WYTHEVILLE,VA-

The Blue Ridge Bobcats, proud members of the FPHL, are pleased to announce the signing of forward Nikolai Dulak for the 2026-2027 season.

The 5'10" 181lb forward comes to the Bobcats after six seasons of high level amateur hockey. The 24 year old spent three seasons at the junior level with the NAHL's New Mexico Ice Wolves, posting 87 points (27G, 60A), 60 penalty minutes and a +19 rating in 148 games.

The Mahtomedi, Minnesota native then moved on to the collegiate ranks, spending the past three seasons at NCAA Division III Hamline University. With the Pipers, he recorded 29 points (14 goals, 15 assists) in 52 games.

“Nikolai is a really exciting player for us to add," said Head Coach and General Manager of Hockey Operations, Vojtech Zemlicka. "He has great poise and composure with the puck and a very high hockey IQ, so he sees the ice well and makes smart decisions under pressure. He’s an extremely fast skater, plays a simple and effective game, and he’s not afraid to get gritty and compete in the hard areas. That combination of speed, intelligence and toughness is exactly what we like. We believe his style will translate very well to our team and make us even harder to play against.”
