Ahead of Saturday and Sunday’s competitions in Toronto the pair shared how the Bulldogs helped shape them into professional all-stars.
“I really think that just my experience at UMD really propelled me to continue, to want to improve in hockey and play pro hockey and just really love the game,” Brodt, a PHF rookie, shared.
“I learned so much about the game while being at UMD,” Morin added. “Growing as a leader especially and bringing out my offensive talents really when I got to the end at UMD.”
