Wolves Acquire Right Winger
The Sudbury Wolves are pleased to announce the acquisition of 19-year-old right winger MICHAEL KANTOR from the Soo Greyhounds.
In exchange, the Wolves sent 17-year-old defenceman CODY MINTZ, 18-year-old forward GREG JAMBROSICH and a 4th round draft pick in 2014 to the Greyhounds. The Wolves also received a conditional 15th round draft pick in 2013.
“We are very pleased to acquire MICHAEL KANTOR” notes Wolves’ GM Blaine Smith. “He is a big, strong right-winger that competes hard every shift. I feel he will be a great asset for us as we head into the toughest part of our schedule and drive toward the playoffs.”
KANTOR is a 6′, 200 lb right-shot forward. The native of Illinois has recorded 2 goals and 8 assists for 10 points and 76 minutes in penalties in 34 games this season. Last season, KANTOR recorded 11 goals and 9 assists for 20 points and 120 minutes in penalties. KANTOR was a free agent signing with the Saginaw Spirit in 2010.
“The Wolves organization would like to extend best wishes to two of the finest young men that have played for the Sudbury Wolves organization” notes Smith. “Greg and Cody have represented themselves and the Sudbury Wolves organization very well. We wish them both continued success and thank them for their personal contributions to the Sudbury Wolves and the community of Sudbury.”
The Sudbury Wolves will play their first of three consecutive 3-in-3 weekends this Friday night when the NIAGARA ICEDOGS come to town for a 7:35pm start.
