Julie Damron, the team's general manager, said Logan was a strong part of the team and a good young man.
"He was a great athlete; he gave 100 percent on the ice," she said. "When he was out there, he worked very hard. He was a great student. He was a great friend. The guys on the team all liked him. He added such a great spirit to the team."
Ostebo said the team has been shaken by Logan's death.
"The mood's pretty somber, and we're just thinking about Jaxon and his family," he said. "At the hospital, a lot of his friends were there, and we all just kind of mourned for the next few hours."
The team also came together on Saturday, and counselors from BYU were available.
"In our team meeting, our coach just kind of made sure we were all on the same page, told us all the information from the doctor," Ostebo said. "People kind of just said what they wanted to say, and we just kind of remembered some things that he did. . . . So there's a lot of support there for everybody."
Beaudry canceled the remaining period of the game Friday, as well as a second game with Northern Colorado Saturday night.
Damron said the Northern Colorado players didn't want to play either. Ostebo said he thinks the team will try to play its next game, set for Friday.
"We think that Jaxon would want us to keep playing . . . so we're going to try to get back as soon as things are taken care of," he said. "It's just kind of a tough time. We'll get through it, though, the team's pretty strong. We just wish the best for Jaxon's family and his mother and father."
