In two seasons at North Dakota, goaltender Matej Tomek has seen action in just two games.<\/p>\n

With Cam Johnson returning for his senior season, Tomek has decided to play in the United States Hockey League in 2017-18 after being drafted in the second round this past week in Phase II of the USHL draft by the Waterloo Black Hawks.<\/p>\n

A Philadelphia Flyers prospect, Tomek has just one season of junior eligibility left before he can choose another school or turn pro for the 2018-19 season.<\/p>\n

“Honestly, I have a lot of mixed feelings,” Tomek said to the Hockey News<\/em><\/a>. “I’m very excited to get an opportunity in a new place, but at the same time, I’m really upset at leaving everything I’ve built here. I’ve found friendships that will last a lifetime.”<\/p>\n

This past season, Tomek played parts of two games against Miami and Colorado College, seeing 32 minutes of action and allowing four goals for a 7.46 GAA and a .692 save percentage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
