<p>Over the past few seasons, the Calgary Flames have selected several college-bound players in the NHL Draft. That habit has led them to have quite a few promising young players playing in the NCAA.</p>
<div class="bam-inline-promotion-block" data-max-length="2" data-placement-id="2109" data-context="web-content-promocard" data-property-id="328"></div>
<p>On Thursday, a pair of Flames prospects were named finalists for year-end awards in their respective conferences.</p>
<h2>Trevor Hoskin</h2>
<p><a href="https://publish.flamesnation.ca/2024/06/29/calgary-flames-select-trevor-hoskin-at-106th-overall-in-2024-nhl-draft/">A fourth-round selection by the Flames in the 2024 NHL Draft</a>, Hoskin was selected as a 20-year-old after a superb final season in the Ontario Junior Hockey League with the Cobourg Cougars.</p>
<p>Hoskin moved onto the collegiate ranks this season, joining the Niagara University Purple Eagles. He adjusted very nicely, posting 12 goals and 27 assists for 39 points. He led all rookies in the Atlantic Hockey America conference in points, and he was fourth overall among skaters of any experience level.</p>
<p>Hoskin was named a finalist for the conference&#8217;s Rookie of the Year award, along with Army&#8217;s Jack Ivey and Sacred Heart&#8217;s Ajeet Gundarah. Hoskin was previously named to the conference&#8217;s  Second All-Star Team and All-Rookie Team earlier in the week.</p>
<h2>Arsenii Sergeev</h2>
<p><a href="https://publish.flamesnation.ca/2021/07/24/flames-select-arseni-sergeyev-at-205th-overall/">A seventh-round selection by the Flames way back in 2021</a>, Sergeev has had a pretty unique path after being drafted out of the North American Hockey League from the awesomely-named Shreveport Mudbugs. He spent a season in the United States Hockey League with the Tri-City Storm, then two seasons in the NCAA with the University of Connecticut Huskies.</p>
<p>Sergeev transferred to Penn State for the 2024-25 season – the Nittany Lions wanted a reliable starter and Sergeev was looking for a place where he could play a bunch – and aside from an injury absence spanning November and December, <a href="https://publish.flamesnation.ca/2025/02/24/arsenii-sergeev-is-the-flames-next-netminder-worth-keeping-an-eye-on/">Sergeev has been precisely what the doctor ordered for Penn State</a>. Heck, since returning to action in January, he&#8217;s been one of the NCAA&#8217;s top netminders, period.</p>
<p>For his efforts, Sergeev was named a finalist for the Big 10 conference&#8217;s Goaltender of the Year award, along with Michigan State&#8217;s Trey Augustine and Ohio State&#8217;s Logan Terness. (If you&#8217;re fan of irony, Terness and Sergeev were teammates at UConn in 2022-23, and Terness transferred to Ohio State because it seemed like Sergeev was going to get the reins at UConn.)</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for predictions: Hoskin seems like a strong contender to be named the AHA&#8217;s Rookie of the Year based on his offensive stats, while we would suggest that Augustine, a Red Wings prospect, has the inside track for Big 10&#8217;s Goaltender of the Year honours based on his superb numbers this season.</p>
