Colorado Eagles News Release
LOVELAND, Colo. - The Colorado Eagles of the ECHL announced today that they've signed Morgan Cey as an emergency goaltender to back-up Kyle Jones while Andrew Penner is on the IR. Cey spent the 2008-09 season with the Eagles as Penner's back-up, and is the older brother of current Eagles forward Patrick Cey. The netminder has appeared in 121 career games in the ECHL with two other teams (Johnstown Chiefs & Mississippi Sea Wolves).
In 25 games with the Eagles in 2008-09 (while they were in the CHL), Cey posted a record of 15-9-1, with a 3.40 GAA & a .897 SV%. He was the winning goalie of record in the 2009 CHL All-Star game that saw the host Eagles defeat a team made of all-stars from the rest of the league, 8-4.
Since retiring, Cey has made Northern Colorado his family's home. His wife is a teacher at a local school and he has remained involved in the sport of hockey as a coach and goaltending coordinator at the NoCo Ice Center.
