Moritz Seider is a 6’4, 207-pound defensive prospect who hails from Zell (Mosel), Germany. He loves using his body to break up plays and punish opposing attackers but has more than just a physical style of game in his skill set. The German blue-liner can also chip in on offense when needed, finding solid success in international and Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL).
Seider netted six points (2 Goals, 4 Assists) in 29 games with Adler Mannheim in DEL, which earned him the league’s Rookie of the Year award. These numbers may not seem overly impressive, but it’s worth noting that he’s 18 and already playing in Germany’s top hockey league amongst men.
