Captain Badger

Say hello to Jack McCabe, a rugged team-first defenseman who prides himself on sacrificing his body.  A true Wisconsin Badger, a product of Eau Claire Memorial High School, has been thrust into the international hockey spotlight when he was named captain of Team USA at the 2013 World Juniors. Bucky the Badger has a great track record in big-time international hockey, with Badger Bob and his son Mark leading the way a generation ago, and more recently, the 2004 WJC Gold medal winners Mike Eaves coaching and his son Patrick sniping.

MCabe is deep voiced, broad shouldered 6'+ 200 lb. + defenseman looking to make a big hit. block a shot and lead a rush, on his first shift.  He embraces challenges, and will get one soon on December 28 as USA takes on highly favored Russia behind enemy lines.  This game will be the best barometer as to the fortunes of Team USA here in Ufa.
