Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I a ia e tākaro ana mō te kapa haka hukapapa tāne, i whakataetae hoki a Suess i runga i to rātau kapa pehipi. I awhina ia i a raatau ki te tohu mo te whakataetae kawanatanga o te tau 2010, engari i whati i tana waewae i tana tau tuarua. I te Pipiri 2012, i tae atu a Suess ki te puni whakamatautau mo te Sioux Falls Stampede o te United States Hockey League (USHL). Whai muri i tana tohu mo te kapa, i arahi ia i te Stampede me nga whaainga 32 me nga awhina 28 i roto i nga keemu 63 o te waa auau. I tana wa tuarua (me te whakamutunga) me te Stampede, i tohua a Suess hei rangatira tuarua mo te Team USA i te 2013 World Junior A Challenge, hei awhina i a raatau ki te wikitoria i te mētara koura. I tana hokinga mai i te whakataetae, i hainatia e Suess tetahi reta mo te hiahia ki te haere ki te Whare Wananga o Minnesota State, Mankato, he kura NCAA Division I. I te waenganui o te wa, i tuhia e ia nga whaainga 16 me nga awhina 25 i roto i nga keemu 41 a i tohua ia mo te USHL Western Conference All-Star Team Tuarua. Na tona awhina, i mutu te Stampede i te tuawha o te Huihuinga ki te Hauauru ka tohu mo te USHL playoffs i mua i te horo e te Waterloo Black Hawks. I mua i tana urunga atu ki te Minnesota State Mavericks, i tohua a Suess ki te 129 o te katoa e te Winnipeg Jets i te tau 2000
