Personal Statement

My name is Michael Carden, a Goaltender from Colorado and a student of the 2023 Graduating Class.  I’ve played Ice Hockey for 9 years, participating as a goaltender for 6. I began the 2022/2023 playing USPHL with the Bridgewater Bandits, but it quickly ended due to injury.  Mindset, Dedication, Teamwork, Drive, and Laughter--This is me!  Fully healed, I am ready to play juniors again, followed by playing college hockey.  Outside of hockey, I enjoy the outdoors in the great state of Colorado, participating in everything from camping and mountain biking to snowboarding in the winter. Family and school are by far important aspects of my life.  Studying and keeping good grades are something that I abide by, as hockey does not last forever and having a degree is the most important thing for the future thereafter.

Make no mistake, the CCMHS is a Junior Hockey Showcase, not a pro hockey showcase. The purpose of the CCMHS is to provide avenues for our participants to move on to Junior, and then NCAA College, hockey. Because of this focus, our recruiting efforts are focused on bringing in the best Junior and NCAA coaches and scouts possible.
