St. Louis Bandits goaltender Keith Kinkaid, an incoming freshman
at Union, has been named Most Valuable Player, Goaltender of the
Year and League nominee for the Dave Tyler USA
Hockey Junior Player of the Year, the North American Hockey League
(NAHL) announced today. Kinkaid was also named to the All-NAHL
Team.
In his first NAHL season, Kinkaid, from Farmingville, N.Y., helped the Bandits to their second straight regular-season championship, leading all NAHL goaltenders in wins (30), goals-against average (1.78), save percentage (.935) and shutouts (seven).
“In our eyes, Keith is as high-end as you can get at this
level,” said Bandits head coach Jeff Brown. “What
separates him from a lot of other players in junior hockey is his
preparation and his will to win. If we win 3-0, Keith is happy; if
we win 8-7, Keith is happy. All he wants to do is
win.”
