“Thatcher Demko is a big/athletic goaltender, technically very sound and his athleticism and side to side explosiveness are off the charts”, comments ISS Hockey Director of Scouting Dennis MacInnis. “Demko has earned the starters job after spending the first half of the season in rotation, which for a freshman is quite impressive.”

The full monthly ISS Hockey rankings are available within RinkNet, software technology tailored for the general manager, scout, coach, player agent or super fan that wants in-depth information on prospects for the upcoming NHL and CHL drafts.
