The Acadia Axemen hockey program is proud to welcome Brendan Sellan to the program this fall.
Hailing from Bolton, Ont., Sellan spent four years in the OHL with the Erie Otters, and served as the teams’ Co-Captain this past season. In 193 regular season games, the left-winger recorded 82 points, including a career high 20 goals and 40 points in 66 games in 2021-22. The OHL did not play games in 2020-21 due to the pandemic.
“What made me choose Acadia is the rich history the school and hockey program has. As well as the small town feel of the school coming from a small town myself. Another big thing for me was the number of players coming out of Acadia and moving on to the pro ranks, coming here will help me advance my hockey and school career immensely”, said Sellan.
Axemen head coach Darren Burns sees Sellan as a key addition to the team. “Brendan is a player who can check a lot of boxes for a coach. He plays a high tempo game, with a very strong work ethic and exudes great leadership qualities. He is a player who has shown he can play a strong defensive game, but can create offence as well, because of his intelligence level. These are all characteristics needed to succeed in our league. His desire and accountability will make him a great addition to our program”, said Burns.
Sellan is excited about the opportunity to play in front of the hometown Axemen crowd. “Fans can expect a guy that comes in every night ready to do whatever it takes to win, no matter what it is. I am a 200-foot player that prides myself in playing in the defensive zone just as much as the offensive zone. I think I have a good hockey IQ and can see the ice well, making plays when needed”, added Sellan.
