Nicklas Wade '21 Recruiting Profile

I see myself as a hard worker who can be very easily coached, and can excel with any coaching style. I describe my game as an all around power forward that plays best as a structured positional player rather than a skill generated player. I am open to all college/junior hockey opportunities. I attend Cranbrook Upper School, a highly competitive academic prep school in Michigan.  I decided to attend in ninth grade so I could challenge myself and continue to grow as a person while maintaining a full time AAA hockey schedule.

This past season I had 32 points through 54 games on u16 Honeybaked. This is the first season I had more assists than goals (10g 22a) in my more recent years as a player. I learned this year the importance of good chemistry with my line mates. I was able to create a lot more chances for my teammates this year, which inadvertently creates more chances for me in the future as I keep growing as a player.
