Beck added to Super Series roster
The Ontario Hockey League announced today that Storm forward Taylor Beck has been added to the roster for Team OHL to compete in the 2009 SUBWAY® Super Series.
Currently 6th in the OHL in scoring with 32 points, Beck was surprisingly left off the Team OHL roster when it was announced earlier this month. The Storm’s leading scorer, Beck was a 3rd round pick of the Nashville Predators last summer.
Beck replaces Storm teammate Michael Latta who is unable to participate due to injury.
Team QMJHL defeated Team Russia in game one of the series 3-1 Monday night in Drummondville, QC, with Gabriel Bourque of the Baie-Comeau Drakkar named QMJHL Player of the Game.
