Undrafted 4th year defenseman Charlie Dodero(91) returns for a third run to the team he had his best point-production success with as a rookie, Idaho Steelheads.
He scored a career high 4 goals and 15 assists for 19 points in 44 ECHL games.
The fairly large 6’2″ 209 lbs. is mostly thought of as a stay-at-home shutdown style d-man and only reached and eclipsed the 20 assists mark in the final years of OHL as assistant captain for Sudbury Wolves.
He spent 2015/2016 with Greenville Swamp Rabbits, on a trade from Idaho, which returned him to where he started his pro career in 2013/2014.
In his sophomore campaign the blue liner was loaned just before the halfway mark to Syracuse Crunch on a pto, but was offered an AHL contract to stay a couple months later.
He would score one goal and two assists with a +7 rating, setting himself up for another 10 games in the higher league last year.
The soon-to-be 25-year old will likely get more face time on recall again in the new calendar but may even have another breakout on the stat sheet back in familiar territory.
