According to the Telegraph Herald<\/em><\/a>, defenseman Seamus Powell is leaving Boston College after one season to return to junior hockey with the USHL’s Dubuque Fighting Saints.<\/p>\n

During the 2022-23 season with the Eagles, Powell collected one goal and was minus-3 in 21 games.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a really good opportunity to play a lot more, get stronger and develop as a player,\u201d Powell said in the report. \u201cObviously, Ryan St. Louis did the same thing this last year (after leaving Northeastern) and had a ton of success. It\u2019ll give me a chance to play my game and gain confidence, and only good things will follow.<\/p>\n

\u201cI talked to Dubuque quite a bit after they drafted me two years ago and again after my first year at Boston College, and I always thought it was a really good option. And Coach (Greg) Brown said it would be a really good spot for me, so I\u2019m very grateful to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Powell joins a Dubuque team that went 32-24-5-1 last season, advancing to the second round of the Clark Cup playoffs.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited,\u201d Powell said. \u201cObviously, they had a pretty good run in the playoffs and they were always a tough team to play against when I was with the NTDP. It helps to have a lot of returners with that year under your belt. Having that experience is definitely helpful when you\u2019re trying to make a run in the playoffs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
