SEABROOK TRADED TO FLAMES


This may explain why Keith Seabrook isn't taking part in Washington's prospects camp this week. He wasn't in their future plans. The former Express 2nd round draft pick was traded by Washington to the Calgary Flames for future considerations.

Seabrook played 2 seasons with the Express from 04-06. He was the team's rookie of the year in 04-05. The next season he was a BCHL all star en route to helping the Express win the Royal Bank Cup in 2006. In the clinching 6-0 win in game 6 of the Doyle Cup vs. Fort McMurray, Seabrook scored a hat-trick to punch the Express ticket to the Royal Bank Cup.

In 118 games in Express colors, Seabrook put up 18 goals, 44 assists for 62 points.

Then he was off to play at the University of Denver for one season. He then joined the WHL's Calgary Hitmen where he played the last 2 seasons.

This past season he put up 15 goals and 40 assists for 55 points in 64 games. He helped lead Calgary to the best record in the WHL where they eventually fell to the Kelowna Rockets in 6 games in the WHL final.

Seabrook will take part in Calgary's development camp this week. As will former Express Spencer Bennett who was drafted by Calgary this past June.

Might I add in that game he had the hat-trick. The 3rd goal was a ricochet off the boards on a shoot in. It was a fluke!

Just as long as they go in it's all that matters.
