Andrew Seaman, F – Union College (DI, ECAC) – Winnetka, IL
Interesting to see only one first-year player coming directly from prep school, with nearly all coming from at least a year of junior hockey (if I've captured them all correctly). That recruiting would've been done before Sinclair's departure was announced, presumably - so wonder if there's anything to read into it, in terms of players who are Sinclair's choices, what level of quality they bring, etc. Junior hockey isn't my area of expertise, welcome thoughts from others on what level of quality they're bringing.
Seaman - a junior transfer from Union -
went into the portal a couple days after Sinclair stepped down. He played regularly his freshman year, only once his sophomore year.
Middlebury also announced
Jack Fitzgerald is joining as assistant coach. He spent four years at Amherst as an assistant coach and was a four year player and senior-year Captain for Amherst.
As
tjoneslo said, going to be an interesting one for the Panthers. At last, change at the top and perhaps an opportunity to rebuild some respectability let alone contend for titles. But a long road ahead.
