Walleye re-sign Boeing, add Sandler

TOLEDO, OH – The Toledo Walleye have added two more forwards with Brett Boeing and Luke Sandler agreeing to terms with the Walleye for the 2020-21 season.

Boeing played in 40 games during his rookie season with Toledo, racking up nine goals and 11 assists while playing as a plus-11.

Prior to turning pro, the 5’8”, 187-pound forward completed his college career at UMass-Amherst. His efforts helped the Minutemen to the Hockey East Regular Season Championships.

Walleye Head Coach Dan Watson said he expects Boeing to add a lot to the front line because of his versatility.

“He can play multiple forward positions and that is a bonus,” Watson said. “Brett had a very good rookie season. He creates energy with the way he plays and also contributed secondary scoring when needed. We’re excited to continue Brett’s development this season.”

Sandler joins the Walleye after playing the past two seasons with the Kalamazoo Wings, recording 37 points (20 goals, 17 assists) in 109 games, while adding 231 penalty minutes. The sixth-year pro spent the entire 2017-18 season with the Atlanta Gladiators, recording 22 points (10 goals, 12 assists) in 65 games, while adding 190 penalty minutes.

“We have seen Luke become a good power forward in our league with Kalamazoo the past couple seasons,” Watson said about Sandler. “He’s a player who can play up and down your lineup, while providing energy and physicality. We look forward to seeing him compete in a Walleye uniform.”
