D’Amigo Awarded the Charles Chalkin Memorial Trophy
The Kitchener Rangers Hockey Club have announced that Jerry D’Amigo is the recipient of the Charles Chalkin Memorial Trophy as the team’s best performer in the playoffs.
Originally drafted by Kitchener in the 12th round of the 2007 OHL Draft, D’Amigo chose to remain in the US National Team Development Program and eventually played for Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in the Eastern College Athletic Conference. In his first and only year with RPI he won rookie of the year with 35 points in 35 games, stats that caught the eye of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Leafs drafted Jerry in the 6th round of the 2009 NHL Draft and signed him over the summer and sent him to the AHL in late September. With the Marlies, he scored 5 goals and 9 assists in 41 games before being loaned to Kitchener.
In 21 regular season games wearing Rangers Blue, Jerry scored 12 goals and 16 assists. His first goal came in his very first game with Kitchener. In seven playoff games, D’Amigo accumulated six goals and three assists for nine points. CLICK TO READ MORE
