Muskegon Lumberjacks News Release


MUSKEGON, MI - The Muskegon Lumberjacks are proud to announce the tender signing of Tynan Lawrence. A 2008 birth year from Fredericton, NB, CAN. Lawrence is currently on the 16u AAA at Shattuck St. Mary's.

"It's a great opportunity here" Lawrence said. He continued "I explored all of my options, and I really like the Lumberjacks. What they do with their players with their development."

The Lumberjacks aren't strangers to tendering players from Canada. Sacha Boisvert currently ranked #17 among North American Skaters in the 2024 NHL draft was a tender of the Jacks during the 2021-2022 season. Being able to see what Sacha has been able to accomplish with the Lumberjacks and choosing the USHL route is something that Lawrence said made his decision easier.

While he has been playing this season at Shattuck St. Mary's in Faribault, MN Lawrence recently represented Canada at the 2024 Youth Olympics in Korea where he recorded 4 points in 4 games helping Canada to an appearance in the semi-finals.

Lumberjacks President of Hockey Operations Steve Lowe is excited about Tynan joining the Lumberjacks next season. "This is a really big signing for the Lumberjacks as well as the USHL as a whole." Said Lowe. "Signing a player of his (Lawrence's) caliber to the league shows just how impressive the development is in the USHL" Lowe included.

While Tynan shared his excitement to join the Jacks his father Darren shared the same enthusiasm. "We had a really good feeling and know it will be a good opportunity for Tynan to see what he has at the next level." Darren continued "It's the whole package as far as the opportunity, the league, and the organization. It's a really great fit."

Head coach of the Lumberjacks Parker Burgess also spoke on the addition of Tynan to the Lumberjacks organization. "We are excited to add Tynan and his family to the Lumberjacks organization. He is a high-end talent and future NHL prospect. We are looking forward to working with him and helping him develop on and off the ice."

As a tender Lawrence is set to play with the Lumberjacks starting in the 2024-2025 season joining Rudolfs Berzkalns who the Jacks tendered earlier this season.
