NAHL Tenders Signed

A couple of Madison Capitols have signed tenders with NAHL clubs already. Tony Dischler is a 1988 forward who signed a tender with Alpena. This was not a surprise to me as I had heard from a pretty good source that Tony was told by the Capitols prior to coming to play for them that if he did make the jump to their team he would be tendered by a Junior team. Blake Kessel, a 1989 defenseman for the Caps who led his team in scoring last season, has also signed a tender with Traverse City.

In the Hockey Thoughts blog, it's noted that Brent Gwidt and Derrick LaPoint have also signed tenders with NAHL clubs, although as both were taken in the USHL draft neither will likely end up ever playing in the NAHL. There's also some good info over there on potential draftees from the state of Wisconsin, and a potential high-caliber Wisconsin boys high school hockey player transfer to another school for next season prior to the new transfer rules being in place.
