BU names Gaby Purer as DHO; Hutson dazzles in Montreal; Celebrini rookie card

For decades, USA Hockey's NTDP program has sent talented skaters and goalies to Terrier Hockey. Now that program is providing talent for Coach Jay Pandolfo's staff.

Gaby Turer joins Terrier Hockey as the new Director of Hockey Operations. She succeeds Doug Friedman who held the position for three seasons before leaving to take the head coaching job at Western Connecticut.

Last season, Turer, as USA Hockey's Brendan Burke Intern, was hockey operations manager for the U.S. Under-18 Men's National Team, who won silver at the World Juniors, and served on the NTDP U17 staff.

Previously, she was hockey operations and scouting intern for the USHL Green Bay Gamblers, responsible for scouting opposing teams and conducting individual player evaluations.

A Milwaukee native, Turer was a four-year player for St. Norbert's

Looking ahead

The BCHL West Kelowna Warriors, who begin exhibition games this weekend, will have their offense led by a pair of BU 2025 recruits. 

Two of the vets with much to prove this year are Jack Pridham (video) and Callum Hughes (photo), both of whom attended National Hockey League development camps over the Summer, as Pridham went to Chicago Blackhawks camp, while Hughes made the trip down to UBC for the Vancouver Canucks Dev Camp.  “I kinda feel like they just picked up where they left off,” said Warriors Head Coach Simon Ferguson of his two star forwards. “They were flying high in Playoffs last year… You see the type of dynamic players that they both are, so it’s exciting to get to see them compete [at that level].

Last season Pridham, a first-team BCHL All-Rookie, had 48 regular-season points (23G,25A) and added eight goals and three assists in 10 playoff games. Hughes had a 23-19-43 line in the regular season and nine playoff points.
