After a couple of days of speculation, Zach Sanford has officially signed with the Washington Capitals. Sanford joins Brooks Orpik and Paul Carey in the Caps system.
Sanford was set to be the only junior for the Eagles following numerous early departures - now BC with have 0 juniors on the 2016-17 squad. His loss will be felt by a young BC team - Sanford scored 39 points last season, including 13 goals. He led the Eagles in assists with 26 last season, and was third on the team in points. Sanford was also one of only 6 players to stay healthy during an injury-ridden season and he played in all 41 games.
