Hadfield back with Icemen

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Icemen, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s New York Rangers and the American Hockey League’s Hartford Wolf Pack, announced that the team has agreed to terms with defenseman Victor Hadfield for the 2022-23 season.   

Hadfield, 21, returns for another season in Jacksonville after logging six assists in 16 outings with the Icemen last season.  In addition, Hadfield added another assist in five playoff appearances. Hadfield was acquired by the Icemen in a trade with the South Carolina Stingrays this past March. He registered four points (2g-2a) in 16 appearances with South Carolina to bring his rookie point total to ten points in 32 games.   

Hadfield made four AHL appearances with the Manitoba Moose during the 2020-21 season. The Oakville, Ontario resident registered 26 points (8g-18a) in 46 games during his final season with the Ontario Hockey League’s Barrie Colts in 2019-20.    

Hadfield is the grandson of former NHL standout Vic Hadfield, who amassed 712 career points in 1,002 NHL games split between the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins.
