CLIENT SPOTLIGHT: COOPER SOLLER ⚡️
What a year for Rypen athlete Cooper Soller.
⚡️Drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2026 NHL Draft.
⚡️USHL Rookie of the Year.
⚡️Clark Cup Champion.
⚡️Played every regular-season game.
⚡️Continued to show up, compete, produce, and lead through one of the biggest seasons of his young career.
I could not be more proud of Coop.
The draft moment is special, but what makes this year so meaningful is the journey behind it. The consistency. The maturity. The daily work. The ability to keep stacking good days, stay available, keep improving, and rise when the moment demanded it.
Cooper’s season was not defined by one achievement. It was defined by a complete body of work.
He earned Rookie of the Year because of the way he impacted games.
He helped his team win a championship because of the way he competed.
He played every game because of the way he prepared.
And he heard his name called by Tampa Bay because he continued to prove that he belongs.
At Rypen, we talk a lot about building athletes who are prepared for the moment before the moment arrives. Cooper is a perfect example of that.
Proud is an understatement.
Congratulations, Coop. This is a massive step, but it is also just the beginning. Excited to keep watching your journey unfold.
The work continues.
