Attention kids not selected in the USHL draft: Look at Gerry Mayhew. Undrafted in the USHL, made Cedar Rapids as a Free Agent, Scholarship to Ferris State, 9 goals in 9 AHL games thus far. Never quit and work for what you want.
Just got word that Cedar Rapids native Avery Sturtz got the call from Sioux City (USHL) . He will suit up for a Musketeer preseason game. So awesome for you
@ASturtz_1
Cedar Rapids is going to lose some high quality hockey players to the college ranks, but it isnt their on ice play that will give me the fondest memories. What these young men contributed to our community during their time here far surpasses everything. High character kids
I am heart broken for the Cedar Rapids organization, staff , and players. Truly unbelieveable. The aftermath of this fucking derecho continues to linger
Hoping an NAHL team takes a shot on Cedar Rapids native Avery Sturtz today. 6'2 goalie that has developed well over the past year. Sturtz had a fabulous Cedar Rapids

Man he looks like Gene Wilder walking out of the factory in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory. I keep waiting for the somersault but it isnt coming
Just an update....my family was blessed and came away relatively unscathed. Shingles, gutters, back fence, but no structure damage. The majority of Cedar Rapids wasnt as lucky. Please say some extra prayers for our community
Will Zmolek looks so much stronger this year. The Bemidji State commit is becoming a quality shutdown defenseman. Brother Riese also made huge strides between his 1st and 2nd year in the USHL
With their 15th round selection in the 2019 USHL Phase II draft, Cedar Rapids selects Nick Portz, forward, from St Cloud Minnesota. Portz played for the Minnesota Wilderness of the NAHL last season
Whether
@RidertownUSA
gets into the playoffs or not tomorrow night, they have played some good hockey down the stretch. 6-1-2-1 in the last 10. Has to have fans optimistic for next season
Cedar Rapids
@RidertownUSA
boasts 5 forwards in the top 10 in
@USHL
scoring. Justin Hryckowian leads the Riders with 7 points (2 g 5 a). Robby Newton (6 pts) Jack O'leary (5 pts) Tyler Rollwagon (5 pts) and Grant SIlianoff (5 points) are also in the top 10
Since the season is over. Thank you and good luck to the players moving on to college next season. You were a great asset to Cedar Rapids not only on the ice, but also in our community. You came in as unknowns but left as heroes to many young kids in our community
Congratulations to
@AndyJohnsonSCM
and the Sioux City Musketeers on the Clark Cup! Andy has worked his ass off for this and is one of the good guys in the USHL

When you see Mark Carlson coach, you see intensity and passion to win. That is only a small part of him. He loves Cedar Rapids and the organization spends countless hours in the community making it a better place. He instills this in his players and makes them better men.
"We want to get the arena up running as fast as we can. But we also have a tremendous amount of feeling and sadness for what has happened here. That is at the forefront of our thoughts right now,"

If a Program kid scored 5 goals in the game, the USHL wouldn't stop promoting it. A Cedar Rapids play does so and not a single tweet. Should we be surprised?
4 points from Aidan McDonough (1g, 3 a), 3 points from Will Zmolek (1g,2a) and 2 goals from Grant Silianoff paces

to a 6-3 win over Dubuque. Cedar Rapids is now within 1 point of Chicago for 2nd place with a game in hand.
With all this homeschooling going on, we will see how long it takes Parents to realize that the Teachers are not the problem and their kid is a little shithead

Limited to just seeing Cedar Rapids camp today, but the 3 players that stood out to me were Joe Fleming, David Chen, and Jake Percival. Small sample size but kept looking at my roster to find out who these players are.
