I moved Matthews to 2027. I don't think that we will be getting four defensemen unless several leave which seems unlikely. Similarly, I moved Chingwaru to 2028. I thought also about moving Gosselin to 2028 but I decided to wait until next year.

"Hometown" is sometimes where the player was born and sometimes where he or she currently lives.

[Ralph Baer]

Neutral Zone has not entered either Saturday 's or Sunday's Avon Old Farms boxscore. From information I can see on USHR, they defeated St. Mark's 4-2 in the Elite 8 tourney final. Not bad for the #8 seed. Ryan Hecker had no points in either game.

Neutral Zone has not entered either Saturday 's or Sunday's Avon Old Farms boxscore. From information I can see on USHR, they defeated St. Mark's 4-2 in the Elite 8 tourney final. Not bad for the #8 seed. Ryan Hecker had no points in either game.

The final game agreeing with the above. https://neutralzone.com/prep-boys/box-score-detailed/?game_id=9741 The semifinal game is still missing
