For the March 2020 edition of Minnesota Hockey Magazine, I wrote about Quinnipiac junior forward Odeen Tufto, the best Minnesotan playing college hockey you likely don't know.
The Chaska, MN native left high school at St. Thomas Academy without a single Division 1 offer. After going to the BCHL and three different USHL stops, Tufto made his way to Connecticut where he's been among the nation's best playmakers. The past two seasons saw Tufto crack the top-10 among top assists. The feature goes into Tufto's path to Quinnipiac, the challenges of being a smaller player, why Matthew Barzal and Mitch Marner are his favorite players and much more.
This edition of MHM was sold at the Minnesota Boys HS State Tournament. Coincidentally, St. Thomas Academy made it there as well. Still, you can find it online and read just as easily.
