First half ends with the game in a 2-2 tie. Second half about to bingo now. #BringTheEnergy DMV Hockey Prospects

Some of the best hockey you will ever see in a showcase just took place in the second half this evening. Central/West scored with 4:30 to play to give them a 3-2 lead. Cont… (1 of 2)

But fate & defenseman Drew Pfeufer (Washington Little Caps) had other plans. With the goaltender pulled in the 6-on-5, Pfeufer tapped home a loose puck to score the game tying goal with 7.8 seconds left. Game ends in a 3-3 tie. Fast, fun hockey was played. Can’t ask for much more! (2/2)

Daniel Viscione (Dan Viscione) gets HNIB Capital District on the board just 40 seconds into the opening frame with a shot on the off-wing side. Assist goes to Max Rutkowski. #FirstShiftGoals DMV Hockey Prospects

South Shore absolutely turned on the gas in the second half to prove why they’re one of the best teams in the showcase. Final score goes in their favor 5-2. Best of luck to their squad in the playoffs.

As we conclude the 49th Annual Hockey Night Major Showcase, it comes time for the best tradition in showcase hockey…All-Star Selections. This year HNIB Capital District earns 2 All-Star Selections and 2 Alternate Selections. Stay tuned for brief bios on each of the boys selected. DMV Hockey Prospects

Leading off the selections with the alternates…first up we have the undeniable energy leader & leading scorer for @hnibdc this year, forward Brady Gannon (Hingham Hockey). Brady has tons of skill & a non-stop motor. He’s always ready to play and lead the team with his energy.

Next up for the Alternates is one of many multi-selection All-Stars on the HNIB Capital District roster, forward Daniel Viscione (Dan Viscione) (from BMHS Hockey). Daniel is an insanely skilled forward who plays the game w/ a workman-like attitude & a quiet confidence that coaches love.

On the the All-Star Selections for HNIB Capital District. We’ll start with a two-time Hockey Night All-Star, defenseman Ryan Wallace (from Lawrence Academy). Ryan is a coaches dream - a talented, hardworking and very coachable D with a very bright future in the game. He gets better every year!

Last, and certainly not least, for the selections is now a 3-time All-Star for HNIB Capital District at Hockey Night, forward Max Rutkowski (U18 Esmark Stars AAA). Max is the skilled forward who doesn’t mind also playing a physical, gritty game. He’ll battle in the corners & dazzle with his hands.
