June 27, 2015

- University of Denver forward Troy Terry (Highlands Ranch, Colo.) had his name called on Day 2 of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, with Anaheim selecting him in Round 5 (148th Overall). A complete list of players selected by NHL clubs this weekend can be viewed HERE.

Terry, 17, is entering his freshman season at DU in 2015-16 after spending the 2014-15 season with USA Hockey's National U18 Team, tallying 19G-25A-44P in 66 games played. He won Gold with Team USA at the 2015 IIHF World U18 Championships in Switzerland and captured Bronze at last summer's U18 Junior World Cup where he tallied 4G-1A-5P in five games played.

Current members of the Pioneers to have been previously drafted into the NHL include sophomore forward Danton Heinen (Boston), junior defenseman Will Butcher (Colorado) and goalie Evan Cowley (Florida) as well as senior forward Quentin Shore (Ottawa).

After finishing their 2014-15 campaign with a record of 24-14-2 and advancing to the `Elite Eight' for the first time since 2011, the Pioneers came in at No. 5 on the final edition of both the USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine poll.
