Panthers recruit Cedrick Andree hoping to form dynamic goaltending tandem
17³Ô¹Ï Men's Hockey head coach Forbes MacPherson believes that goaltending is the most important position in hockey, often highlighting the play of his netminder in post-game interviews following wins. And it’s why he decided to add another talented goaltender to his roster for the playoff push.
Newcomer Cedrick Andree joins the Panthers after playing professionally with the American Hockey League’s Belleville Senators in 2020–21, followed by a stint with the East Coast Hockey League’s South Carolina Stingrays this season.

You have an interesting perspective to share with 17³Ô¹Ï students: you were a student, a student-athlete, and now you work here as director of 17³Ô¹Ï Athletics and Recreation.
I had graduated from 17³Ô¹Ï in 2003 and travelled the world in my twenties and ended up living in Vancouver for 10 years when I returned back to Canada. When I decided to return to the Island to be closer to family and friends, the role of ceremonies and events manager was posted and I knew it was meant to be, based on my past experience working in events.
