Nick Strom (Jr., Rensselaer) is celebrated as the Defender of the Week for his commendable contributions on the blue line during the Engineers' away matchups against Boston College and Providence. Strom registered his first point of the season with an assist on Sutter Muzzatti's goal, kickstarting the second period against the Eagles. The blueliner rounded off the weekend with a favorable plus-minus rating of two and three blocked shots.
