13th year center Cory Conacher(10) initially played a couple of games for Belleville Senators, but that was short lived and is likely going to be more comfortable joining Charlotte Checkers for the remainder of 2023.
Undrafted, he was initially signed to a minor league deal and won the fantasy run 2012 Calder Cup for Norfolk Admirals.
The 5’8″ 185 lbs. forward was next signed for a pair of seasons on a 2-way deal with Tampa Bay Lightning, but traded midway through his debut campaign to Ottawa Senators.
They lost him in the 2nd year of his term to Buffalo Sabres, who claimed him off waivers.
He would next sign the 1st of 4 1-way NHL contracts with New York Islanders, but toiled more time in the minors.
The Burlington, ON native would leave for the NL, hooking up with SC Bern, striking for more than point-per-game numbers en route to a 2016 Championship.
He would return on nice deals for the next few runs with the Lightning before again returning to Switzerland to win more titles.
The 33-year old former Canisius College Golden Griffins standout is likely just smiling, still playing hockey.
In 15 games he grabs 4 goals and 5 assists with a +3 rating, then adds another 3 points in 7 playoff matchups.
For 2023/2024, he moves on in the league to sign with Chicago Wolves.
