Roster Needs
These needs drive the Bowdoin fit score. Right-shot defense is the single biggest hole; goaltending is the lowest need on the roster and every goalie's fit score reflects it.

Bowdoin loses three defensemen after 2025-26 (Lyons, Sullivan, Wojciechowski) and four more are seniors in 2026-27. Confirmed right-shot depth on the current roster is thin — Larocque is the clear one. Right-shot D is the single biggest hole.

Five forwards graduate after 2025-26 (Cerepak, Dinges, Neal, Shipper, Wright). Centers specifically.

Jacob Osborne led the NESCAC at .941 SV% as a sophomore, with Fillion and Dakers behind him. Goaltending is the LOWEST need on the roster — factor this into every goalie's fit score. Freshman Anthony Alessi (Buffalo Jr. Sabres, OJHL) joins the freshman class in goal.
