Like everyone else, our social media timelines were littered with #BackToSchool photos. You know the ones – kids with their backpacks, either walking out the front door or waiting for the bus. We don’t have photos of Michigan’s best young hockey players wearing their velcro shoes. We do, however, have some from their youth hockey days, and we decided to pull a few for a ‘welcome back to school’ celebratory post.
All the photos from the MiHockey archives, and bear with us, we couldn’t ID every single person. If you see any players we missed, let us know – @MiHockeyNow or Facebook.com/MiHockeyNow.
