Justin Nachbaur

Justin Nachbaur, who signed an AHL contract with Charlotte following an appearance in both Florida’s rookie camp and training camp, has been recalled by the Checkers. The 21-year-old began his rookie season with the ECHL’s Greenville Swamp Rabbits, where he has tallied six points (4g, 2a) in nine games. Prior to turning pro, Nachbaur posted 89 points (45g, 44a) and 228 penalty minutes over 216 WHL games with the Prince Albert Raiders.

Saige McKay, Carrigan Umpherville and Kennesha Miswaggon

Trio of college stars turning Pimicikamak into a hockey hotbed. The odds are stacked against any kid in Pimicikamak who laces up their skates and dreams of the big leagues. And yet three lifelong friends from the community — Saige McKay, Carrigan Umpherville and Kennesha Miswaggon — have all carved an unlikely path into elite, collegiate-level hockey, making them role models for not only female players but also Indigenous players. McKay and Umpherville are rookies with the women's hockey team at Long Island University, on the outskirts of New York City; Miswaggon plays with the University of British Columbia.
