George Brkljajic played with the Clearwater Ice Storm during the 2022–2023 season before continuing his development with the Florida Alliance. He went on to make an immediate impact at the collegiate level with the UNF Hockey Club, earning AAU Division III Player of the Year honors after an incredible season. George tallied 71 goals and 30 assists for a total of 101 points in just 23 games, breaking the program’s single-season goal record, cementing himself as one of the most dominant players in the league. “Playing for Chase Bafia and Clint Walden put a new offensive perspective of play in my head. Hockey IQ and the importance of sense was introduced to me by these two coaches and it elevated my game so much. The intense practices and detail oriented drills we did made me the player I am today. Beyond thankful for what I learned with the Clearwater Ice Storm.” #ClearwaterIceStorm #SAHOF #SFHL
