In this era now do we still count him and any other player as former UND to be the NHL on the wall in the team area at the Ralph?

I do not believe any player has as of yet transferred FROM UND and then gone on to appear in an NHL game, Sasha Boisvert appears to be a first in this programs history.

The CHN almanac lists players such as Jason Blake and Isaac Howard with a notation of both teams played for in their list of former NCAA players to have appeared in the NHL.   

Trivia time... there's only been in the history of the NCAA about 15 or so players to have done this... the list will grow exponentially into the future but rather a rare feat as of now.

So, I would say Boisvert would be on the growing list of the UND program's claim of having, at this time, the second most former players to have played in the NHL (UMtc still has the most)

Sasha may be on a much smaller list, or potentially, the only player in NCAA history to have reached the NHL after playing for 2 programs and have been rolled by a couple of frat boys

With TJ I haven't seen Northeastern claim anything about him once he left, but Arizona State has posted about TJ signing like UND did.

So, I would say Boisvert would be on the growing list of the UND program's claim of having, at this time, the "EDIT 3rd most" former players to have played in the NHL (UMtc still has the most, and Michigan has passed UND as well in the past 5 years, and BU is right on the heels)

Does Omaha claim Seeler?

Boisvert finished the year with us, we should half-heartedly claim him. Hope for his sake he grows up and doesn't waste the gift he's got.
