Good to see they both will be continuing hockey with the Rio Grande Killer Bees (Texas) of the NAHL next Season. They both signed a Tender Contract recently.
Both are hard working and very deserving. Congrats..!

Good point for those not in the know. A tender means little in the league. You won't be subject to the draft but better than a third of the kids tendered will not make the final roster. NAHL can be brutal with kids coming in from other leagues once those rosters get trimmed.

Exactly, tender means just cannot be drafted by another team. Turn over on some NAHL teams is over the top. Some teams go through players like a bag of chips. Coaches main concern is winning and owners top focus is drawing fans and making money. No one is looking out for the players in the NAHL so be careful.
