UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

I saw this tweet regarding Northeastern's recruits:

Re: UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

Recent commit Henry Welsch is on the "Selects Blue" roster for the NAHL Top Prospects Tournament. It will take place in Attleboro, MA Feb 17-18. It is generally for uncommitted prospects, but I'm assuming since Welsch made a very recent commitment, he was allowed to stay on.

Re: UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

Neutral Zone has him as a 3.75* recruit. He was given an A grade in the 2018 Avon Old Farms Christmas Classic. They had this to say about him
Gabe is a strong skater who showed both offensive and defensive instincts here. Got around forecheckers easily and carried coast to coast to create on several occasion. Made a pretty rush and backhand pass on the tape pass for a goal on day one. Pushed bad gaps and can cut back and fire on the rush. Hit to defend and was excellent on the penalty as he showed an active stick and willingness to block shots. He has good size at around 6’ and moved well with lots of puck possession time. Played in all situations and is excellent on the power play. His shot is really hard and he can wrist, snap, slap or one time it on goal. Forced opponents to respect his firepower and that allowed Gabe to attack and create down lower in the zone. He played smart at both lines. He still had moments of high risk with the puck but overall, he was very good while playing big minutes and all situations.

Originally a long time PC commit. 3.75* recruit per NZ.

I think that's the Matt Allen who played in the NCDC and is a frosh F at Union and who was originally a PC recruit, vs. UML recruit Matt Allen who plays in the NAHL.

Re: UML Recruiting: Finally in the 20s!

If we are to continue to believe (and I do) that the USHL is the best spot to get kids committing from, then the lack of scoring coming from the USHL for the next year/two is going to hurt going forward. 5 of the top 7 scorers currently on the roster are from the USHL.

Currently we have 3 non-goalies committed to Lowell that are in the USHL, and only one is a forward.

Thanks for updating Middle Street.

I'm not sure if he's injured, but Jack Bayless has not played in the first two playoff games for Wenatchee.

I know. The only standout player coming in next season appears to be Ben Meehan, and he's lost a lot of development time with his injury.

I'd imagine the plan is for Henry Welsch to be the backup for Logan next season. I'm thinking Jack Bayless and Clark Kerner may be asked to play another season of junior, possibly Owen Cole as well.

I noticed that too. His last game was 2/16. He hasn't been very productive in the new year. 0 points in his last 10 games played.
