CollegeHockey247 reported that Shattuck-St. Mary's forward Brad Robbins committed to Bemidji State.
Fargo Force forward Garrett Allen committed to Denver, choosing the Pioneers over some fairly big WCHA schools like Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Blake Hietala, a forward playing out in Saskatchewan ccommitted to Michigan Tech. Hietala is originally from Houghton. There's potential for all sorts of Finnish hiliarity and confusion when Michigan Tech's Blake Hietala meets up with Northern Michigan's Blake Pietila in a couple of years.
Former Benilde defenseman Tom McCarthy committed to Merrimack. I always thought McCarthy was underrated, and thought he might stay in the WCHA, but he's probably better suited for the smaller rinks out east.
Manitoba defenseman Peter Stoykewych committed to Colorado College, while his older brother Adam committed to Michigan Tech.
Two more players from the NTDP U17s committed as well. Defenseman Connor Murphy committed to Miami, while Los Angeles-born forward Adam Reid committed to Northeastern.

Note...
You’re forgetting about the Pietila cousins already on both teams – Aaron (Tech) and Chad (NMU). Now toss in Chad’s brother Blake in a couple years (if he winds up at NMU instead of playing for Windsor), and the confusion will indeed be quite awesome.
What’s your read on Connor Murphy. Heard he had a problem with a recent growth spurt and just hasn’t evened out his weight/muscle. Either way hasn’t dressed much for the Ann Arbor program much this season, 6 games I believe. Any extra insight for Redskins faithful curious about this kid beyond stats?
