Thanks Scott. Smaller number than normal (if that's the final list).

Thanks Scott. Smaller number than normal (if that's the final list).

It's not final yet. There's still about 10 teams that haven't posted rosters for their development camps yet, and at least 1 or 2 more Lowell players should be on those lists.

Tough news for UVM as Ross Colton signs with Tampa Bay.

Article in today's Sun: Folin leaves UML, returns to Sweden

Even though July is just around the corner, UML's large incoming freshman class may increase by one, according to Bazin, if it's the right fit.

Interesting. Best of luck to Niklas.

I'm really surprised Goransson isn't participating in a development camp. I wonder if he's recovering from an injury.

[ScottK]

Buffalo is the new Pittsburgh. Two seasons ago, the Pens had 3 former RiverHawks on their roster (Hainsey, Wilson, Ruhwedel), now Buffalo has 2, possibly 3. Scott Wilson signed a 2-year extension with them today, Carter Hutton signed a 3-year deal with them today, and C.J. Smith was extended a qualifying offer, meaning that he'll be back with the club next season, hopefully in the NHL, not the AHL.

I'm still convinced Kenny Hausinger was injured for a majority of the year, looked like he a bad ankle sprain/foot injury. Always looked like he could only push off on his right foot

[chiefs11]

I really don't know what we have in next year's recruits at this point. Mostly '97s, mostly not from the USHL, and those that have put up serious points aren't doing it in the top Tier of Junior hockey.

Plenty of d on the way hope for the best need speed and a few snipers

From today's Sun: Bazin excited about 12-member incoming class

There's a slight chance the River Hawks will add a 13th member of the class before school starts.

Article in today's Lowell Sun on incoming freshmen including comments by Bazin.

[Turk_Sanderson]

I really hope the 13th kid is Andrick Armstrong watching his tape and comments made by Tim Whitehead make me believe he can be impact player on Day 1. Hockey players generally don't have that type of pure strength. It's going to be fun to watch him play in the corners.

Congrats to Hellebuyck ... easily the biggest contract any Lowell athlete has ever gotten.

@NHLJets
#NHLJets have agreed to terms with goaltender Connor Hellebuyck on a six-year, $37M contract ($6.167M AAV).

Congrats to Hellebuyck ... easily the biggest contract any Lowell athlete has ever gotten.

The alumni giving office is ecstatic.
