An offensive surge led by 10 point-getters during last week’s 5-2 win over Canisius saw Mercyhurst’s depth shine as the Lakers enter non-conference territory for the foreseeable future.

Cincinnati Cyclones goaltender Michael Houser had never been a stranger to having his story told.

Last Friday, Northern Michigan’s 5-foot-7 sophomore Mikey Colella fired in his 9th and 10th goals versus Ferris State to take the CCHA goal scoring lead. RinkRap’s @TeeRaps caught up with the Wildcats “Jersey Guy” to discuss his growing list of college hockey accolades, his affinity for all microphones, and the joy of playing alongside two gifted puck pals.

For a while, the good-natured joke had always been that Orlando Solar Bears goaltender Brad Barone has had so many stops in his professional career, they all wouldn’t fit on the back of his hockey card.

Originally, Lewis Zerter-Gossage’s “Ogretzkin” Twitter handle was a little bit of a tongue-in-cheek reference to a little self-deprecating humor he came up with when he was in and out of the lineup during his freshman year at Harvard.

Mat Robson is making the most of his first chance at a second impression.

If this whole hockey thing never worked out for Orlando Solar Bears head coach Drake Berehowsky, he says he would have wanted to be a teacher.

For nearly as long as the ECHL has been in existence—even dating back to the days where people were calling it the East Coast Hockey League and that was actually accurate—it seems there’s been no shortage of alumni making an impact at the National Hockey League level.

Last season the men’s hockey program at Canisius fought through a stop-and-go schedule, via postponements and holidays, finishing with an 11-6 overall record and 4th place finish in Atlantic Hockey.

It was never a question of skill for Michael Prapavessis. Simply one of fit.

To say Tyler Mosienko brings experience to the ECHL’s expansion Iowa Heartlanders would be a bit of an understatement.

Silly as it may seem on the surface, it’s not entirely ridiculous to ask Reading Royals forward Matthew Strome if this kind of scoring pace is sustainable.

The NCAA’s shortened schedules and longer rest intervals gave freshmen an easier transition into college hockey last season, and those wet feet have seen a trio of Mercyhurst sophomores dive right in for the 2021-22 campaign.

The trip from head coach Kirk MacDonald’s office to the rink requires two quick turns. First, a left down a hallway that celebrates the Reading Royals’ players who have reached the NHL; then a right up the tunnel to the bench.
