Three other RHD that might be underrated are Axel Andersson, Alec Regula, and Libor Zabransky. Andersson's stats in SuperElite are just stupid for a defenseman, and Zabransky is in a good Kelowna program. Regula plays for London

Regula is paired with Bouchard in London. Not a bad pick up later on!!

Alex Smith on Michigan Tech is flying up and down the ice in this first Frozen Four game. I also don't think he lost a faceoff yet!!.

Seamus Donohue sends a nice two-line pass to Joel L'Esperance who comes in on a semi-breakaway and scores top shelf to put Michigan Tech up 1-0.

And just like that, NYR development camp invite Andrew Oglevie, causes a Michigan Tech turnover and Dylan Malmquist scores on the broken play. 1-1 all tied up.

Hard battling in Michigan Tech zone and Notre Dame comes up with a nice passing play to take a 2-1 lead. Joe Wegwerth, a Brewster, NY native and Florida prospect, gets the goal.

Air Force and St. Cloud State are about halfway through the 1st. Hard and physical game on ESPN U for anyone wanting to watch.

Billy Cristopoulos, goalie for Air Force, just made a highlight real save on Ryan Poehling. Amazing save!!

Edit: Then made an aggressive save on Eyssimont. He looks really good!!

2-1 Notre Dame over Michigan Tech after 2.

0-0 tie between Air Force and St. Cloud State after 1.

Lot of old school hockey going on. Hard hit after hard hit. Kind of a shame that this kind of hockey is rare in today's NHL.

Great deke by Michigan Tech's Jake Lucchini to go to the net taking two Notre Dame defenders with him leaving a wide open rebound for Gavin Gould. 2-2 early in the 3rd.

Jordan Gross rips one from the point on the Notre Dame PP. 3-2 Notre Dame lead.

St. Cloud with another turnover. Shot by Air Force's Jake Levin deflected by the hand/eye wizard Tyler Ledford. 2-0 Air Force.

Jake Jackson goes zone to zone to tie the game with a minute left. 3-3 Michigan Tech/Notre Dame.

Edit: Michigan Tech and Notre Dame going to OT!!

Holy Shit what an OT. Jordan Gross with his 2nd of the game after Michigan Tech had possession for what seemed to be 3-4 minutes. Crazy game!! Notre Dame moves on.

Really liked Alex Smith and Jake Lucchini as Free Agent options out of Michigan Tech for NYR. They looked really good today. Seamus Donohue wasn't bad either!!

St. Cloud gets on the board with under 3 minutes to go. Good break-in by the forwards. Goal by Lizotte....

....And right back Air Force gets another due to a gaf with St. Cloud pulling their keeper.

3-1 with under a minute left.

Edit: And there's the capper. Another empty net goal will put Air Force in the next round!! Big upset here, great all-around game from The Falcons!! 4-1 Final.

I wanted the Rangers to sign Gross last summer. Still want him...

Although he got two goals, I thought he wasn't good defensively. Got caught flat footed a bunch a times, most notably on the last goal Michigan Tech scored. I mean I wouldn't mind the signing, but I'm unsure on his pro career, ATM.
