USHL
- It took 3 minutes into the 4th OT but Sioux Falls defeated Sioux City 3-2 to win the series 2-0. Andre Lee had a goal and was named the 3rd star. Carl Berglund and Brian Chambers were scoreless. Sioux Falls will meet Waterloo in the next round. BCHL
- The Prince George Spruce Kings are the BCHL Champion as they defeated Vernon 3-1, sweeping the series 4-0. Logan Neaton faced 19 shots in the win. CCHL
- Ottawa defeated Carleton Place 2-1 tonight to take a 2-1 lead in the series. Owen Cole and Jackson Sterrett were scoreless.
Logan Neaton finished the BCHL playoffs with a 16-1 record, 94.0% save rate and a 1.46 GAA. Amazing stats.
I'm hoping people don't see those numbers and expect the same from him at this level when he gets here. That team in front of him is pretty amazing at PG.

It will be interesting to see how Prince George matches up against Brooks.
As Middle Street mentioned:
Next up for the Spruce Kings is a date with the AJHL-champion Brooks Bandits in the Doyle Cup. With Brooks hosting this year’s National Junior A Championship, both teams are guaranteed entry into the year-end tournament.

Not sure about you, but when I look up how the recruits did over a weekend, I don't usually pay much attention to how their team is doing in the standings. Apparently Brooks went 57-3 in the regular season, and 12-3 in the playoffs. I think that's a good example of how much more competitive the BCHL is compared to the AJHL.

Agree. The same can be said for player stats in some of these leagues.
Brooks completed the regular season with a record of 57-3, becoming the first team to ever record 57 wins, 114 points and setting a new league record with a 33-game win streak dating back to November 30th. The Bandits held an undefeated home record of 30-0, including 29-0 at the Centennial Regional Arena, setting another league record in a remarkable season.
UML hockey recruits involved in historic game
The Lowell Sun
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- Three UMass Lowell hockey recruits were part of an historic game Wednesday night.
Andre Lee, Brian Chambers and Carl Berglund went to bed happy -- and exhausted -- after their Sioux Falls Stampede defeated the Sioux City Musketeers, 3-2, in a four-overtime marathon before 4,295 fans.
It was the longest United States Hockey League game in the Tier 1 era. The game began at 7:05 p.m. and ended at 12:13 a.m. at the Denny Sanford Premier Center.
Lee, a forward, tied the game 2-2 in the third period. He was named the game's No. 3 star. Chambers and Berglund, also forwards, did not figure in the scoring.
Lee, Chambers and Berglund have little time to enjoy their historic victory -- Sioux Falls will play Friday in the Western Conference semifinals at Waterloo.
The other Western Conference semifinal has Des Moines facing off against Tri-City.
Another UML recruit, Matthew Brown, is one of the stars for Des Moines. He has three goals and an assist in two playoff wins after a 30-goal regular season. Brown, who led the USHL with seven shorthanded goals in the regular season, has one shorthanded tally in the playoffs.

This might affect some of the bigger name programs out there that consistently are getting commitments from 14/15 year old kids.

USHL
- Tri City defeated Des Moines 8-3 tonight to take game 1 of their best of 5 game series. Matt Brown had an assist in the loss.
- Sioux Falls scored with 30 seconds to go in the 1st OT to defeat Waterloo 3-2 to take game 1. Andre Lee assisted on the game winner. Carl Berglund and Brian Chambers went scoreless. CCHL
- Ottawa defeated Carleton Place 2-0 tonight to take a 3-1 lead in the series. Owen Cole and Jackson Sterrett did not score.
I just notice that Scott Owens is the coach of Sioux Falls. Scott was the head coach at Colorado College when Norm was there (8 yrs).
USHL
- Tri City defeated Des Moines 2-0 to take a 2-0 lead in the series. Matt Brown had 6 shots in the game.
- Waterloo defeated Sioux Falls 6-0 to even the series at a game a piece. Carl Berglund did not play. NAHL
Johnstown eliminated Northeast from the playoffs. Clark Kerner is injured and has not played since 3/17/19.
CCHL
- Ottawa defeated Carleton Place 4-2 to win the CCHL championship (Bogart Cup). Owen Cole had a goal in the game. Ottawa advances to the Fred Page tournament, which consists of the champions of the MHL and LHJAAAQ and a host team (Amherst - MHL). The tournament begins on May 1st and runs through the 5th.
19 players listed on the three teams. Of that, 14 are committed but only 5 heading East (one each to BU, UMass Amherst, Lowell and PC in Hockey East, and one to Harvard).
Of the 5 uncommitted players, it's tough to tell if they're still being recruited or just have no interest in college hockey?
