2007 Preview


Ryder Betzold scores for Team Minnesota during the 2018 North American Hockey Showcase.

The Favorite: Tommy Chicago 

Players to Watch: Gavin McNeil, Cade Sherman, Carter Ganser

All three highlighted players stood out during this year's North American Hockey Showcase, with McNeil and Sherman scoring regularly for Great Plains and Team Minnesota respectively, and Ganser impressing for Rocky Mountain. Tommy Chicago is the defending champion of the 2007 Division of the  AAA State tournament.

Keep An Eye On: Lake Superior Stars 

Players to Watch: A.J. Francisco, Victor Plante, Ford Skytta 

The Stars are always a team in the mix on Saturday night, and with a group of players like this, they could be playing on Sunday as well. Never bet against a group of northern skaters. 

Don't Forget About: MPH

Players to Watch: Ryder Betzold, Avi Kasargod, Owen Lunneborg (G)

Betzold scored 12 points in The Show for Team Minnesota, while Kasargod played well during last month's Brick Invitational. MPH excels at puck-handling, and Lunneborg should take care of the back end.  


Gavin McNeil will suit up for Tommy Chicago this weekend.
