DU Lands Big Fish
Seabrook To Join Pioneers
.
According to Heisenberg, the top rated defenseman in British Columbia will come to DU in 2007. In January, Hockey Night In Canada in the "After Hours" segment, interviewed, Burbaby Express (BCHL) defenseman Keith Seabrook, who expressed interest in attending Denver. He said a DU coach had visited him that weekend.
.
Seabrook's brother Brent went the WHL route and now plays in the NHL for the Chicago Blackhawks.
.
Last season Keith was named Burbaby's Rookie of the Year. He's listed at 5'11 185 lbs. According to Heisenberg, he is the 4th best college prospect in British Columbia, and was the top BCHL prospect not yet recruited. He puts up similiar goals to assist ratio as DU defenseman Matt Carle.
.
The recruiting for DU in the next two years has been really ratcheted up in Canada. Obviously the two NC's has paid some big dividends up North. When Seabrook arrives in Denver he will join fellow BC recruits Kyle Ostrow ('07), Cody Brookwell ('06) and goaltender Marc Cheverie ('07). This would give DU three of the top ten college recruits from British Columbia, the top BC Goaltender and two of the top two six college recruits from Alberta (Matt Glasser '06 & Jesse Martin '07).

The recruiting for '06 and '07 has been outstanding. Gwoz and his staff have really laded some great prospects to hopefully keep a nice run going.
