Round 1, NHL Draft 2016
Diagnosed at age 11, the first thing Riley Tufte asked was, "Can I still play hockey?"
Claiming the title of Mr. Hockey in 2015-16, the Coon Rapids, Minnesota, native, has made a career out of answering that question with a resounding YES!
Selected in the 1st Round, 25th overall, of the 2016 NHL Draft by the Dallas Stars, Tufte starred for the University of Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs before making his pro debut.
Now a member of the Colorado Avalanche, Riley is excited to bring Dskate to Minnesota and to provide T1D hockey players the opportunity to thrive on the ice with the support they deserve.

WHY DSKATE
A Family-Friendly Program with Something for Everyone.
Dskate isn't just a hockey program. Nor is it simply a diabetes education and care program. Rather, Dskate is a one-of-a-kind combination of all of the elements that are missing from the T1D support ecosystem.
With a complimentary Dskate U program, a diabetes education symposium for family members, family events each night and discounted hotel rates that enable everyone to stay together, Dskate is a place you can call home.
