Talent Analysis

Holy Angels coach Greg Trebil: "Danny’s developed physically so well. He’s really a strong kid and he uses that well. And when you put that together with the fact that he’s just got amazing hands as well as view of the ice, he’s just second to nobody that I’ve ever coached before. And the type of elected leadership that Danny provided really helped us to become a much better team than maybe we even had the potential to be."

Future

Will attend the University of North Dakota.
