Potter tallied nine goals in conference play, third among rookies behind Sacha Boisvert (North Dakota) and Austin Burnevik (St. Cloud State).His 13 total goals this season is tied 11th overall among all NCHC skaters. The 18-year-old from Minnesota added six assists in conference play to total 15 points in 22 conference games. His 81 shots on goal led rookies in NCHC action.
“He found his stride, he found his confidence, and we kept telling him, ‘You’re doing almost everything right, playing hard, and doing the right things. It’s going to go in.’ And it started going in for him and he’s playing his best hockey when we need him to be playing his best hockey and that makes us dangerous,” said head coach Greg Powers.
He boasted three multigoal games this season, including two in back-to-back key conference matchups against then-No. 3 Western Michigan and at Omaha.
In conference play, he never went more than three games without tallying a point and his 44.8 faceoff percentage ranks sixth among NCHC freshmen with a minimum 100 attempts.
