Following an NCHA split last weekend, Adrian will now host Team USA and the United States National Team Development Program Under-18 (USNTDP) lineup. Adrian is 4-6 lifetime against the USNTDP U-18 team, which trains aspiring hockey players to become National Hockey League and NCAA Division I prospects.
In 1996, USA Hockey launched a new initiative called the National Team Development Program, originally based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. In March of 2015 the USA Hockey Foundation purchased Compuware Arena (now USA Hockey Arena) in Plymouth, Michigan.
