Elias Thompson '17 Recruiting Profile

Ever since I started hockey in 6th grade I instantly developed a passion for the game greater then none other. My life ever since then has been hockey everything and each and everyday I strive to get better and ultimately become the best player I can be. From the time I first laced up my skates my goal has always been to play in the NHL and I believe I can since i've already made the jump to junior A after only playing a mere 6 years. This is where college hockey falls in and is what I believe the correct path for me. All the time it gives you to develop and train is unmatched anywhere else, especially compared to the major junior level and at the same time I would be obtaining a degree for after hockey. Really there is no other route to the top for me except through college and I promise anyone who recruits me they won't regret it. I promise to be the hardest working player on the ice in the classroom and lead by example everywhere else in life.
