Icemen add toughness with Wright

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Icemen, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Winnipeg Jets and American Hockey League’s Manitoba Moose, announced that the team has agreed to terms with defenseman Nick Wright for the 2019-20 season.

Wright joins the Icemen as the reigning penalty minutes leader for the Southern Professional Hockey League. In 43 games played with the Evansville Thunderbolts last season, Wright registered three points (1g-2a) and 161 penalty minutes. The 26-year-old has totaled three points and 224 penalty minutes in 55 career SPHL games with Evansville and the Pensacola Ice Flyers. 

From 2015-2018, Wright accrued 25 points (4g-21a) and 659 penalty minutes in 98 Federal Hockey League contests played with the Berlin River Drivers and Port Huron Prowlers. Wright led the FHL in penalty minutes in 2015-16 (223) and 2016-17 (383).  The New Boston, Michigan native won a Western States Hockey League championship in 2014 with the El Paso Rhinos.
