Des Moines Buccaneers News Release


DES MOINES, IA - The Buccaneers selected 18 players yesterday in the 2020 USHL Phase II Draft. They acquired 11 forwards, five defenseman and two goaltenders through 18 rounds of drafting. Des Moines also made a trade for defenseman John Prokop (2001) of Green Bay, sending Des Moines' second round pick in the 2021 USHL Phase II Draft to the Gamblers.

"We are very excited to welcome our newly drafted players and families to the Buccaneers' organization," GM Tom Mannino said. "We are also pleased to welcome John Prokop to our organization. John brings significant USHL experience and an exciting skill set to our backend. This move helps ensure we are delivering a veteran returning defensive core for next season. Over the course of both draft days we feel we were able to acquire the right players that fit our immediate roster needs as well as plan for future success."
