A nice article about York http://www.usahockey.com/news_articl...hl-stretch-run.

Brahmas Lean on Troy York in NAHL Stretch Run

03/02/2017, 1:30pm MST

By Tom Robinson


.York said he is simply doing “whatever it takes” to help the Lone Star Brahmas win North American Hockey League games.

For the last six weeks, when someone on the Brahmas needs to conjure up a winning moment, it has often been York providing the decisive goal.

York leads the NAHL in game-winning goals with eight. Most of them have come in this recent six-week stretch.
..

The 20-year-old from Dallas has six game-winning goals in the last 11 games. None were as dramatic as the latest, which came in the Feb. 24 game against the Corpus Christi Ice Rays.

That goal, which came with less than eight seconds left in overtime to produce a 2-1 win, can be tied to help from teammates, as York is always quick to credit for any success he has.

Austin O’Rourke handled the set-up in overtime.
..


O’Rourke started down the right wall and never stopped.

“He made a great play,” O’Rourke said. “He shielded the guy off and went beyond the net, then did a quick little cutback and threw it out front."

“I just happened to be there."

As he has done often lately, York handled the rest.

“I got a quick stick on it and put it in the net,” York said.

The goals are beginning to add up for York, who fell for hockey as a 3-year-old, watching the game with his father when the Stars, still relatively new to Dallas, won the Stanley Cup in 1999.

As he prepares to make the move to college hockey and hopes to land a late NCAA Division I offer, York has 21 goals and 14 assists in 40 games. He is second in goals and fifth in points on the well-balanced Brahmas, who have run away with the South Division.

Playing with the same linemates for “about 90 percent” of the season, after clicking when they were tried together at the opening NAHL Showcase in Blaine, Minnesota, has provided a boost for York.

Carson Kelley, the team leader in assists and points, centers a line that also includes Hunter Stanley.

“Coach put us together and everything since then started clicking,” said York, who made it to the Dallas Stars Triple-A youth program as a 12-year-old and began thinking college hockey was possible about three years later. “My linemates and some of the others guys out there on the ice with us have been helping me out in this stretch."

“I seem to be in the right spot or they seem to be in the right spot to make the play.”

York credits Stanley for opening up some space.

“I think we definitely bring some different skills,” he said. “Stanley’s a bigger player. He’s got skill, but he can definitely get into the corner and battle, shield a guy off and help make plays with two smaller players who can come it and take the puck and make another play after that."

“We’re different players, but we all have some skill and some grit to get down in the corners and work for the puck.”

York has shown he does not need the puck long to make something happen. The latest example was his first overtime goal in junior hockey, moving the Brahmas (37-12-1-0) one step closer to officially clinching the division title.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2016-17 Part II

A short recent article about York not having committed. http://www.tier2juniorhockey.com/new...d-96-troy-york

Uncommitted 1996 | Lone Star Brahmas Forward Troy York
The Uncommitted 1996 series continues, focusing on players aging out of Junior Hockey who have yet to commit to a University or advanced to a higher level of hockey for the 2017-18 season.

Forward Troy York began his Junior Hockey career with the Lone Star Brahmas for the 2015-16 season. The Texas native returned to the Brahmas in 2016-17, registering 24 goals and 17 assists for 41 points through the regular season. York's season began with a hat trick in game one on Saturday September 17, 2016 in a 7-1 victory over the Amarillo Bulls and he went on to earn a point in 30 contests including 9 multi point efforts.

The 5'9 190lb skater logged an additional 7 post season points, including the game winning overtime goal that propelled the Brahmas into the Robertson Cup finals and eventually to a Robertson Cup Championship.

York contributed to 21% of the Brahmas 2016-17 regular season goals and 22% of the teams overall post season goals.

That’s funny. Ralph & I were talking about him about 2 years ago.

So, it's not new Troy York, then, or is it?

Really doubt it since he is from Texas.

Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2016-17 Part II

With all the incoming changes for this coming year, it should be like the proverbial box of chocolates. Anyone who thinks they can accurately predict what we can expect has to be deceiving themselves. So many variables on the ice and behind the bench. Should certainly be interesting and perhaps exciting. Really looking forward to this season.

At least with this being a "first year", it's somewhat of a "nothing more to lose" situation, so I'm looking forward to everyone on the team grabbing the bull by the horns and going for it. Numbers look good, but we all know there's more to the game than that.

If anything expectations will probably be low, as the preseason ratings closely mirror end of last season unless there's something drastic.

Definitely more unknowns than knowns, at least for those of us not privileged to the locker room. But maybe the lack of experience at forward isn't a bad thing. How often do we see "bad habits" continue along, even during a coaching change? I seem to recall some things I didn't like too much from the Fridgen era that carried over to Appert; maybe it won't be as bad from Appert to Smith with said lack.

Burke's close to a point per game, and York wasn't too far off either, so that's at least positive news. You usually don't get numbers like that without some sort of offensive talent, so I have to think we'll be just fine. And if Cameron sticks around with his commit, all the better.
