Undrafted rookie defenseman Jared Brandt(16) takes 4 years at Niagara University Purple Eagles to a 1st pro contract with Reading Royals for 2021/2022.
The 1-year Miami University (Ohio) Redhawks‘ transfer was pretty much good for 10 points per frame.
He skated three seasons of juniors for Minot Minotauros and sort of popped his scoring lid as captain with 5 goals and 22 assists with a +17 rating in 59 NAHL games.
The 6′ 196 lbs., 25-year old blue liner will likely be able to connect for points in the ECHL.
He wound up with 1 goal and 6 assists with a +4 rating before a trade sent him to Worcester Railers for the remainder of the frame and he would end up with another helper in 9 contests.
His performance was good enough to want to have him around for a full season in central MA.
