"We're nearing conference tournament time, which means we're also nearing the time when coaches and players are paying attention to their NPI ranking - and hoping to be part of the NCAA tournament. The good news is it appears the Blackhawks' prospects playing in the college ranks right now are as healthy as they have been in a while."
"Václav Nestrašil returned last week for UMass and Adam Gajan should be back on campus at Minnesota-Duluth this weekend after a couple weeks at the Olympics. Sacha Boisvert and the Terriers need to do some work if they want to get into the NCAA tournament, though."
As February concludes, Blackhawks prospects in college hockey face critical final regular season games before conference tournaments determine NCAA tournament eligibility. The prospect pool is in good health, with Václav Nestrašil returning to UMass after injury and Adam Gajan expected back at Minnesota-Duluth following Olympic participation. Boston University's Sacha Boisvert and the Terriers need strong performances to secure tournament positioning. Multiple Blackhawks prospects compete across ranked programs including Providence, UMass, UConn, Minnesota-Duluth, and Boston College during the final weekend of February.
