THE NEW CCM RBZ features key innovations that will truly classify this stick tick in a category of its own. Better weight distribution produces a faster swing for faster puck speed and the constant stiffness profile all the way through the shaft haft creates a customized kick point for maximum shot loading. The revolutionary SpeedBlade Technologyâ&#x201E;˘ provides a hot blade face which helps to rocket the puck off the blade.

Hockey NIgHt IN BoStoN By Lance LoFaro • HNIB

ockey Night In Boston welcomes you to our 38th annual Summer Tournament being held again this year at the Valley Forum, a beautiful two-rink facility in Haverhill, MA (25 miles north of Boston). Action in the 20-team Summer Showcase begins on Friday, July 27th with a unique jamboree-style format sure to please the scouts in attendance. Twenty teams will each play 6 games against 6 different opponents over a four-day period. College and NHL Scouts will be able to see prospects play two times each day on Saturday and Sunday against different opponents. Four select teams of Massachusetts /RI top players – Greater Boston, South Shore/RI, North Shore, Middlesex/Merrimack _ were chosen in April/May. Players were invited by the HNIB staff based upon their previous winter’s scholastic hockey season. The 29th annual New YorkConnecticut-Mid-Atlantic camp featuring close to 100 players took place from June 15-17. The players competed for spots on two teams in the Northeast Division: Mid Atlantic and Connecticut/NY. HNIB Mid-West Director John Malloy conducted the 23rd annual camp in Ann Arbor, MI (June 22-24) to select two teams for this showcase. The Great Lakes and Midwest teams will feature players from many Midwestern states (Over 125 attended). Over 90 skaters signed up for the 28th annual Northern New England camp in Haverhill, MA from June 8th–10th. The result was two select teams, Northern New England and Northeast, that represent players from Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire. Early in July, 50 players were drafted from the HNIB High School Division tryouts for participation in the major showcase (from a turnout of 125 partcipants), including a Suburban entry. Sixteen teams of sophomores (over 300 players) competed in the gigantic and unique HNIB Sophomore All-Star

38th Annual Showcase Promises To Offer Exciting Hockey Action Tournament from July 15–21. Also, 240 junior high players participated in their own festival as a stepping stone to their initial exposure at HNIB. The final 40 Sophomore All Stars were chosen after their AllStar Games on July 20th. Returning at HNIB this summer are two major teams representing South Florida (Tim Kyrkostas), and the Philadelphia area (Charlie Pens). Welcome back! And, who could forget TeamONE,

under the guidance of former HNIB participant Ray Jacques, back for year three after winning the HNIB Summer Showcase title last winter. Four new major entries this summer are Central/West, put together by Springfield Cathedral (MA) coach Brian Foley, the Mass Attack, recruited by Chris Nagy, who also fielded an entry in the Sophomore Tournament, Frank Golden’s Metro squad, and East Coast, headed by Glenn White.

are others chomping at the bit to play and help us win games. We will still be very fast, tough, and skilled with many players who can and will contribute as a TEAM." Iovanna called his decision to attend UMass "a good fit" and said former Coach Don "Toot" Cahoon and his staff initially showed interest in Iovanna as a freshman at MC. He made an unofficial visit with former MC Coach Chris Serino during his sophomore year and was immediately sold. "I knew upon seeing the campus as well as the hockey facilities that this was the place I wanted to attend. I love the large ice surface and I believe my game will benefit from that size arena. I sincerely wake up every morning wanting to play for UMass-Amherst. I think they love my passion and desire to be a Minuteman," said Iovanna. Iovanna has known coach Serino since his days as head coach at Merrimack College and Iovanna was skating for the '94 Islanders. "I was about five or six years old. We would practice after his team and one day I was real early and he saw me standing with my equipment on and ordered me to come on the ice. I looked forward to that 15 minutes of ice with them every week. He always said 'you're gonna' play for me some day.' When he took the MC job I was probably in the seventh grade and knew then I would be a Lancer. He has always done everything he said he would do. He's a remarkable person, coach and mentor," said Iovanna. Which made the news that Serino had suffered a relapse of throat cancer and would be unable to coach last season all the more difficult to accept. "Coach Serino's illness took us all by surprise and was devastating news. Although he wasn't there every day he was still a huge part of our success and his presence was felt. We all have the highest respect for him; we prayed as a team and continued to work hard in his absence. The entire coaching staff was remarkable in continuing his hockey philosophies and systems," Iovanna said. An HNIB veteran, Iovanna makes his second appearance on the Greater Boston club. He is familiar with a number of the players on this year's team either personally or by reputation and expects GB to compete hard, have fun and continue its recent run of success at this tournament. Committed to constantly improving every facet of his game, Iovanna displays quick feet, soft hands, a quick release and advanced hockey IQ. He skates with Paul Vincent and has worked with Athletic Evolution trainer Rick Bianco for five years.

But, at the end of the day, the Monarchs are a great team with a rich tradition and they play in the best Junior league in the Eastern corridor. I was fortunate enough to crack the lineup and decided to play for Coach Frew,” MacGillivray explained. While he looks forward to new challenges, the MC experience will stick with MacGillivray for a lifetime, especially the Lancers’ repeat performance this past winter.

Colin McGillivray • Greater Boston

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ltimately, the opportunity to play a beefier schedule for the reigning champions of what is regarded as the premier Junior league in the Eastern United States outweighed the chance to compete for a third consecutive Massachusetts Division 1A State Championship. While he remains at Malden Catholic to complete his studies and graduate with his class, defenseman Colin MacGillivray of Peabody (MA) will lace ‘em up for the Eastern Junior Hockey League champion Jr. Monarchs this winter under new coach Ryan Frew.

“MC has been a blast – great teammates, coaching and a great student body to support you,” MacGillivray said. “The Super Eight tournament is tough and winning back-toback was very special. I’ll never forget it, especially with all the emotion surrounding the team and what was really at stake, winning it for Coach Serino. “The moment we found out it was devastating, hard to believe – no one wanted to believe he wasn’t going to coach. Our coaches did an amazing job keeping us focused and the captains, Brendan (Collier) and Ryan (Fitzgerald) always reminded us why we were playing – it was pretty remarkable and special,” he added. “Coach Serino is a great hockey coach. Coach taught me to be a better person, a better student and a better hockey player. He has shown me what real courage is and what it means not to give up.” (Continued On Page 47)

South/RI’s Shane Kavanagh • Cushing

Shane Kavanagh A True Power Forward

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ushing Academy's Shane Kavanagh is a bit of a throwback, a power forward equally capable of winning battles on the wall and scoring goals from the so-called dirty areas. Kavanagh headed to Cushing as a repeat sophomore last year after racking up impressive numbers at Bishop Hendricken in Rhode Island. "Academically and athletically it was quite a jump from my old school. After talking to my par-

ents and (Cushing) Coach (Rob) Gagnon we thought it would be in my best interest to attend Cushing. The schoolwork was more challenging and the hockey was much better. I look forward to this year," said Kavanagh, who accumulated 15 goals and 32 points in his debut campaign as a sophomore with the Penguins, who finished 19-103 and advanced to the quarterfinal round of the elite Stuart/Corkery Tournament.

New Challenges Lie Ahead For MacGillivray (Continued From Page 43)

MacGillivray returns to the Greater Boston squad this summer, one of the core veterans on a club that has enjoyed immense success each of the past two years. Rangy and physical, he’s a commanding presence in all three zones. Improving his puck skills and decision-making are at the top of his priority list.

Shane Kavanagh Leads South/RI Into Battle (Continued From Page 45)

Kavanagh said his overall game improved greatly under the watchful eyes of the Cushing staff. He scored at least a single point in six of Cushing's final seven games heading into the playoffs and skated on the Penguins' lethal top line with team scoring leader Garrett Hehir and UNH-bound Shane Eiserman. "My game has improved tremendously after a year with coach Gagnon and his staff -- they are constantly pushing you to get better both on and off the ice," he said. Kavanagh's favorite NHL player is Anze Kopitar "because I love the way he plays the game and how can maneuver his way out of every little position." At 5-11, 185 pounds, Kavanagh is a self-described "hard-working power forward," who cites the need to improve his speed as the area he needs to work on most. To that end, he has faithfully adhered to a personalized workout plan given by coach Gagnon to every Cushing player based on the program's own testing results. Kavanagh returns to the South Shore/Rhode Island squad coached by Gagnon this summer and is hopeful of improving on last year's 4-3-0 round-robin record. "I feel as though this will be a solid team with good goalies. I hope to impress some Division 1 college coaches as well as make some friends," he said.Kavanagh is hopeful of advancing directly to the college ranks upon graduation from Cushing but will take an extra year of Juniors if needed. He plans to study Sports Medicine or Nutrition. "I feel I will be ready to go right to college after my next two years at Cushing. In memory of my Pa I would love to play college hockey at BC, Providence College, BU or Northeastern," he said.

“I’ve been working out and making getting to the gym a priority. I’m skating skills sessions to get ready for HNIB,” he said. “I think we will be very competitive. We have a good team, but I’m sure all the teams are good (and) I’m expecting close games.” He knows the transition to the EJHL will be demanding. “The Catholic Conference is a very good league; the EJHL is going to be a bump up (with) more games, more travel, playing with and against kids that have college commitments and kids trying to get their deal done. I’m putting a lot of focus on making sure I’m in the best shape possible to be able to perform at a high level all season. No doubt it’s going to be a tougher schedule,” he said. Depending on his development, MacGillivray is prepared for a twoyear hitch in the EJHL, if necessary, and is hopeful of catching the eye of a Hockey East school. “Hockey East is a great league to play in. I had a really nice visit at UConn but haven’t gone on many visits. It’s important to go to a school where it’s a good fit and where you will play,” he said.

TeamONE’s Steve Thulin Looks For Big Summer

By Dom Nicastro • HNIB

tephen Thulin is serious about hockey and his progression as a goaltender. He is so serious, in fact, last year he attended the American Hockey Institute, the Waterville Valley, N.H., program where players live in a campus-environment and practice hockey four hours a day along with gaining academic skills. “I really enjoyed my season in Waterville Valley, N.H.,” Thulin said. “It was a great experience having the ability to live on my own with some teammates. I think it really helped me mature and become more independent. The four hours of practice a day helped me develop into a better hockey player and the school aspect was great. I think my reading and writing skills improved.” Last summer, Thulin put on his own clinic of hockey in the Hockey Night in Boston Major Showcase. The North Reading, Mass., native won the Top Goaltender award for his stellar play in between the pipes. His efforts helped lead TeamONE New England to the showcase championship. “I am proud to have received the award, but for me, team awards are the most important,” said Thulin, 19. “Last summer, my team won HNIB. It was an experience I will always remember. My coaches Ray Jacques and Ray Jacques Sr. have invited me to play on their summer team for many years. They are two great coaches.” (Continued On Page xx) Ace Netminder Steve Thulin

O N T HE C OVER T HIS SUMMER

TeamONE Has Solid Backstopper In Thulin (Continued From Page 48)

Though he’ll only have to make a short commute from North Reading to play in HNIB this summer, Thulin has traveled far and wide for his hockey career, most notably a trip to Quebec City recently. “I had strep throat and had to drive up with my father when I was feeling well enough,” Thulin said. “There was no way I was going to miss playing in a tournament, especially our last tournament of the season. It was pretty special playing in a rink that was like an old time Canadian barn.” Prior to his campaign with the New England Wolves, the team that represents the American Hockey Institute, Thulin played a year for the Salem Ice Dogs of the Empire League. He played about a 50-game schedule against teams

from around New England and New York and called it a “great experience.” His game has improved in skating and becoming what he calls “headstrong.” “I had to manage my time in order to keep up with my academics,” he added about his time with the Ice Dogs. “I have no doubt that the experience will help when I play college hockey. I am continuing to work on playing the puck more often. I am planning on spending extra time on that part of my game this summer.” Thulin has been spending most of his summer days at the rink. He adds in yoga on Tuesdays and Thursday and watches his sister’s hockey games as well. She is also a goalie. And of course, he’ll be participating in his third HNIB Showcase. “I look forward to the tournament and

will really miss playing next summer,” Thulin said. He credited HNIB coaches Ray Jacques and Ray Jacques Sr. as mentors, along with Brian Daccord and John Carratu from Stop It Goaltending. As for the future, Thulin is lining up another year of junior hockey before he decides on college. He wants to take college courses in the meantime to “keep my brain working.” “Work as hard as you possibly can and be confident in your abilities,” Thulin said when asked what advice he gives younger hockey players. “If a coach says that he doesn’t think you’re good enough, train twice as hard and prove him wrong. Success is the best revenge.”

TeamONE’s Torrico, Zuccaro Have Good Chemistry On Ice Chris Zuccaro (left) and Garrett Torrico make up TeamONE’s dynamic offensive duo.

By Dom Nicastro • HNIB

arrett Torrico and Chris Zuccaro know what it takes to be successful on a competitive level of hockey like Hockey Night in Boston (HNIB). They were on last year’s winning team in the Boys Major Showcase. Torrico assisted on the winning overtime goal for TeamONE New England in the 4-3 final over Northern New England. And this summer, they’re back and hoping for more success. “I think one of the reasons why the team worked so well was because of great coaching,” said Torrico, 18, a Mount Washington, Mass., native who played for the Empire Junior Hockey League Springfield Pics this past winter. Page 50

“Skill in hockey can only take a person so far. The fact that we had skill and had good coaching really helped us out in the end.” Zuccaro, an 18-year-old out of Hudson, N.H., also played in the Empire Junior Hockey League – for the championship-winning New Hampshire Monarchs. He is hoping to carry over the success from HNIB last year and this past winter’s Monarchs’ crew, for which he scored 27 goals and had 37 assists in 44 games. “I hope to have a strong tournament kicking off a great hockey season and opening the doors to perspective college hockey programs,” Zuccaro said. “I had a great senior year. I played for the Empire Monarchs where we won the

National Championship. I had a blast playing on that team and made some friends that will last a life time. I created memories that will last forever.” A forward who shoots right-handed, Torrico is also ready to create more memories at HNIB this summer. The two-time Empire League all-star said he is coming off a senior year of hockey in which he introduced himself to the Junior A level of hockey and “got comfortable.” Although his team did not do as well as it would have liked come the playoffs, he said it was a good season for himself personally, particularly in his passing game. He had 14 goals and 29 assists in 24 games. (Continued On Page 51)

Torrico, Zuccaro Offensive Leaders For TeamONE (Continued From Page 50)

“The part about my game that I like right now would be my passing,” Torrico said. “I am managing to execute good passes all over the ice. I would like to see improvement in my speed and strength for the upcoming year.” Torrico spends six days a week working out after his summer job ends. He’s hoping to add more strength to his game and is paying close attention to that in his offseason workouts. “I try and skate every once in a while to keep my feet under me, but the main objective right now is to get stronger,” he said. Throughout his hockey career, Torrico said he’s been influenced by his coaches and his father, Jim. Each of them has “given me a lot of advice about the game and about life. They have also taught me a good work ethic,” he added. Next fall, Torrico will be playing Junior A hockey again. He wants to get some of his core classes out of the way so that when he does arrive at a four-year college, he can take fewer classes and focus on hockey. He’s pumped about focusing on hockey this summer in the month-long HNIB showcase. “My experience with HNIB has been great so far,” Torrico said. “ The amount of games is great throughout the week. You get plenty of ice time to prove yourself. The competition is always good too.” Zuccaro this summer will be trying to make it three in a row as far as championships – dating back to last summer’s HNIB title. He played a major role on his past two championship teams and is anxious to get on the ice this summer for HNIB. His favorite part of the game? “I love playing on the penalty kill,” Zuccaro said. “There is nothing better than blocking a shot and hearing the whole bench cheer for you. I like my defensive side of my game. Speed is such a big part of hockey now, and I really want to continue to work on that aspect of my game.” Zuccaro is spending his summer working about 35 hours a week at Nashua Country Club and getting on the ice as much as he can. He plays golf in his free time. Along the way, Zuccaro said he’s been supported by several key mentors, including:

“I think one of the reasons why the team worked so well was because of great coaching. Skill in hockey can only take a person so far. The fact that we had skill and had good coaching really helped us out in the end.”

- Garrett Torrico on TeamONE’s HNIB title last summer Coach Ray Jacques (Lowell Riverhawks Metro League/Team One Hockey): “He has always been there for me when I have needed him. I have known him for six years, and I don’t know where I would be without him. He would do anything for any of his players. He really helped bring my game to the next level playing in some really great tournaments against tough competition.” Coach (Grampy) Ray Jacques Senior (Riverhawks/TeamOne Hockey): “He has been like an extended grandfather to me growing up. Always picked me up when I was hard on myself offering encouragement.” Coach Ryan Frew (Empire/EJHL Monarchs): “He really helped me with my development in all three zones and really emphasized defensive zone play. I really love and excel at penalty killing and blocking shots.” Coach Ryan Miller (Kimball Union Academy): “I learned nothing is given to you and you have to work hard to get where you want to go. All though my part was limited being a true freshman and sophomore I was part of a couple of great teams capturing a couple of titles. I had a great experience living away from home for two years and meeting some great friends.” Zuccaro plans to become a police officer and more immediately wants to play hockey with Coach Bill Flanagan of the AJHL Cyclones. “My hope is that with his help and guidance, I will be able to have the opportunity to play hockey for a Division 1 or 3 college in the not-too-distant future,” he said. “I want to have a breakout season this year as it is an important year for me and I am hoping for the best.”

Sikalis Looks Forward To Cushing

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ecent Acton-Boxboro (MA) High School graduate Peter Sikalis was one of a handful of New England players who benefited from the opportunity to flesh out the rosters of National squads in last year's Summer Showcase, earning a bit of perspective of how the game is played in other regions of the country. This summer Sikalis, a Cushing-bound PG

defenseman, will skate for the South Shore/Rhode Island entry under the guidance of Cushing coach Rob Gagnon. Sikalis made the most of his chance last summer, earning a tournament Top Defenseman award while skating for One Hockey Black. He followed that up with an All-League season as AB's captain last winter, netting eight goals and 19 points (Continued On Page 54)

Jeremy Young • Middlesex/Merrimack Cape Ann League MVP Goes To Cyclones

Jeremy Young Set For Big Summer Cape Ann MVP Solid On Blue Line

By Dom Nicastro • HNIB

eremy Young really didn’t have to prove himself as a hockey player his senior year last winter at Lynnfield High School in Lynnfield, Mass. He had already done that. But this was his senior year, and a delegation of captain meant he had to do more than just break up rushes inside his blue line and dish out a few assists. “Personally I had a chance to develop as one of the leaders of the team by motivating fellow teammates. I encouraged them to give it our all during our games. We had great team camaraderie on the ice and off. We all were friends who supported each other. We were not just a group of players out for ourselves, he said.” Lynnfield earned the top seed in the Division 2 North postseason tourney and ended up advancing to the quarterfinals. They fell to Wilmington, 2-1, but finished with a stellar mark of 18-4-1 overall and 10-3-1 in the Cape Ann League. Young, a right shot defenseman, won the Cape Ann League’s Most Valuable Player award. He scored six goals and had 11 assists. “I feel my skill level has improved by always being in tough situations playing against high skilled teams,” Young said. “I logged a lot of minutes on the ice during these challenging games that added to my experience and helped me become a better player. My decision-making is one thing that stands out on the play setup on the power play and in the defensive zone. I want to improve my game by working on my speed when carrying the puck; I need to work on moving the puck quicker.” This summer, Young is spending his time playing in several tourneys, including the HNIB Major Showcase for the Middlesex/Merrimack team. He’ll be playing junior hockey this coming season with the Northern Cyclones of the AJHL, coached by Billy Flanagan, who happens to be the Middlesex/Merrimack coach. To get ready, he’s been strength-training at a gym, running and shooting pucks in his backyard. He also finds downtime to hang out with friends and works part-time in a Boston restaurant.

“I feel my skill level has improved by always being in tough situations playing against highly-skilled teams. I logged a lot of minutes on the ice during these challenging games that added to my experience and helped me become a better player.” - Middlesex/Merrimack’s Jeremy Young As for HNIB, Young said he’s played in the past in the summer tourney and “always thought the competition was great.” “I looked forward to getting the opportunity to play against teams that traveled from all over the country to participate in HNIB,” Young said. “This year I hope to get looks from college scouts that might attend the HNIB games.” Young points to his father for pushing him to become a better and more confident player. “My family has always supported me through my hockey career and made me the person I am today,” he said. In addition, his high school coach, Vin Mirasolo, “always had confidence in me which help me be a better and confident player.” “Playing a split season last year with the Northern Cyclones also helped a great deal to improve my game,” Young added. “I got a lot of feedback from the Cyclone coaches and worked hard to improve my game by following their suggestions.” This coming school year, Young will be taking classes at North Shore Community College while focusing on playing junior hockey with the Northern Cyclones. His goal is to eventually attend a four-year college to earn a BA degree in criminal justice and play hockey at the college level. “I think I will gain more hockey experience and skill playing juniors first while attending a junior college,” Young said.

from the back line as the Colonials reached the Massachusetts Division One North Sectional semifinals. He moves on to Cushing to hone his skills in the classroom and on the ice. "I felt the PG year would help me better prepare myself for college and it's a great way to bring up your GPA. I also felt the PG year would help me improve athletically and help me get more exposure to colleges," said Sikalis, an imposing 6-4, 200pound presence at the blue line.

“I felt the PG year would help me better prepare myself for college and it’s a great way to bring up your GPA. I also felt the PG year would help me improve athletically and help me get more exposure to colleges.” - South Shore/RI’s Peter Sikalis In Cushing, he joins a program that has been reinvigorated by Gagnon and regained its stature among the pre-eminent prep squads in New England. The Penguins finished 18-10-3 this past winter, falling in the quarterfinal round of the elite Stuart/Corkery Tournament. Sikalis is looking forward to the challenge. "I've had experience with Junior teams and I was able to make the transition to that level of play just fine. But the prep level is definitely going to be a change of pace from public school," Sikalis said. "My expectations are high. I've talked with coach Gagnon a bunch of times and he seems like an excellent hockey coach; I'm really looking forward to playing for him." Size is Sikalis's most obvious attribute, accompanied by a hard, accurate shot. Since he's always been one of the biggest players on the ice at every level, one might think Sikalis's favorite player would be Zdeno Chara for obvious reasons. However he favors the Bruins' Selke Award winner Patrice Bergeron.

"He is always working his hardest no matter what the circumstance is and there isn't a night where he doesn't leave everything he has on the ice," Sikalis pointed out. That work ethic has been part and parcel of Sikalis's summer regimen. "I've been going to the gym a lot and I've been skating every chance I can get. I feel like I need to work on my footwork and speed. These are two qualities of a defenseman teams are looking for now. I think if I could get a little faster then I'd be ready for the next level of hockey. "I'm going to try and work on my speed and my ability to move the puck [at the Showcase]. I hope to gain some exposure to colleges after this tournament," Sikalis said, adding "I think we have a pretty good team and will do well." He is keeping his options open beyond Cushing. If that includes an additional year of Junior hockey in order to play in college, then so be it. "It doesn't matter to me where I play -- as long as I'm playing hockey, I'd be happy anywhere," Sikalis concluded.

Trevor Cimino (Middlesex/Merrimack) • Northern Cyclones

Cimino A Huge Part Of Burlington’s Mass. Division I State Title Run

By Dom Nicastro • HNIB

he Burlington High School boys hockey team in Massachusetts was going for a spot in the Super 8 tourney, the best of the best for high school hockey in the state. Burlington lost the chance, however, when it fell to Central Catholic, 6-4, in a play-in game. So what did it do? It won the Division 1 state championship, the next-best-thing to winning the Super 8. It was the school’s first title. And Trevor Cimino was a huge part of it. The senior assistant captain forward led the team in scoring with 45 points (20 goals and 25 assists), and he helped lead his team to a 6-2 win over Milton in the Division 1 state title game at

the Boston Garden. “Our team, like most teams, had some rough patches along the way,” said Cimino, 18. “We used sources from outside hockey to overcome the struggles we had. A few people close to the team came to speak to us about their fight against cancer, a disease that had turned their whole life around. It made us as a team think about what was really important in life and to fight hard in every practice and game. From that point on we knew we had the motivation to go very far. We ‘threw away the stat book’ and started playing for each other, not caring who got the points or the glory.” (Continued On Page 56)

Cimino Takes His Game To Northern Cyclones (Continued From Page 55)

Cimino said playing on that team helped him as a hockey player, giving him “experience to play in do-or-die games, where you were fighting against nerves just as much as the other team.” “I became a better leader, and my skills improved tremendously,” Cimino added. He’s hoping those skills carry over into his first Hockey Night in Boston (HNIB) showcase this summer. He is playing for the Middlesex/Merrimack team in the summer showcase. “I have yet to experience Hockey Night in Boston, but a couple of my teammates have participated in it and I

have only heard good things,” Cimino said. “I know that it is a tournament where a great amount of elite hockey players go to showcase their skills. I hope to gain exposure to college coaches since playing for a strong college program is my ultimate goal. Choosing the route of staying in public high school all four years is something I will never regret, but I know I have to work that much harder to get noticed by colleges. I am hoping HNIB can give me the opportunity to showcase my talents to these schools, and find the right fit for me.” Cimino said his game as of now is based on speed. He wants to improve his

defensive play. “I feel like a player is most effective when they are the first one to the puck,” Cimino said. “Every time I'm on the ice I push myself to always be moving as fast as I can go. Speed as well as hands are a deadly combination, so I'd say those are the two areas of my game I like. … Colleges look for the complete hockey player, and I feel that if I can take my defensive game to the next level, I will be the complete player I am striving to be.” Cimino is busy these days in the summer off the ice. He works as a lifeguard at three different pools and works out at the gym every day. “I am trying to get stronger and better myself in some way every day,” Cimino said. “Skipping a day of working out is not an option for me, but I guess that is a good habit to get into. I also try to keep my skills sharp by hitting the ice three to four times a week. Besides all that I'm with my friends a lot, playing street hockey or basketball.” Next season, Cimino will play junior hockey for the AJHL’s Northern Cyclones. He will be taking a couple classes at the local community college, “but most of my focus will be on bettering myself as a hockey player.” “I felt that the Cyclones and Coach Bill Flanagan were a perfect fit for me,” he added. “He is going to push me to the level I need to be at to succeed at the college level, and I couldn't be more excited to start the season.”

Greater Boston’s Lynch Gifted On Ice And In The Classroom By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ll things considered, Charlestown's Conal Lynch couldn't have made a "wrong" choice. After leading Boston Latin to a 15-3-4 overall record and Massachusetts Division Two North Sectional semifinal berth while racking up 35 goals and 53 points, Lynch was admitted to both Phillips Andover and Phillips Exeter academies -- two of the nation's elite prep schools. He eventually settled on Andover. "When I first learned I was admitted to both I thought 'This is great!' Just as quickly I realized I had a major decision to make -- two of the best preps there are! I had met some of the Andover players and spoken several times with Coach Boylan and was extremely comfortable with the whole scene at Andover," said

Lynch, who piled up 67 goals and 106 points in his final two seasons at Boston Latin and has earned his place in the long line of high-end hockey players hailing from Charlestown that extends back generations. Lynch returns to the Greater Boston team this season, part of a small nucleus of veterans looking to extend the squad's recent run of dominance. GB won the 2010 title and has been undefeated in round-robin play for the past two summers. While many mainstays from those clubs have moved on, Lynch welcomes the challenge and fun of blending old faces with new into a cohesive unit in a short period of time. Lynch is a big fan of how L.A. Kings' forward Anze Kopitar plays the game.

In ActIon thIs summer

Former Boston Latin star Conal Lynch heads to Phillips Andover for a PG year.

"As good as he has been for a few years, he was under the radar until the Kings won the Cup. I've always loved watching him -- he's fast and quick for a big guy and he plays hurt," said Lynch. As for his own game, Lynch cites speed, quickness, vision and his competitive nature as strong suits. He said he needs to become more consistent at emerging from the corners with puck control along with winning more face-offs and improving his defensive play. Upon returning from an early summer vacation in Ireland with his grandfather, Lynch embarked on a workout schedule at Andover with some of his future teammates and planned to play in the EJHL Showcase and attend a few college camps. HNIB's Summer Showcase should provide him with a bit of a measuring stick regarding his progress. "Personally, I want to compete against the high level players in the HNIB tournament. The number of games against kids from all over will be a good way to find out where I stand. I plan to go to college after my PG year at Andover, but …" he said, an unspoken acknowledgement of the possibility of an added year of seasoning in the Junior ranks. Lynch will likely major in economics and/or engineering in college. His preference is to play at at Ivy League or NESCAC school in order to get the best of both worlds in hockey and academics. Wherever Lynch attends college, he will carry the Latin Experience with him. "Many of my classmates, teammates and coaches at Latin will be life-long friends. The support of the school (including faculty and alumni) is something I'll remember. I had some of the best teachers, teammates and coaches one could ever hope for," he said.

Langevin Has Proven Scoring Ability

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

he long-range desire to further his hockey career at a topnotch academic institution notwithstanding, Anthony Langevin also has a very specific goal for choosing to do his PG year at Canterbury following a stellar career at Albany Academy. "My goal for the upcoming season is to make it to the NEPSIHA Elite 8 playoffs. At Albany Academy we only made it to the Earl/Martin semifinals the last two seasons," said Langevin, who is thrilled to be playing for coach Paddy McCarthy. "I first met coach McCarthy at the Northford Festival following my freshman season. He is a great coach to play for and I can't wait. In addition to a great coaching staff, coach McCarthy also has a strong nucleus of returning players." Langevin brings proven scoring ability to that mix. He was a

Top 10 Showcase scorer with seven goals and 14 points for the Connecticut/New York entry last summer and followed up with a productive campaign at Albany last winter. He returns this summer ready to contribute to coach Jim Salfi's squad in every situation. "My focus now is to become a more complete player so I can succeed at the next level. I proved last year (at the Showcase) that I can be a playmaker and a scorer at the next level. It was a great experience and a confidence-builder. I have become an overall contributor -- even up, power play, and a man down," said Langevin, a power forward who models his game after Ryan Getzlaf. "It seems like he is never outmatched, whoever he plays. Whenever he steps on the ice, he is going to succeed and most of the time he does. I admire his confidence." (Continued On Page 60)

NNE’s Royer Decides To Stay Home So. Burlington Star Eyes Vermont’s Top Prize

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ommy Royer had a decision to make and, in the end, opted to complete some unfinished business. Royer will return for his senior season at South Burlington (VT) High School for one final run at the State title after SB bowed in the championship game this past March. "I definitely thought about leaving for my senior season to play for a local AAA prep team but decided I wasn't quite ready to leave my school and especially all of my teammates. Plus, we didn't win the State Championship this year, so that was also a driving force," said Royer, an HNIB Summer Showcase veteran back for his second summer as a member of the Northern New England squad. NNE fell in OT in last summer's Showase championship. Blessed with top-end speed, it's not uncommon for Royer to take defensemen wide, leave them in his wake and cut hard to the net. He finished with 23 goals and 39 points this past winter and tries to emulate the Philadelphia Flyers' Claude Giroux as closely as possible "He's an incredible playmaker and makes all the players around him better. He also has a scoring touch that's among the best in the league," said Royer. "I think my two best attributes are my speed and vision. I make a lot of passes that other players wouldn't see or wouldn't make. I have a very team-oriented style of play and using the players I have around me simplifies the game and makes it easier to play." Royer has spent the summer playing a number of U20 Junior events a well as working closely with a strength coach. "I definitely need to work on my stick handling and my fin-

ishing ability. I should score on more of the opportunities I get and if I improve my stick handling, I'll have more confidence when I'm down on defensemen. I want to work on my scoring touch throughout this year's Showcase and not have as many plays where I say to myself after, 'Wow, I should have finished that chance'," he said. Northern New England finished in a three-way tie in the uber-competitive Northeast Division last summer, claiming the top spot via tie-breaker before falling in the title game. NNE is looking to claim its first Showcase title since 2005 and third overall. "Looking at the roster I see a lot of new faces but also some key contributors from last year. I think Northern New England will fare well yet again and we will definitely be championship contenders," Royer assessed. As slick in the classroom as he is on the ice, Royer is likely to travel the Junior route upon completion of his high school career and focus solely on hockey to enhance his chances of playing in college. "I'm still weighing Junior options. After talking to coaches more and hearing their input, I'll come to a decision where I want to play later in the year. I think that one additional year after high school will prepare me for the college game. I'm looking to play D3 at this point," said Royer, who will likely pursue either Engineering or a Math-related field of study in college. "My options are still open, but I'd like to stay in New England. I've visited and talked to the coaches as a couple of NESCAC schools. I want to go to a school with a high standard academically because I have a high standard for myself."

Langevin A Key For Connecticut/NY (Continued From Page 59)

Langevin has attended a number of Prospect Development camps to gain exposure among college coaches. He's worked on his overall game by attending both the Laura Stamm Elite Power Skating sessions and Turcotte Elite Stick Handling clinics. "My strengths include my stick skills, hockey acumen, intensity and focus. I can now be successful in any situation. I continue to work hard on my skating -there has been significant improvement in the last few years," he said. This is Langevin's third Showcase Page 60

appearance and he likes the potential of this year's Connecticut/New York club. He enjoys playing for Coach Salfi -- "He does a great job" -- and is looking forward to reuniting with former Albany linemates Nick DeVito. The duo figures to bear watching throughout the week. Langevin is also eager to build on relationships he established with both college and Junior A coaches while here last summer. A standout student with a 3.75 GPA and interests in Politics, French, Latin and Business, Langevin desires to play hockey at a highly-regarded academic

institution. In order to make his a goal a reality, he is amenable to playing a year of Junior A hockey following a year at Canterbury. He has had discussions with a number of NESCAC and Division One schools in New England and will attend the Brown University prospect camp in August. "I want to play for a college team that is highly regarded academically. If I choose a NESCAC school, I will probably to directly to college. If I go the Division One route, I'm sure I will play a year of Junior A," Langevin concluded.

Healy Will Be A Going Concern In ActIon thIs summer

By Dom Nicastro • HNIB

laise Healy’s parents, Chris and Lucy, never skated in their lives, as Healy puts

it.

Tilton’s Blaise Healy Powers North Shore

“My dad can’t skate, and my mom says she can skate, but I’ve never seen it,” said Healy, an 18-year-old out of Melrose, Mass. So how does he explain all five Healy siblings – three boys and two girls – becoming hockey players? “I really don’t know how it started,” Healy said with a laugh. The fact is, it started. And for Healy, it’s going to continue to go for the foreseeable future. Healy, a senior to be at the Tilton School in New Hampshire next fall, is a member of the North Shore team in the HNIB showcase. He is coming off a great season at the prep school, scoring more than 35 points. For Healy, Tilton was a big move. And a good one for him, he said. It was his first time away from home, and his first time away from the public-school comforts of his hometown in Melrose. He played for the high school team there for three years before moving on to Tilton to repeat his junior year. “Being away from home at school, I could say I was more focused,” Healy said. “You go to class, to the rink and to the gym, and that’s it. There’s no going out going out friends on weeknights. You can hang out with them, but it’s in your dorm. It gets you ready for college.” And college is exactly where Healy sees himself heading this time next year. He most likely will end up at a college after his senior year at Tilton and not the junior-hockey route. A big part of his journey to a good school for hockey is getting exposure in a tourney like HNIB. “It’s exposure,” Healy said of the summer showcase. “I’ve never played with these kids before. I’m not expecting everything to be perfect. Hopefully someone will see something they like.”

Mike Kelleher Opts To Stay Put Forward Will Spend Senior Year At Central

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

fter playing a pivotal role in Central Catholic's surprising charge to the semifinal round of the Massachusetts Division 1A Tournament last winter, Mike Kelleher faced a decision -- bypass his senior year in favor of prep school or return and help the Raiders make another run at Bay State hockey's ultimate prize. For Kelleher, it was an easy choice and he decided there was no place like home.

"The plan all along was to finish out all four years at Central. Although the option of prep school opened, I still wanted to finish my senior year with Central. Playing for Coach Jankowski is unreal because of his Division I college hockey experience and the love for the game that he brings to the table. “ - Central Catholic’s Mike Kelleher "The plan all along was to finish out all four years at Central. Although the option of prep school opened, I still wanted to finish my senior year with Central," he said. "Playing for Coach (Mike) Jankowski is unreal because of his Division I college hockey experience and the love for the game that he brings to the table. He's always teaching us new things and helping us improve each day throughout the season. Off the ice he's one of the most humble, nicest persons I know." What sparked Central, which started relatively slowly before rolling to a 15-5-5 finish? "The key to the team's success was great coaching, great goaltending and pure determination. Nobody thought we were going to make it as far as we did and that was the best part of being there," assessed Kelleher, back for his second summer as a member of the Middlesex-Merrimack squad.

An adept passer who sees the ice well, Kelleher also has a knack for scoring key goals, including three alone in the roundrobin portion of the Super 8 Tournament -- one each against St. (Continued On Page 63)

Tilton, Healy, A Solid Fit For Hockey And Academics (ContinuedFrom Page 61)

To get to his highest level of hockey, Healy said he’s looking for improvement in his overall game. He wants to play a full three periods of hockey and never take off a shift. “It’s about playing a full game from the beginning of the game to the end,” Healy said. “It’s about people expecting something out of you and you doing it.” For now, Healy is just continuing to get better through workouts and playing in tournaments. He’s played some competitive hockey for the Boston Junior Whalers AAA Elite Hockey. He’s

also working as a plumber and in construction. He plans to do the same next summer. “I have to have money for college,” Healy said. Ultimately, between HNIB and another year at Tilton, Healy hopes he’ll be ready for hockey at the collegiate level. “When you’re playing [at Tilton], the competition is so much better,” Healy said. “If you don’t get better, you’re left behind. There is no weak link at the prep school level. Everyone can skate the same and play the same. It’s just the little things that make a difference between who’s good and who’s average.”

Mary's, St. John's Prep and Springfield Cathedral. He's been working diligently throughout the off-season to improve other elements of his overall game. "My strengths include seeing the ice well and being a playmaker. I believe I need to work on my first three strides and my defensive zone coverage. I've been training at Mike Boyle's Strength and Conditioning Gym along with frequent skating on weekends and at showcases," said Kelleher, who admires the ability of the Bruins' Tyler Seguin to see and secure open ice from where he can best utilize his quickness, hard shot and deft scoring touch. One of a handful of returning veterans to the Middlesex-Merrimack entry, Kelleher likes its chances in this tournament. From a personal standpoint, he will focus on his passing game and defensive play as he strives to gain exposure and a sense of team accomplishment. Merrimack last won the tournament as a standalone entity in 2007; Middlesex hasn't claimed the crown since 1990 despite knocking on the door numerous times. Kelleher is leaning toward a PG year upon graduating from Central in the hopes of studying Business and Marketing and playing for a Hockey East program such as Merrimack, UMass-Lowell or UMaine. And why not? After all, there really is no place like home.

In ActIon thIs summer

Crafty Cam Owens Tough To Stop

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

ast we saw of Cam Owens in March, he'd struck for a natural hat trick on the season's biggest stage, capping a memorable junior season while lifting Wilmington High School to its first-ever Massachusetts Division Two State championship with a 3-2 victory against Franklin at the TD Garden. The title-clincher broke a 2-all tie midway through the third period. "Winning the state championship was awesome. We knew we had the talent to do what no other team before us had done at Wilmington. It was a huge accomplishment for the team and I feel like we really put Wilmington hockey back on the map," said Owens, back for a second year as a member of the Middlesex/Merrimack squad in the Summer Showcase. After posting solid numbers (14-19-33) in the defense-oriented Middlesex League and helping the Wildcats secure that elusive State title, it would have been easy for Owens to move on to the private school or Junior ranks. It's an option that can wait another year. "I planned to stay at Wilmington all along. I love playing with all my friends that I have been playing with my whole life and in front of all my friends and family and making my town proud," he said. "Playing for Coach (Steve) Scanlon is great -- he works you into the ground in practice and it pays off in the third period of every game. He is a coach who knows how to win." As a smaller player who relies on quickness and guile it makes perfect sense that Owens favorite NHLer is Pavel Datsyuk. "He is a small player with crazy good hands and amazing playmaking abilities. My strengths are my stick handling and my speed -- I need to work on my strength," said Owens, who has spent the summer playing in a number of showcases throughout the region and spends Monday nights working on skills under the direction of Frank Golden, a long-time member of HNIB's coaching staff. His personal goal in the Showcase is to "better my skills and play some good competitive hockey."

Cam Owens • Middlesex/Mer rimack Wilmington H S Offensive L eader

Notches Hat Trick In State D-2 Final Brought together as a single team several years ago, Merrimack and Middlesex have enjoyed considerable Summer Showcase success as stand alone entities, combining for six championships. Owens likes the makeup of this year's team as well as its chances to mount a title run, noting that "all the scouts should attend." Though undecided upon which path he will follow, Owens plans to continue his hockey career in either the Junior ranks or at Prep school following his graduation from Wilmington. He has his sights set on playing at the Division One college level and is open-minded about his eventual choice of school. He hopes to study either Engineering or Business. The immediate focus, though, will be to help Wilmington go back-toback -- something no Division Two program has accomplished since Saugus doubled up in 2003-04. With the Wildcats returning more than a dozen players from this year's title squad, it's a distinct possibility they'll be hoisting the hardware at The Garden again next March. Expect Owens to once again play a leading role.

Mullins Key catalyst For north shore In ActIon thIs summer

By Kevin Doyle • HNIB

he ascension of St. Mary’s to a place of prominence in the Massachusetts Division One hierarchy reached its zenith this past season when the Spartans captured the Catholic Central Large championship and advanced to the round-robin portion of the Division 1A Tournament for the first time. With 33 points last season and 58 over the past two, forward Bobby Mullins of Saugus has been a linchpin of the St. Mary’s offense. Sensing the need to challenge himself at a higher level, Mullins will take his game to Buckingham, Browne & Nichols this season as a repeat junior. “I wanted to see how good I really am and to get an extra year of experience to get better and work on my game,” Mullins explained. “BB&N was the perfect choice for me because not only did it provide prep level hockey but it also has an unbelievable education system. If hockey doesn’t work out, I’ll have the education to fall back on.” Mullins has been preparing for what he anticipates will be “a huge change” in the level of play with a rigorous off-season training regimen that includes daily visits to the gym, twice weekly stick practices and participation in a number of tournaments. “The Mass D1 Catholic leagues are good, but the ISL is just that much better. I will be playing much bigger and better players at a faster pace. This change will be good for me (and) this step will test me and tell me if I am ready to play at the Division One college level. I feel like after I get my feet wet I will be able to adjust to the new league and will do just fine. All I have to do is just play my game,” Mullins said. Reflecting on St. Mary’s success, Mullins said the Spartans fed off a “Band of Brothers” mentality. “The key was how close the team was. Everybody contributed. I also have to give a lot of credit to (former) goalie Bailey MacBurnie, who stood on his head and kept us in most games. I also have to credit our amazing fans. They were devoted to supporting us. I know they got me amped up,” he said. A skilled puck distributor, Mullins had 33 helpers in the past two seasons at St. Mary’s and returns for his second appearance with the North Shore squad this week. “The strongest part of my game is my passing. No matter what situation I always find someone to get the puck to. If somebody is open I will get them the puck. I feel like getting an assist is just as good as getting a goal,” he said. “Of course, you always have to work on every part of your game. You always need to strive to be better than you already are. I need to keep getting stronger so I can win the one-on-one battles.”

Bobby Mullins - North Shore Will Head To BB&N This Fall

Mullins likes the make-up of the North Shore roster, a mix of veterans and newcomers he thinks “should do just fine” over the next six days. “This tournament always has a good pace and great players from all over. I am hoping to use this tournament to get me back in the game flow. I want to make sure I work on my positioning so that I am always in the spots I am supposed to be in, and I want to make sure I play good defensive hockey. I don’t want to create any bad habits that can follow me to BB&N,” he said. Upon graduation from BB&N, Mullins will likely opt for an additional year of seasoning in the Junior ranks in order to insure his readiness to play at the highest level of college hockey possible. “I hope to play Division One college hockey. I do not care if I have to travel across America, my dream is to play Division One. I hope my time at BB&N and the ISL will help me grow closer to achieving this dream,” said Mullins, who is interested in Architecture. “If hockey doesn’t work out, I want to make sure I’ll have a good job doing something I am interested in. Hopefully my time at BB&N will help me find out what I want to do with the rest of my life.” Page 65

Potent Attack Will Be Tough To Stop

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ne of the tournament’s top clubs the last few years, including its champion in 2010, Greater Boston is ready for another serious title run this summer. The team will have a new face behind the dasher, as GB will be guided by John McLean, who steered Malden Catholic to its second straight Mass. Elite 8 crown this past March, filling in for the ailing Chris Serino. Offense should not be a problem with this group, led by a pair

of snipers featured on the cover in Malden Catholic senior Mike Iovanna (59 pts), a UMass-Amherst commit, and slick senior Tommy Evangelista (43 pts), coming off a solid first campaign at Northwood. Conal Lynch (53 pts) is another Greater Boston returner and brings his talents this winter to Phillips Andover for a post-grad season. Junior Steven DeForge is a key cog in the resurgence of BC High hockey.

Club Banking On Big Summer I

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

t has been a few years since the Middlesex/Merrimack entry has made some serious noise in the HNIB Summer Showcase. The hope is that 2012 will be the year. Returning behind the bench will be Bill Flanagan, the coach for the Northern Cyclones, an Atlantic Junior Hockey League entry based in nearby Hudson, NH. There is plenty of firepower up front for Flanagan to utilize.

Senior Mike Kelleher was a main reason why Central Catholic had a banner season and advanced to the semifinals of the Elite 8 tournament. And speaking of post-season success, look no further that Cam Owens, whose hat trick at Boston Garden spearheaded Wilmington High to a state title, and post-grad Trevor Cimino, who led his Burlington club to a Mass. Division I state title and now heads to the Northern Cyclones.

Colors: Silver/White solid season at Arlington Catholic. Two more post-grads who should pay immediate dividends are Westford’s Patrick Houghton, on his way to the Pomfret School, and Burlington’s Steve Mattos, who will play with the New England Stars. Senior Nick Foland, a Hudson, MA resident, was a solid blue liner for Winchendon School in the prep league. Big Cam Webster (6’1” 190) patrols the rear for the New England Stars. Wilmington senior Anthony Castellano and Haverhill junior Richie Davis hope to open some eyes with their solid play. Holding down the fort in the Middlesex/Merrimack net will be Wilmington HS backstopper Drew Foley, senior James McCoy from Timberlane Regional in NH, and senior Tyler Miller, who plans on minding the drapes with the Worcester Wildcats.

he North Shore entry saw some significant turnover to its roster for this summer’s tournament, with only a few holdovers from last year’s club. Looking to guide the newbies to success will be Andy Heinze, the mentor of the EJHL’s Valley Jr. Warriors. Heinze will have more than a few crafty forwards to lean upon for offense. Senior Blaise Healy had a breakthrough season for Tilton School, where he was one of the Rams’s leading scorers with 34

pts. The slick Tommy Bishop (55 pts) led Chelmsford HS to an impressive year this past winter. Bobby Mullins is one of the few returners to the North lineup. He will move on to BB&N School in the fall after a solid campaign at St. Mary’s. Senior Andrew Brandano had a big post-season for St. John’s Prep last winter and hopes to continued the success in 2012/13. Two area HS stars continuing their careers with the New England Wolves are Kris Holmes (25 pts) from Newburyport and Mike Fish (23 pts), who starred at Triton.

Gannon returns with HNIB Major Showcase experience and moves over to the North for this summer. He was a MVC/Dual County All Conference performer last winter. North Andover standout Jack Carroll head to the rigors of prep hockey as he

will attend Cushing this coming season. The High School Division Festival provided Reading senior Robert Savini and St. John’s Prep junior Connor Dolan to the defensive corps. St. John’s Prep junior Ean Mendeszoon will open some eyes with his big 6’5” frame. In goal, both senior Matt DeLuccia (BB&N/Lynnfield) and Dan Curran (Lowell Catholic/Chelmsford) played in last summer’s Major Showcase with other clubs. Joining the trio will be St. John’s Prep junior Anthony Selivitella.

Strong Club Ready To Challenge By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ear in and year out, the South Shore/Rhode Island team is right there fighting for the HNIB title. This year should be no exception, as returning coach Rob Gagnon of Cushing Academy is banking on another banner summer. Gagnon is well familiar with some of his forwards, including junior Shane Kavanagh, who put up an impressive 32 points in his first year with Cushing, establishing himself as a top prep

school forward. Also in the lineup from Cushing are senior Ed Belsky and senior Jon Palotta, who returns to the South/RI squad and can also play on the blue line. Another offensive talent back for another year is David Mitchell, part of a state title winning team at Bishop Hendricken in RI this past year. He will move on to Tabor for a repeat junior season. Paul Filippone, a senior to-be at Hendricken, will get his numbers on the score sheet as well.

Xaverian senior Nico Bortman is a solid as they come and is a returning blueliner for South/RI. Two up-and-coming juniors ready to make some noise on the prep school scene are Cushing junior Connor Brassard and Tabor junior Ryan Barnes. Senior Frank Cambria also played

last summer for South/RI and is a leader in the Coyle-Cassidy lineup during the winter. Hingham resident C.J. Mulieri had a good first season at Tilton School. Junior Mack Bernard is looking to crack the linuep at Cushing this winter. The rock on the blue line for the Portsmouth Abbey School is junior Kevin Jantz. In goal, senior Mike Dion of Cushing is a returner capable of clamping down opposing offenses. Senior Nick Liberto of Westfield HS got a taste of Major Showcase action last summer with Suburban.

Determined Sophs Could Surprise

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

he youngsters that form the Massachusetts/NE Sophomore All Stars will be underdogs, but no team will match their willingness for hard work and determination as they try to surprise their older counterparts. The team will be coached again this summer by veteran Arlington Catholic mentor Dan Shine, and Reading HS head coach Mark Doherty. Up front, there are some guys that can put the puck in the

net. Woburn HS twins Nick and Christian Baldino both played regularly on the Tanners varsity squad as freshmen. Aaron Clancy got his taste of Catholic Conference action with Catholic Memorial. Brandon Ecklund of Gardner, MA was a top scorer on the St. Bernard’s varsity. Michael Snow put up 23 points with Arlington Catholic and heads this winter to prep hockey at Lawrence Academy.

and Jon Powers of St. Mary’s. The defense has some good size, which will be a plus. Berkshire’s Dan Driscoll is a repeat player on the this club and that experience will help. New Hampton School’s Ben Barton comes all the way from Alaska to participate and will help out. The Massachusetts public HS ranks sends two of its up-and-comers in Beverly’s Nick Albano (16 pts) and Revere’s Zachary Ciampa. Big John McLean will make his presence known; he was a member of Malden Catholic’s Elite 8 title club. Joe Scalli of St. Mary’s saw varsity action

as well. Jack Rogers knows coach Shine from the Arlington Catholic program, while Michael Guay is key to the blue line at Lowell Catholic. The goaltending jobs go to Newton North’s Joshua McLennan-Mayanja, Matt McCaughey of Archbishop Williams and Connor Simpson from New Hampshire’s Bow HS.

New Entry Promises To Be Exciting

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

he Central/West team may be a new entry in the HNIB Major Showcase, but they most certainly won’t be your typical expansion team. The squad, put together by Springfield Cathedral coach Brian Foley, should compete right away in the East Division. The forward lines boast some pretty solid talent, with the bulk coming from the prep school ranks. Choate is reprensented by no less that three players, all of whom should be regulars on the score sheet. Senior Mickey

Foley enjoyed a solid first year with the Wild Boars, while senior Luke May is an adept playmaker. Senior Kenny Nelson hails from Montreal and brings his talents to the tournament. Senior Spencer Barbieri, a native of New Haven, CT, will be an added plus. There are also three players from prep power Avon Old Farms. Junior Jackson Tucker (11 pts) is a North Carolina native. Senior Sean Deverin will be crafty, as will sophomore Brendan Ashe, who is repeating a year after playing with coach Foley at Cathedral this past winter.

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

fter HNIB baptisms last summer in both the Sophomore Tournament and Jr. High Festival, the Mass. Attack program will try its hand with the Major Showcase. Chris Nagy, head of the Mass. Attack program, will oversee this club from behind the dasher. Massachusetts Elite 8 participant St. John’s Prep has a trio of forwards on the club in senior Justin Longo (Wakefield), sen-

ior Cam Shaheen (Boxford) and senior Mark Azarian (Salem, NH). Junior Patrick Wrenn won an Elite 8 crown this past season with his Malden Catholic club. Senior Sean Pickens played with Austin Prep this past campaign. Groton-Dunstable also won a state title this past season at the D-3 level and a trio of its stars - senior Adam Kmetz (33 pts), senior Brad Zadrozny (25 pts) and senior C.J. Kenny (32 pts).

Frank Moreschi was a key component of one of the greatest seasons in the history of St. Mary’s hockey and moves on to a post-grad year. Chris Price, also from St. Mary’s, looks to have a bigger role this coming winter. Rockport’s Conor Douglass, a senior, had a solid season (28 pts). Senior Chris Jellison (24 pts) plays for the Middlesex School in the rugged Eberhart Division. He has HNIB experience. On the blue line, senior Brent Murray will be a rock, a mainstay on the St. John’s Prep defensive unit. Junior Matt Pelletier has his sights set on more responsibility at Malden Catholic this coming winter. Senior Cameron Grenham from St. Mary’s Lynn and junior Jon Ferrante from Rockport HS will be key blue liners for coach Nagy. Chris Lewis of Algonquin Regional joins the team after the High School Division. Up-and-coming St. Mary’s junior Andrew Dimaiti and Deerfield Academy’s Sunho Park will have key roles. In goal, juniors Jason Robes from Groton-Dunstable and A.J. Ansaldi from Medford HS will get the task of keeping the puck out of the Mass. Attack net. Page 79

Strong Blue Line Will Be An Asset

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

eteran coach Mike Addesa has always been a defensefirst mentor and the flavor of this year’s Northern New England squad echoes that sentiment. NNE was an overtime goal from winning the HNIB Major Showcase title last summer, and Addesa is back behind the bench to make another run at it. The blue line group boasts no less than four post-grads and the experience will only help.

Cam Hainey joins the highly-successful Walpole Express junior program after starring at St. Domenic Academy in Maine. Dustin Walsh finished up at All-State season at Concord (NH) HS and brings his talents to Bridgton Academy. both are returning NNE defensemen. Post-grad Lonnie Taylor heads to Cushing after playing up at Hebron Academy in Maine. Jarod Segal, fresh off an AllState senior season at Keene (NH) HS, moves on to the Winchendon School.

Team Boasts Wide Array Of Talent

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

epresenting a wide dichotomy of regions, Team Suburban is hoping to be a tough opponent when the puck is dropped at the 38th HNIB Major Showcase. Returning to guide the fortunes of this club will be Gary Bishop, the veteran coach of New Hampshire’s Bishop Guertin. Up front, Bishop will looked to a quartet of forwards coming off big seasons in Mass. HS hockey to lead the way. Tewksbury senior Derek Petti fired home 28 goals en route

to an all MVC-Dual season in 2011/2012. Also excelling in the same league was Methuen senior sniper Matt Bauchman, ho piled up no less than 30 goals. Junior Zack Cote was a big reason for the success of Central Catholic this past season, while the same holds true for senior Michael Brooks at BC High. Some of Central Mass. top stars also will have a big say in the offense. Seniors John Dutney and Jeff Hamelin were key contributors to Hudson High’s run to a Mass D-3 state title.

Champs Ready To Defend Crown

By Gary Demopoulos â&#x20AC;˘ HNIB

eamONE put on quite a show at HNIB last summer, winning the championship game in overtime after rallying from three goals down. With a good number of those players back, TeamONE will be itching for a repeat, under the direction of head coach Ray Jacques. Offensive firepower will come from the dynamic duo of post-grads Garrett Torrico and Chris Zuccaro. Torrico is

the ultimate playmaker who had a bang-up season with the Springfield Pics Empire club last year. Zuccaro, a key member of the National Champion Jr. Monarchs Empire club, is a point producer, pure and simple. Robbie Buehrer will be another offensive force for TeamONE. He helped lead Bishop Hendricken to a RI Division I state title this past season. Senior Connor Spotts is another returning forward and won a New England prep title with Lawrence Academy.

Senior Mike Napolitano and Drew Thibodeau, both of Bishop Fenwick, will contribute to the cause as well. Senior Pat Lynch could see time both at forward and on the blue line. Defensively, cousins Ray Jacques, Jr and Chris Minter both return. They have been playing together for years and provide strong leadership on the back line. Post-grad Tim Perron was also on the TeamONE title team last summer and is solid in his own end, as was post-grad Zach Prout, returning for another season with the Springfield Pics Empire club. Two TeamONE newcomers who should establish them-

selves right away are Aidan Cleary from Belmont Hill and Governor’s Academy’s Nick Nonis. TeamONE will be very strong in goal, Post-grad Steve Thulin, still deciding where he will be playing this winter, was part of the inaugural success last winter at the American Hockey Institute and was a Top Goalie winner at HNIB. Brad Radin is also back. He looks to tend goal this winter for the Salem Ice Dogs.

Solid Team Should Be A

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ith a nice blend of offensive prowess, size on defense and what should be solid goaltending, this year’s Connecticut/NY entry could raise some eye

brows. Taking the job once again of guiding this club will be veteran mentor Jim Salfi, the longtime coach of the Capital District Selects of the EJHL. Salfi is now working with the EJHL’s Connecticut Oilers after selling the franchise in the off-season. At forward, Anthony Langevin, who finished in the tourna-

ment’s Top 10 scorers last summer, returns. He heads to Canterbury for a post-grad year after finishing a solid career at Albany Academy, where former teammate Nick DeVito is preparing for what he hopes is a big senior campaign. Opposing defenses must be wary of junior Joey Fallon, who moves on to Gunnery after a prolific season with the Long Island Royals program. Junior-to-be Tommy DeFelice is already well-versed in prep school hockey, having skated a season at Cushing.

Hard Work Ethic Will Help Club

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

he newly-named East Coast team, slotted in the tournament's South Division, will be one to the showcase's hardest-working clubs as it attempts to make a name for

itself. Enthusiastic play won't be an issue with this outfit, with the affable Glenn White of the Jr. Monarchs directing things behind the bench.

While the bulk of roster comes from the Northeast, the states of Florida, Georgia, Oklahoma and Washington are represented in the forward group. Junior John Keaney (6'3"), from the state of Washington, should be an offensive leader, as he comes from the Notre Dame program in Canada. Senior Ben Orlowski, now a resident of Oklahoma, is back for a second whirl at HNIB and with his winter team, the Philadelphia Revolution.

Senior Colin Donnelly of Massachusetts' Catholic school entry Archbishop Williams will give an honest effort each time out. Sophomore Grant Wellinger, from the Florida Alliance program, excelled in the recent HNIB Sophomore All Star Tournament for North Florida. Junior Harry O’Donoghue, from right here in Haverhill, will play a sound defensive game. Sophomore Paul Antkowiak plays at nearby Salem HS East Coast looks solid in goal. Senior Brian Walter, from Shenendehowa HS in NY, was an All Star last summer when he was between the pipes for Great Lakes. Junior Bryan Holmberg was an HNIB Sophomore All Star and hails from North Carolina. Junior Ian Larson also played in the Major Showcase last winter as a sophomore for the North Florida entry. So this is an experienced trio. Page 89

nother new club in the this year’s HNIB Boys Majorr Showcase is Team Metro.

The squad was put togehter by Frank Golden, the assistant coach of the New Hampshire Junior Monarchs of the EJHL. Two key forwards for Metro project to be junior Brendan McDonough, an HNIB Sophomore All Star last summer, and junior Luke Foley, both from Mass. Division II state champion Wilmington HS.

Reading has a bright future in the Middlesex League and is well represented in the forward group with no less than four players. Seniors Alex Guarnotta and Garrett Phelan are the elder statesmen of the group, while juniors Jake Barbera and Michael Thomson both had solid varsity seasons as juniors. Big Alex Ganter (6’4) will be a going concern up and down the wing. The Lynnfield residents heads to St. Mary’s for the upcoming season. Senior Nick Cambria will be an offensive sparkplug, coming off a productive year at Coyle-Cassidy. Sophomore Sean Verrier should contribute as well.

• Roster was being finalized as magazine went to press On defense, post-grad Ian Kulac will call Tilton School home this fall. He played in the Showcase last summer. Reading senior Matthew McLelland will be a steadying influence. Stoneham HS junior John Gallagher (6’1” 195) brings good size to the blue line. Antonio Manzotti joins the squad after a solid season with Johnston HS in Rhode Island. Junior Brendan Leach, a Sophomore All Star last August, is bound for Austin Prep in his hometown of Reading. Another Reading native, junior Ryan Byrne, does his thing at St. John’s Prep.

Squad Eyes Long Playoff Run W By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ell-represented by players from the Tri-State area, Team Mid-Atlantic will set its sights on a South Division title, and then, hopefully, a strong playoff

run. Be sure that the affable Geoff Marottolo overseeing the operation from a coaching standpoint will have this team ready to go. Two of the top forwards from the Connecticut HS ranks are

heading for PG-years at prep schools and eager to put up some good numbers here. Glastonbury star Drew Mozzer (47 pts) will head to prep power Cushing Academy, while New Canaan’s Jake Granito brings his talents to Millbrook School. Also with a Millbrook address this coming season will be senior Brad Buvinow from Turnersville, NJ. Keep an eye on Oliver Israel, a New York city native headed for Westminster. Connecticut’s Simsbury HS sends a pair its top guns in seniors Ryan Carpenter (34 pts) and Connor Rice.

Northeast Entry Looks T

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ith players from the three states of Northern New England comprising the roster, Team Northeast will be in search of success in the South Division. With Tilton School head coach Patrick Norton behind the bench, be sure that this team will give its most solid effort each time out. Up front, coach Norton should get good mileage out of senior Connor Todd of Kennett (NH) HS, a returning HNIB play-

er, and senior Shawn Moody from Londonderry (NH), who also returns with HNIB experience. Senior Matt Bouchard of Hebron most certainly will be involved offensively, as will Rice Memorial’s (VT) Alex Morse. Both have played defense in previous HNIB action. Senior Ben Perron (Hartland, VT) plays his hockey at Northwood School. while junior Ben Coleman, a resident of Yarmouth, ME, looks to make a bigger offensive contribution this season at Holderness School.

Will Success Continue For Midwest?

By Gary Demopoulos â&#x20AC;˘ HNIB

f Midwest is to continue its success this franchise has enjoyed the past few summers at HNIB, it will do so with a young club. This year's team is dominated by juniors. Berkshire School head coach Dan Driscoll moves over from the Great Lakes entry to coach Team Midwest. He looks to be able to mold this young talent into a cohesive unit. Members of the Midwest forward group hail from six different states, a wide variety of players ready to put some numbers up on the scoreboard.

Post-grad Colton Yackel is one of the elder statesmen of the club and had a fine career at Heritage HS in his native Saginaw, MI. There are just two seniors in the forward contingent: the highly-productive Liam Kilcoyne (77 pts) of the Northwest Chargers program, and Indiana's A.J. Fasick, who toils for the West Michigan Hounds. Junior Mason Schmitt returns for his second HNIB summer. The 6'4" Schmitt had 48 pts last year for his Gilmour Academy team. The other Ohio player in the forward group is junior Chris Bergamesca of Liberty HS.

Team Roster Truly ‘National’

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

ith players from no less than 11 states, including Alaska, Virginia, Kentucky and Florida, there certainly is a wide breadth of talent on the 2012 National Sophomores club. Rob Gagnon, the head coach at Massachusetts prep power Cushing Academy, will be given the task of molding this group into a club that will compete against its older opponents. Sophomore Tournament finalist Midwest is represented by

four of its top guns in the forward lines. Kentucky native Shawn Moulis hails from the Cleveland Warriors program. The Cleveland Jr. Jacks and Aurora, OH send the elusive Zach Ritter. Mario Damasceno had some good scoring statistics from his season with the Pittsburgh Viper Stars, while young Max Brainin brings his budding talents from Buffalo Grove, IL.

Expect This Group To Work Hard

By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

oach Charlie Pens from American Hockey Schools will once again be behind the bench for Team Philadelphia, which is looking to compete for a first place finish in the West Division. Three forwards all return from last summer’s HNIB Showcase. Senior Devin Dworsky plays his winter puck with the Jr. Flyers organization. Post-grad Vincent DiMare will be a key cog in the lineup for the Jr. Aviators, while junior Troy

Feldman, a native of Pottstown, PA, will be an offensive threat. Junior Alek Burgess, one of two Delaware residents on the squad, had a 32-point season with St. Thomas More prep school. Big Philip Young (6’3”) of Cushing is another Team Philadelphia forward capable of denting the twine. Post-grad Matt Silverman has Metro Junior Hockey experience with the New York Saints program. Ariel Grinstein comes all the way from Oak Park, CA and brings his talents to the rink every day.

Southerners Will Be Formidable A By Gary Demopoulos • HNIB

lways in contention, this year’s South Florida entry should be no exception, as the roster once again boasts some talented players. A good number of the players come from the Palm Beach Hawks program, where South Florida coach Tim Kyrkostas leads the program’s Eastern Junior Hockey League club. At forward, there is a distinct Palm Beach Hawks flavor. Seniors Alexander Rudolph (Coral Springs, FL) and Joey Lokken (Coconut Creek, FL) are ready for big summers, as is

rugged junior Kyle Kohlhorst (6’1’ 220). Post-grad John Smith travels far to play for the Hawks, as he calls San Jose, CA his home. Junior sparkplug J.J. Augusta is a younger player to watch with the program. And Jake Simons, who recently excelled in HNIB’s Sophomore Tournament, has plenty of potential as well. A couple of prep school players ready to make some noise are Tilton School senior Hunter Laslo (Pembroke Pines, FL) and Williston junior Matthew Arnold (Miami Lakes, FL).
