James Hagens is widely regarded as one of the premier prospects of his generation. Drafted 7th overall by the Boston Bruins in the 2025 NHL Draft, Hagens is a standout forward at Boston College and a product of USA Hockey’s National Team Development Program. He was recently named to the U.S. roster for the IIHF World Junior Championship, entering the tournament as one of its most anticipated players. His partnership with Titan BattleGear comes at a pivotal moment as he competes on amateur hockey’s biggest stage.

The partnership pairs Titan BattleGear’s mission to elevate player safety without compromising performance and Hagens’ reputation as a fast, intelligent, and fearless competitor. As part of the agreement, Hagens will wear Titan BattleGear's protective baselayer on the ice and collaborate with the brand on product innovation, and athlete-led education around safety and performance.
