Remember Stephan Seeger, the Brunswick School senior captain who left the Greenwich, Conn. prep school last year during the Christmas break for the opportunity to play major junior for the Moncton Wildcats (QMJHL), a team that had drafted him in the 10th round the summer before?

Well, he finished the season with Moncton, scoring 11 points in 25 games. In August, he was released. This fall, Seeger played one game for the Oshawa Generals (OHL), and was subsequently released. He then moved on to the USHL, joining Des Moines in late November. They released him early last month. A week later, on Jan. 10, the Merritt Centennials (BCHL) added him at the trade/roster deadline. He has a 3-2-5 line in 10 games with Merritt and, of course, his NCAA eligibility is burned. 

A cautionary tale, for sure.

In sum, since leaving Brunswick a little over 13 months ago, Seeger has been released by three teams, and is now on his fourth. He will turn 19 next week.

Boyle's Off-ice Training will be cancelled tonight due to the snow storm and driving conditions. 

As of 7:00AM today all games are still on. If there are any changes we will notify you ASAP. Please drive safe

The Vipers captured another championship this past weekend by winning the EHF U18 league championship. The Vipers rolled through the semi-finals with an 11-5 victory and had trick from Matignon’s leading goal scorer John Andrews. In the finals, they faced a “New & Improved” Bulldogs team that came out extremely aggressive and scored four early goals taking advantage of the Vipers slow start. After a mid-game time-out and some individual player self-reflection, the Vipers settled in one shift at a time chipping away the old fashion way. Having the Bulldogs take a 4 minute penalty, the Vipers immediately scored two goals in one shift to jump right back into the game. Having the game shift in a positive direction, the Vipers continued the aggressive fore-check by forcing defensive zone turnovers and again capitalized on the power play with a Ryan Spagnoli snipe from the top of the slot. With nothing to lose the Matignon trio of Andrews, McPherson, Petrie took matters into their own hands. On a neutral zone transition McPherson carried the play on a three on two and caught the goalie sleeping with an absolute blast from the blue line to tie the game and force the overtime.

With the Vipers having experience with over-time from the previous State championship weekend they remained calm and incorporated a four forward and one defense offensive attack system in play early to put the Dogs back on their heels. With all pucks to the net and recognizing the many rebounds being left on the door step, McPherson once again chose to take ownership and “seize the moment” by burying a loose puck rebound to win the EHF Championship!

“These young men are a special group and it’s a true honor to be a part of their continued development, they have worked extremely hard, paid their dues on and off the ice and have had to deal with much adversity this past season. While doing so, they never lost focus and their true character was certainly tested and revealed, we couldn’t be any prouder for them, they deserve this Championship”… Coach Somerville
