Red Wings prospect and University of Minnesota-Duluth forward Max Plante is playing with his brother, Zam, on the Bulldogs this upcoming season, and the Duluth News-Tribune’s Bulldog Insider podcast featured the two recently in an episode discussing the brothers as the main topic:
After two years apart, brothers Zam and Max Plante are back home in the Twin Ports, and roommates again. The Hermantown natives both moved away in 2022 to play hockey elsewhere following a win for the Hawks in the Minnesota Class A state championship game. Zam Plante went to Chicago, and later Fargo, to play in the United States Hockey League while younger brother, Max, moved to Plymouth, Michigan, to play for the USA Hockey National Team Development Program.
