James Porter, Jr Player Profile:
If James Porter, Jr doesn't make the Chiefs he is eligible to return to the Vipers as a 20 yr old. If Porter, Jr returns along with the other three Viper goaltenders from last year, this would give the Vipers four 20 yr old goaltenders (Keegan Karki, Reilly Herbst, James Porter, Jr & Max Palaga)
