Maine Recruits: When Ashes Fall, Legends Rise

Kuzma Voronin drafted in CHL Import Draft by Moncton Wildcats. Could spend the year in USHL or QMJHL if he makes the team. CHL teams are now allowed 3 import players, both of the import players on Moncton's roster are in the OA year and NHL drafted.

Declan Wotton(‘09), from Windsor, Maine, made an all star team at tryouts for the four nations u17 team, but didn’t make the cut. Still, just being that close is very good. https://x.com/RNPressRoom/status/1940032757746319494

I noticed a couple Maine recruits(‘08s) are playing in the USA hockey 17 national festival in Amherst, NY. Rhys Medved is playing for the Mid-American squad. Jude Herron is playing for the New England squad.

Not sure if Maine is recruiting ‘08 RW Garrit Turcotte, but he is playing for New England and is from South Bewick, ME.

This is a tryout for the Hlinka Gretzky Cup camp invites. https://teamusa.usahockey.com/2025boys17camp

Another ‘08 to track hoping Maine is recruiting is Evan Ferraro, son of former Blackbear great Chris Ferraro. As most know, the Ferraro twins were freshmen along with Paul Kariya which made Maine into a juggernaut going 42-1-2 and winning their first national championship.

Evan is described as gifted offensive forward, silky hands, hard quick release, skates very well, good vision and playmaking.

Very encouraging.

On recruit Malachi McKinnon… it appears as though he is going Youngstown(USHL) instead of Penticton(WHL). Late last May, Penticton(WHL) acquired his signing rights from Tri-City(WHL). However, this article talks about his experience at Youngstown(USHL) development camp and how he is excited to play there this fall. https://www.tribtoday.com/sports/lo...uisition-malachi-mckinnon-already-fitting-in/
