committed to Wisconsin.
Planned on being at Wisconsin this fall but an admission issue delayed his enrollment.
UConn is showing interest.

UConn hockey is working hard to get recent commit Philip Nyberg in for the second semester. It’s a very real possibility

Buffalo Sabres prospect Philip Nyberg has played his last game in USHL. He will join UConn for the second semester. Big add for the Huskies.
