Examining 2017 NLL Rosters: Who’s New & What’s Missing?

New England Black Wolves

NEW ENGLAND BLACK WOLVES 2017 NLLForwards: Reilly O’Connor, Seth Oakes, Pat Saunders, Shawn Evans, Chad Culp, Kevin Crowley, Brett Bucktooth, Kevin Buchanan, Kyle Buchanan

Transition: Ryan Hotaling, Sheldon Burns, Jay Thorimbert

Defense: Scott Self, Matt Spanger, Stephen Hoar, Derek Suddons, Brett Manney, Zac Reid, Bill O’Brien
Goalies: Evan Kirk, Doug Jamieson

New Faces: Well, it looks like New England is rocking 21 guys, with rookie goaltender Dougie Jamieson left off the list, although I’m sure the Six Nations star will be running a door to start week one, so I added him myself. The only other rookie is another shining star from the Iroquois Nationals, Seth Oakes, a tough right-handed forward. From Buffalo, Jay Thorimbert is in to win draws and with him comes veteran forward Chad Culp to slightly refine the already experienced offensive group. Joining Culp will be another lefty, Reilly O’Connor from Calgary, to bring new life to Kevin Buchanan’s side.

The only defensive addition is veteran Scott Self, previously a staple with Rochester. Each of their pickups have proven themselves, I expect that these six guys will bring a lot of life to New England.
