Undrafted 4th year defenseman Cody Corbett(84) takes a career high 18 assists and 21 points over to Orli Znojmo of EBEL for the remainder of the 2017/2018 season.
He put up those numbers on a strong Idaho Steelheads‘ squad in just 34 ECHL games before deciding to leave.
The 6’2″ 205 lbs. blue liner has always been a plus player in the lower league.
Originally signed by Colorado Avalanche to a 3-year entry level deal, he spent most of his time with affiliates but after a trade deadline transaction sent him to Washington Capitals, where he was assigned to South Carolina Stingrays.
He had an amazing run to the Kelly Cup Finals scoring a goal and 8 assists in 22 games with a +6 rating but was left unqualified heading into another campaign.
The 24-year old, twice 2012 & 2014 WHL Champion with Edmonton Oil Kings and one-time 2014 Memorial Cup winner should do very well in Austria and move himself up the hockey ladder overseas in short order.
