Historic Weekend for Illinois Hockey -
History was in the making over the weekend of September 19 – 22, 2018. For the first time, Illinois was invited to the prestigious NAHL and NAPHL event in Blaine, Minnesota. Our team showed Illinois high school hockey players belong on the national map. The Illinois Showcase team went undefeated against 3 Minnesota elite U18 Tier I AAA development teams and a high school all-star team from Washington State.
According to the North American Hockey League website about the event, the NAHL Showcase attracts over 9,000 people in overall attendance, including more than 350 professional, college and junior scouts. For scouting purposes, the NAHL Showcase is the premier event of its kind and is a yearly gathering for every NCAA program and NHL team as they get their first look at some of the best and brightest hockey talent North America has to offer. The North American Prospects Hockey League (NAPHL), was also present and played in conjunction with the Showcase. The NAPHL is made up of elite level USA Hockey-sanctioned teams that compete in the 18U and the other age specific categories.
Illinois jumped to the head of the class and had the scouts buzzing about Illinois high school hockey. The team received direct communication from Tier I Junior teams about several players, which is a real measure of success for high school participants looking for opportunities to move up and continue playing at the highest levels.
