Curry College Colonels‘ graduate goalie Reid Cooper(33) apparently gained notice from a bit of an unlikely source, as he will join Washington Capitals on an ato in a back-up mode for their last game of the regular season.
The 6’2″ 190 lbs. net minder posted a 20-6-1 record in 2022/2023 with a 1.92 GAA and .935 SV% in 27 D3 games with 3 shutouts to earn the division CCC Goaltender Of The Year for his outstanding work to win the conference and move on to the final 8.
With this nod, it will be interesting to see where the 25-year old from Corman Park, SK and former 3-year Robert Morris University Colonials will go.
Once in fully pro status, he bounced around through the leagues, but when he arrived at Port Huron Prowlers seemed to find his game once again.
In 39 games, he posted a 23-9 record with a 2.28 GAA and .930 SV%, which is easily good enough to earn a starter invite for 2026/2027.
