BOISE, ID – Head coach Hardy Sauter announced on Monday
that former Union defenseman Brendan Milnamow has signed with the
Idaho Steelheads for the 2010-11 season.
Milnamow, 24, was a member of ECHL’s National Conference
All-Star team last season after a solid rookie campaign for the
Steelheads. The Wilton, CT, product finished the regular season
with three goals and 25 assists in 72 games – the only
Steelhead player to appear in each of the team’s games.
The trend continued in the playoffs, where he appeared in each of
Idaho’s 15 playoff games as the Steelheads reached the
ECHL’s Kelly Cup finals. Factoring in his ECHL All Star Game
appearance, Milnamow skated in all 88 games possible during the
2009-10 season.
For his efforts, Milnamow was voted the Steelheads’ US Army
Ironman of the Year by his teammates.
He made his professional debut with Idaho in March of 2009,
playing five games with the Steelheads after concluding his college
career at Union.
