Yesterday

Brock Nelson, Jackson LaCombe, Jake Guentzel, Jake Oettinger and Kyle Connor. Nelson, Lacombe, Guentzel and Oettinger were born in Minnesota or spent large parts of their upbringing there. The state has been the site of a severe immigration crackdown by the Trump administration.

Adn Kyle Connor...

Connor, who plays for the Winnipeg Jets in Canada, said he had skipped the White House meeting as he wanted to concentrate on the rest of the NHL season, which resumes on Wednesday.
