Posted: Thu Jan 20, 2005 12:12 pm Post subject: UMass Hockey Alumni In the Pros Update |
|
|
With the news about Thomas getting sent down I thought it would be a good time to look and see how UMass's alumni who made the next step into the pros have been doing this 2004-2005 season. Its quite a range of leagues and locations. When you look at the stats you can definately see that UMass's gift to pro hockey hasn't been goal scoring but instead beating up the other team.
I listed the players according to their last season that they played at UMass:
2004 -Thomas Pock -Hartford (AHL) 15 GP, 0 G, 4 A, 4 PTS, 8 PIM
-Charlotte (ECHL) -NO GAMES
2004 -Greg Mauldin -Syracuse (AHL) 30 GP, 4 G, 10 A, 14 PTS, 21 PIM
2004 -Nick Kuiper -Norfolk (AHL) 38 GP, 2 G, 2 A, 4 PTS, 43 PIM
2003 -Tim Turner -Kalamazoo (UHL) 40 GP, 11 G, 8 A, 19 PTS, 50 PIM
2002 -Jimmy Callahan -Kansas City (UHL) 37 GP, 7 G, 9A, 16 PTS, 36 PIM
2002 -Toni Soderholm -HFIK-Helsinki (Finland) 34 GP, 3 G, 13 A, 16 PTS, 22 PIM
2002 -Samuli Jalkanen -Jokerit-Helsinki (Finland) 10 GP, 0 G, 1 A, 8 PIM
2002 -Kelly Sickavish -Wichita (CHL) 29 GP, 0 G, 4 A, 4 PTS, 38 PIM
2001 -Scott Horvath -Atlantic City (ECHL) 32 GP, 4 G, 5 A, 9 PTS, 25 PIM
2001 -Markus Helanen -Jokerit-Helsinki (Finland) 4-4-3, 13GP, 2.14GAA, .934SV%, 2 SO
2000 -Chris Brannen -Topeka (CHL) 37 GP, 2 G, 12 A, 14 PTS, 16 PIM
1999 -Dean Stork -Texas (ECHL) 36 GP, 3 G, 14 A, 17 PTS, 28 PIM
I got my information off of www.hockeydb.com but if you have anything on another player feel free to chime in. Also feel free to update a player as much as you want. |

Ok, since I date Wardy by a little bit in terms of introduction to UMass hockey, I'll do some of the older players. These are the guys who I personally learned the game of hockey from.
Most of these guys appear to no longer be in hockey, or have reached a place where hockeydb.com can no longer reach them.
Warren Norris
2003-04 Graz EC Aust 48GP 22G 32A 54pts 103PIM
Rob Bonneau
2003-04 Jacksonville Barracudas WHA2 7GP 5G 5A 10pts
Brian Regan
2003-04 Missouri River Otters UHL 17GP 3.85gaa 3W 11L 2T 0.893SV%
Tom Perry
2003-04 Miami Manatees WHA2 34GP 8G 34A 42pts 42pts
Tim Lovell

I can see it now, the defensive pairing of Sean Regan and Tom Zabkowicz leading the Steelheads all the way to the Kelly Cup...
Congrats to Regs on the pro contract...wonder how he'll enjoy Idaho... |

| Though, for the record, it isn't called the East Coast Hockey League...it is simply the ECHL, which stands for...well...nothing anymore. |

He was playing in Atlantic City which folded only a year after winning the Kelly Cup. It was too bad that he didn't stick around because his little brother was a real trip in the stands rooting for UMass. |

| I was told secondhand that Brad turned down an offer to return to the Capitals, and I believe he is living in LA with his new wife (who is also a star on Playboy TV, far more noteworthy than any NHL career). I was also told that he is hoping to sign an NHL deal somewhere this year. |

| Peter Trovato is playing for the Adirondack Frostbite (Glens Falls, NY) of the UHL. Anyone in the upstate NY area might keep in mind Dec 4th when the Frostbite will host Tim Turner and the Kalamazoo K-Wings. |

Some other updates.
Brad Norton is playing in Finland this year for the Helsinki Jokerit where he can trade Joe Mallen stories with Samuli Jalkanen. He already has 40 PIM in 5 games.
As mentioned, Tim Turner is still with the K-Wings. His brother appears to be out of hockey.
Solderholm is playing in Switzerland for Bern. I believe Bern is the team that Gilligan now coaches, or once coached, or something.
Blair Manning must hold the record for most teams by a UMass player.

| The update I have on Norty - he went to camp with LA as a free agent, then was among the last cuts. |
