Nick Trefry

   Welcome back to another blog for Biscuits and Breezers! In this blog I will be introducing you all to a phenomenal player on roster with the Helena Bighorns of the NA3HL. He has proven to be an out of this world play maker as well as quite the fire cracker of a skater. He has risen to the top ranks of the NA3 and doesn't plan on stopping there. This particular player shows sharp attitude and a winning mentality with his every move. The next Spotlight Player is Helena Bighorns defenseman Nick Trefry!
 
 
Nick Trefry - Helena Bighorns (D)
 
Height: 6 ft 1 in Weight: 190 lbs Hometown: Upland, California, USA 2014-2015 Stats: 12 goals in 32 games played, 22 assists, 34 TPs, +/- of +32, and 24 PIMs
 
 
  Throughout the 2014-2015 season so far, Nick Trefry has become a very well known name around the city of Helena as well as around the NA3HL and for very good reason. Trefry has been a break out player this season for the Bighorns and continues to blast through the ranks of the NA3 on a non-stop track to an outstanding season. Nick has absolutely set outstanding levels of performance for not only the defenseman in Helena, but as well as for all the entire NA3HL. As he continues to break out and play outside of the box, Trefry has brought a new and very bright light to the position of defenseman. He is continuing to show that blueliners should not only just play defensively. In fact, he has brought great attention to the offensive possibilities defenseman have and should embrace. Yes Trefry will be a homebody blueliner when his team calls for it, but he can compete as well, and sometimes even better, than most forwards. Nick has an incredible ability to whip around any ice sheet and maintain a very fast paced, progressive game. He is the type of player that plays full steam ahead until the end of the game and never lets his guard down. His puck handling skills are very advanced and he has great potential for the higher levels of the sport. Trefry can dangle opposing skaters, he can bring the puck coast to coast, and he can go top shelf with absolute ease. Nick is the type of player every team needs at least two of on roster. He brings a huge game to the ice and is a skater everyone notices immediately. He gains very positive attention for his confidence during any moment in the game as well as his unrelenting ambition to succeed. One can definitely say that Nick is a "fire-cracker skater" due to his talent that allows him to bring the heat on his opponents offensively and pressure them with a major physical game. He brings a tame yet impeccable ferociousness to the ice that gives him a near perfect amount of aggression and calmness. Not only does Nick pack a perfect offensive game, he can absolutely throw bodies and create a brick-wall defense on the turn of a dime. I admire Trefry's game not only because of his in-game performances, but also due to his impeccable leadership skills. Nick is a great example for rookies to mold their own personal games after and is a illustrious leader among his fellow veterans. You don't see many players with Nick's skill level on every junior roster, but fortunately, more and more defenseman are acquiring those key offensive abilities. It is without a doubt that he is leading a trend that is having blueliners play from end zone to end zone and the entire ice sheet in between. Trefry certainly has an incredibly bright future in the sport and is on a fast track to achieving great success! Best of luck Nick with the Bighorns and your future hockey career!

  1. Sounds like one great player, but then I'm bias. He's my great (and I do mean great) nephew.

Spotlight Player Emil Travergard       Biscuits and Breezers         Welcome back to another blog for Biscuits and Breezers! This is another post for the Spotlight Player series, and the player featured today, is a prime example of the defensive qualities that are capable in blue liners. Trending on an upward slope, this particular player brings fire to the ice as well as quite the chill. He may be an independent skater, but he is almost always his team's biggest supporter in the long run. The next Spotlight Player is Haninge Anchors defenseman Emil Travergard!     Emil Travergard - Haninge Anchors (D)   Height: 6 ft 2 in  Weight:  215 lbs Hometown: Stockholm, Sweden 2013-2014 Stats: 1 goal in 23 games played, 3 assists, 4 TPs, and 14 PIMs with Hammarby J20         While watching Travergard on the ice during his stay in the WSHL, he certainly brought a spar...
Jamie Zaleski Biscuits and Breezers    Welcome back to another blog of Biscuits and Breezers! Today you will be able to meet and get to know FHL Danville Dashers center Jamie Zaleski a little bit better. You don't come across a player very often that is so passionate about the sport that he takes immense pride in every game he plays or every time he represents his team, but today I believe I was able to talk to one of those chosen few. Jamie is an amazing player who beams passion and talent every time he walks onto the ice for a game and when you see him play, I guarantee that by the end of the game you will be as stunned as I was when I first watched a Dashers game. Zaleski is the perfect player seeing that he has the ideal combinations of aggressive and physical plays, speed, and can score whenever it needs be. I have seen some pretty aggressive players in my time but Jamie Zaleski is the definition of aggression out on the ice. His hits are almost alway...
#32   Biscuits and Breezers          Welcome back to another blog of Biscuits and Breezers! In this blog we will talk about the Oilers' team regrowth and Wild prospect Mario Lucia breaking his leg. Starting off with the Edmonton Oilers. I have recently talked about Taylor Hall's signing and now we have another. This time it's Jordan Eberle's turn. He was just inked to a 6 year $36 million contract extension on Tuesday. With one year left on his entry level contract, this extension will keep him as the new youthful generation of players until the 2018-2019 season. Hopefully with Nail Yakupov, Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, they can produce a team almost as good as in the Gretzky era. Just give them a few years and maybe they will rise up and become a main threat again. We will see! Good luck Jordan with the new contract! I am quite excited to see the upcoming team.     Next thing we will talk about is Ma...
