USA Hockey has announced that Kitchener Rangers defenceman Doug Blaisdell (Oneida Nation of the Thames) is one of 42 players who will compete in the third annual CCM/USA Hockey All-American Prospects Game set for Sept. 25 at First Niagara Center.
Now entering his second season with the Rangers, Blaisdell won a bronze medal with the U.S. Under-18 Select Team at the 2014 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup.
The game assembles the top U.S. players who are eligible for the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. Twenty-three players appeared on the 2014-15 NHL Central Scouting Futures List, which highlights players that have potential to be selected in the first three rounds of the draft.
