PORTLAND, Maine – Forward Nick Master has re-signed with the Maine Mariners for the 2019-20 season. The former UMass-Lowell River Hawk had a strong showing in Maine at the end of the 2018-19 season, registering seven points in eight games.
The Mariners are the ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League's New York Rangers and the American Hockey League's Hartford Wolf Pack.
Master enjoyed the best offensive season of his college career as a freshman in 2015-16, when he posted 24 points (8g-16a) in 39 games, finishing in the top 10 of all Hockey East freshmen. He was also named the team’s Rookie of the Year. Over his final three seasons at Lowell, Master remained a mainstay in the lineup, playing a total of 150 career college games. The River Hawks won the Hockey East championship in his sophomore season. On March 21, 2019 after finishing his senior year, Master signed with the Mariners.
The 24-year-old spent time in the United States Hockey League with the Cedar Rapids Roughriders and Tri City Storm prior to enrolling at Lowell. With the Storm in 2014-15, Master finished second on the team with 23 goals, and later averaged a point-per-game in Tri City’s playoff run.
