In terms of college hockey recruiting news, this one is seismic.
According to sources, Cole Eiserman (Newburyport, Mass.) has informed the University of Minnesota that he's decided to decommit and would like to play college hockey closer to home.
Eiserman committed to Minnesota on Sept. 7 of last year, as he entered his U17 season with the United States National Team Development Program. He was sensational last season with the program, scoring 43 goals and totaling 72 points in 42 games.
In the U18 World Championship earlier this year, Eiserman had nine goals in seven games to help Team USA win the gold medal.
On Wednesday, Eiserman also committed to a Beanpot school.
