Undrafted 2nd year center/right wing Ian Slater(12) was signed to a contract with Adirondack Phantoms for his rookie season.
He started his pro career in the ECHL with affiliate Trenton Titans, where in 31 games he scored 7 goals and 3 assists with a +9 rating.
The 6′ 198 lbs. forward was recalled to the AHL right after the beginning of the year and would play out the regular season schedule with the team. He notched an assist and was a -9 in mostly limited fourth line use.
The 25-year old was never exactly a point scoring machine in college play at Western Michigan University but was team captain for his last couple of years and won a championship. He also provide lots of energy on the ice whenever he’s out there.
For his sophomore campaign he has decided to ink a deal with Orlando Solar Bears, the team just an hour up the road from his hometown.
He will likely be kept an eye on for a call-up and maybe even attend an AHL training camp to start.
