USA Today’s Kevin Allen looks at the crop of American 2018
draft prospects who are sons of former NHL players, including BU freshman Brady
Tkachuk, who earned Player
of the Game honors in Thursday night’s All-American Prospects Game.
● USA Today report
► Note: Tomorrow’s blog post will
include our annual Q&A interview with the Terrier Captain. Senior Brandon
Hickey answered our questions about his personal goals, expectations for the
team and which returning players he expects will take big steps up this season.
Also, we'll post results of the eighth annual Hockey
East media poll, conducted by the Hockey East Writers and Broadcasters
Association.
TheHockeyWriters.com’s list of top 100 previously-drafted prospects
includes current Terriers Dante Fabbro (40) Jake Oettinger (54) Jordan Greenway
(photo, 65) and former Terriers Charlie McAvoy (1), Clayton Keller (4), Kieffer
Bellows (67), Danny O’Regan (84).
Looking ahead
2018 recruit Ryan O’Connell, assisted on a pair of
third-period goals, including the game-winner, as BCHL Penticton edged Alberni
Valley, 3-2. For the 6’2” defenseman drafted by Toronto in the 7th
round this past June, it was his first point since joining the Vees this
season. Last season, O’Connell had 33 points in 47 games for St. Andrews
College in Ontario.

2018 recruit Matthew Quercia’s goal was the only tally for USHL Sioux Falls
in the Stampede’s 4-1
loss to Fargo. A power forward from Andover, Massachusetts, he is in his second USHL
season and previously played for the New Hampshire Junior Monarchs.

recap
2019 recruit Trevor Zegras’ second-period goal proved to
be the game-winner as the NTDP U17s defeated the Austin Bruins in the first
game of the NAHL Showcase Friday night. The 5-11 center from Bedford, NY led
Avon Old Farms in scoring as a sophomore last season with an 18-24-42 scoring
line in 28 games. The U17s play the Minnesota Magicians tonight.
Looking back
Bellows has signed a three-year entry level
contract with the New York Islanders who selected him in the first round of the
2016 draft. He will spend this season with the Portland Winterhawks of the WHL.
