The Red Wings loaned Seider, their top pick in the 2019 draft (No. 6 overall), to Rogle BK near the start of the season, after the German League canceled its season due to the pandemic.
The 6-4, 207-pound Seider, displayed his wide array of skills, from his skating to his puck-moving to his physicality. He collected seven goals and 21 assists in 41 regular season games and added a goal and four assists in 13 playoff games.
