Men’s hockey: Badgers add Ryder Donovan to already strong 2019 recruitment class

The University of Wisconsin men’s hockey team turned heads in the recruitment world this past week with the addition of Minnesota native Ryder Donovan to play for the Badgers next year.

Donovan, a talented center from Duluth East High School, will join other forwards — Alex Turcotte, Cole Caufield and Owen Lindmark — in next season’s talented incoming freshman class.

Donovan will also have the opportunity to play with returning players such as Sean Dhooghe and K’Andre Miller.

Donovan signed his National Letter of Intent Monday after backing out of his original commitment to North Dakota last fall.
