History

2009-10: Shore played for the Ajax-Pickering Raiders minor midget AAA team in Ontario. In 68 games he scored 40 goals with 48 assists and had 35 penalty minutes. Shore was selected by Barrie in the fourth round (96th overall) of the 2010 OHL Priority Draft. He committed to playing college hockey at the University of Maine in 2012-13.

2010-11: Shore attended the Hill Academy, a private school in Aurora, Ontario. He finished with 95 points in 61 games – scoring 33 goals with 62 assists.

2011-12: Shore was an assistant captain for the Whitby Fury in the Ontario Junior Hockey League and skated for Canada East in the U19 World Junior A Challenge. In 41 regular season games he scored 29 goals with 29 assists and had 26 penalty minutes. The Fury finished first in the East Division and advanced to the playoff championship series against Stouffville. In 23 playoff games Shore scored 7 goals with 25 assists and had 10 penalty minutes. Shore was the leading scorer for Canada East at the WJAC, scoring 2 goals with 4 assists in six games. He was invited to the NHL Draft Combine and was ranked 58th amongst North American skaters in Central Scouting's final rankings prior to the 2012 NHL Draft.

 

Talent Analysis

Shore is a talented playmaker with very good vision, also a scorer that can score goals in bunches.  According to his former GM with Whitby (OJHL) Frank Robinson, Shore plays well at both ends of the rink and works hard.  Considered to be a great person with great leadership, may be a future captain.   He’s only an average skater, especially in terms of his acceleration which needs some work.  Additionally, he only has average size but with good balance, he’s difficult to knock off the puck.  The NCAA will help him develop physically and get better defensively.

 

Future

Will attend the University of Maine.

The Dallas Stars are not afraid to delve into the European ranks at the pro or junior level. In fact, many of the Stars best defensive prospects were drafted out of Europe and have worked their way up the ranks fairly quickly. Former Stars General Manager Joe Nieuwendyk, a Cornell alum, did not at all mind going for NCAA or NCAA-bound players. As a result, the Stars boast a pretty impressive pipeline coming in from the college ranks.

Despite a bit of flux in recent years from ownership on down, the Dallas Stars have made it a point to restock their organizational depth with quality prospects. They continually bolster one of the better prospect stables in the league and have a great mix of talent and player types that can fill virtually any role that opens up in the organization in the near future.
