He has already played in 3 games for Minot with 1 assist and is a +1.  Halliday started this season with the St. Cloud Blizzard of the NAHL playing in 3 games and was a +1.

Cameron Lantz, 18, from Coleraine, MN has played 18 games for the Lumberjacks scoring 2 goals and 9 assists and is a +18.  Lantz will begin his 2nd call-up with the Minnesota Wilderness of the NAHL located in Cloquet, MN this season.

Bailey Huber, 18, from Mahtomedi, MN has started 15 games in goal for Granite City boasting an 11-4 record including 4 shutouts and has a 1.86 GAA with a .920 save %. This will mark Huber’s first time playing at the next level for the Minnesota Wilderness of the NAHL located in Cloquet, MN.

Lumberjacks assistant coach Mat Hall stated, “We are very excited for our hard-working players to get an opportunity at the NAHL level. We are very fortunate to have a great working partnership with the NAHL and all the coaching staffs.”
