Riley Tufte came to his third Dallas Stars Prospect Development Camp last week as a savvy veteran among his younger counterparts. The 2016 No. 25 overall has two years of college play under his belt – including the experience of being a key player for both an NCAA title winner and a bronze medal-winning Team USA in the 2018 World Junior Championships.
The older and wiser left wing also has a new confidence in his own identity as a player and is taking his place as a leader of his fellow prospects, writes Mike Heika:
“I remember my first year I came in and didn’t know what to expect -- it’s nerve-wracking,” Tufte said.
