Jerry York is showing no sign of slowing down on the recruiting trail, adding to a monster class of 2023 by landing the commitment of Will Smith, the #1-ranked American prospect and #2 overall prospect in his birth year per ranking site Neutral Zone.
Smith, a member of the US national Under-17 team, recently decommitted from Northeastern. A 6’0’’ center from Lexington, MA, Smith is expected to be a top prospect in the 2023 NHL Draft.
Smith has scored 19 points in 16 games so far with the USNTDP U-17s and will likely factor in to U18 and World Junior teams in the next few years.
