Brindley ended a whirlwind year with Worlds success

The last six months have been nothing short of an adventure for Blue Jackets forward Gavin Brindley. Beginning his streak of success, Brindley paved the way for Team USA at the IIHF World Junior Championships, tallying six goals and four assists as the team secured a gold medal in January. Immediately following the trip to Sweden, Brindley turned his sights back on his sophomore season at the University of Michigan. Despite the Wolverines falling short after a Frozen Four appearance, Brindley was named Big Ten Player of the Year, an AHCA West first-team All-American and a first-team All-Big Ten selection thanks to 25 goals and 53 points in 40 games.
