Friday night, Ethan Werek picked up his 2nd game of the year in his fourth game for Stouffville since returning from a tweaked knee.
In USHL play, newest 2008 recruit Chris Connolly scored a pair of goals—one shorthanded—and an assist to lead Omaha past his brother’s Sioux Falls team, 6-3. 2009 recruit Max Nicastro didn’t hit the scoresheet in Chicago’s first win of the season, but the 6-2 defenseman from California who is being mentored by Chicago Steel Coach Steve Poapst, a former Colgate standout and NHL blueliner, earned some praise from McKeen’s editor Max Geise:
Nicastro is an impressive prospect in his own right. He possesses a little bit of everything, with no glaring flaws. He can move the puck and play a physical game, but he projects to be a no-nonsense, shut down defenseman if he reaches the NHL.
Brian Durocher's women's hockey team, now in its third varsity season, opened its year in St. Paul playing two national powers, North Dakota and Minnesota in the Nike Bauer Women's Classic. The Terriers came away with a hard-earned 2-2 tie against the Sioux and fell to the 7th ranked Gophers, 4-2, after leading 2-1, after two.
