On Monday, Mar. 18, the Florida Panthers announced that the club had reached an agreement with defenseman Brady Keeper on a two-year, entry-level contract, worth $925K annually.
Keeper, who’s currently 22 years of age, played his hockey at the University of the Maine (NCAA). In his first season with the Black Bears (2017-18), Keeper recorded a strong offensive slashline of 6G, 16A, for 22 points in 37 games.
The following season (this year), he matched that exact production in one less game played. Keeper is heavily known for his involvement in the offensive end, serving like an additional forward while on the ice.
