Big big big 6’5″ 225 lbs. rookie defenseman Nik Pokulok(7) signs a one year deal with Fort Wayne Komets.
He started his pro career at the end of 2012/2013 skating 6 regular season and 23 ECHL Kelly Cup Playoff games with Stockton Thunder when he completed four years of college hockey at Clarkson University.
After scoring no points in his first short run of games he notched a pair of goals and an assist in the postseason.
Not exactly the style player to tear up the score sheet, the 23-year old is considered a solid stay at home d-man with shutdown capabilities.
He will probably have a great first campaign in the Midwest and with steady play on the blue line could very well see a couple game call-up to the AHL.
