I wasn't about to cover a pro hockey team for an entire season without putting together a feature.
Two of Stockton's players have come from an incredible UNB system that has helped produce players like Couturier, Landeskog, Garland, and Batherson. It deserves more recognition for what it's brought to professional hockey over the years... over 100 UNB V-Red grads have made it to the AHL. 34, to the NHL.
It's unusual for a team to be so rich in terms of U Sports bloodlines, but it's becoming more of a trend. Stockton's three alumni all have stories worth telling and I hope you enjoy this piece.
Can't thank Brandon Weiss, from Stockton, and Andy Campbell, from UNB, enough for helping me create this.

That's Andy "former voice of the Saint John Flames" Campbell.
Great article, Scorp!
