Sellar, could turn out being the team Captain, and I’m sure he would wear that letter with pride. He recorded 39 points (18g, 21a) in 70 games with the Royals in 2022-23. Sellar also played in 11 Kelly Cup Playoff games, to which he tallied one goal and two assists for a total of three points.
I had a good interview with Sellar this past Summer:
This season will be a big one for Millman, as he becomes an RFA at the conclusion of the season with the Flyers. If he does not grow into the Lehigh Valley Phantoms lineup, then his time with organization could be in limbo.
