NAHL, NAPHL alumni in abundance at NHL prospect camps

July 7, 2017

The summer of 2017 is yet another opportunity for dozens of NAHL and NAPHL alumni to attend annual development/prospect camps across the NHL. 

 

All the NHL teams have their development/prospect camps during the month of July.  Former NAHL and NAPHL players were once again a significant part of the mix as over 100 alumni of the two leagues were at camps in July.

The NAHL set a new single-season NCAA commitments record with 275 commitments, including over 200 NCAA Division I commitments. The NAHL also saw three players selected in the 2017 NHL Draft.

 

The NAPHL had 56 players have their rights protected by an NAHL for the 2017-18 season. During the past two years, 120 NAPHL players have signed an NAHL tender or been drafted into the NAHL. In addition, two NAPHL alumni were selected in the 2017 NHL Draft
