The Genting Casino Coventry Blaze are pleased to confirm the signing of American forward Nick Seitz for the 2024/25 Elite League season.

Seitz, 24, will turn professional with the Blaze after graduating from Princeton University where he iced 114 times with 49 points (17 goals, 32 assists).

In his senior year, Seitz was named to the NCAA All-Ivy Academic Team and the NCAA All-Ivy League Second Team.

During his time in Princeton, Seitz was also nominated to the ECAC All-Academic Team three times and ECAC All-Academic Commissioner’s List in 2021/22.

6’2” Seitz has also spent two seasons in the NAHL, where he had 96 points (37 goals, 59 assists) in 99 regular season and playoff games with the New Jersey Titans and Corpus Christi Ice Rays.

Head Coach Kevin Moore said, “Nick is a dynamic skater who has the ability to accelerate through the neutral zone in transition. He has a good shot and can make deceptive plays from shooting positions. We are extremely excited to have Nick on board.”
