When the compressor seizes like that, it is possible that it dumped some metal bits into the system that could cause problems. It is standard practice to flush out the condenser and hoses when replacing a seized-up compressor, and to replace the receiver/dryer which is located down stream on the high side hose going to the evaporator. Replace any o-rings in joints or connectors that are taken apart. Evacuate the system using a vacuum pump and charge the system by weight. Do these things and you should be fine.
