“There are a lot of good hockey players available and you see the success of several guys in our league and around the country who played major junior hockey last year. I definitely think this is a good thing for college hockey. We’re excited, we’re in the thick of it, like a lot of schools, again this year, in trying to build the strongest possible roster.” UNH head coach Mike Souza, November 20, 2025
A few weeks after Coach Souza referenced efforts to add Canadian Major Junior players, Mason Zebeski and Parker Von Richter of the Ontario Hockey League and Cash Koch of the Western Hockey League committed to UNH. These are their profiles (see also the 2025-26 statistics sheet at the end of the article):
