Isles prospect Anders Lee and Notre Dame headed to Frozen Four

 Islanders prospect Anders Lee and his Notre Dame Fighting Irish Men's hockey team are headed to the Frozen Four after last night's 2-1 road victory over University of New Hampshire.

One night prior, Lee tallied twice--including the game-winner--for a 4-3 win over Stephane Da Costa and Merrimack University to advance to the NCAA Northeast Regional Final.

Lee, a 6-3, 218-pound centerman, is looking to be a steal for the Islanders. Although selected late in the the 2009 draft (6th round, 152nd overall) Lee has blossomed into a top collegiate player. The 20 year-old Edina, MN native has 24 goals and 20 assists in 43 games during his freshman season with Notre Dame.

Notre Dame will face Minnesota-Duluth April 7 in the Frozen Four.
