Elov Seger (June 6, 1940 – March 8, 1968) was a Canadian ice hockey defenseman who was an All-American[1] and helped Michigan Tech win its first National Championship in 1962.
Seger was a three-year player for the Huskies under head coach John MacInnes, helping the team reach the national championship game as a sophomore.
The last goal he scored for the Huskies tied the game in the WCHA championship and began a 4-goal barrage in the third period.
Seger eventually succumbed to the disease in March 1968 but he was not forgotten by Michigan Tech.
