Cooper Marody, the Flyers’ sixth round pick in the 2015 NHL Draft, is having a solid freshman season at the University of Michigan.
His 16 points in 22 games are good numbers for a first-year forward in college hockey. He ranked 23rd in our Flyers Top 25 Under 25 ranking back in January as a result, and while he’s still young and it’s still early in his career, he’s a very interesting prospect to watch for this team.
He’s also apparently a pretty decent musician. Marody performed a cover of Justin Bieber’s “Love Yourself” last night at Michigan’s annual “Mock Rock” talent show — a tradition in which student-athletes get on stage and typically make fools of themselves. Marody didn’t do that. Kid’s got a voice, it seems.
