“Ethan has been great for us this year,” said Bruins head coach Steve Howard. “He had a tough season of injuries last year and we couldn’t be more excited to see him earn this commitment to Canisius. I think he’s had a chip on his shoulder to prove to himself and others that he is one of the top goalies in the league and our staff is sure glad we have him back this season. Canisius is getting an outstanding goalie and a great person.”

Canisius College is a Private Jesuit college located in Buffalo, New York. The Golden Griffins compete at the NCAA Division I level and are members of Atlantic Hockey. Last season, the Golden Griffins finished the year with a record of 16-16-3 and reached the Quarterfinals of the Atlantic Hockey Tournament.
