Livonia's Barczuk commits to LSSU

According to the Lake Superior State hockey blog, the Lakers have received a verbal commitment from forward Daniel Barczuk of the USHL's Ohio Junior Blue Jackets.

Last season, the 6-foot-1, 185-pound Livonia native posted nine goals and 22 points in 56 games after having posted two goals in four games for the Lincoln Stars earlier in the season. Barczuk was fourth on the team in scoring, finishing behind current Laker, and fellow Livonia native, Zac MacVoy.

In 2005-06, Barczuk posted a goal and 10 penalty minutes in 10 games for the USHL champion Cedar Rapids RoughRiders.
