UConn men’s hockey’s 2018 recruiting class has proven to be a program-changing group. The Huskies have finished in fifth and fourth place in Hockey East in the last two seasons, respectively, appeared in the national polls for the first time in program history, and grabbed two victories over teams ranked No. 2 in the country.
Of the four draftees in the class, three — Ruslan Iskhakov, Kale Howarth, and Tomas Vomacka — have turned pro. Meanwhile, Jonny Evans was named an All-American and Carter Turnbull tied for the team lead in goals with 12 as a sophomore.
