WORCESTER, Mass. – The Worcester Railers Hockey Club, ECHL affiliate of the New York Islanders, announced that the club has signed defenseman Willie Raskob for the 2017-18 season.
Raskob joins the Railers fresh off a 2016-17 NCAA NCHC championship run with the University of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs. He spent four seasons with UMD (2013-17) playing in 148 games for the Bulldogs and recorded 59 points (10g-49a), 124 penalty minutes and a +20 rating.
