WICHITA, Kan. – The Wichita Thunder, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League's San Jose Sharks and American Hockey League's San Jose Barracuda, announced the signing of rookie defenseman Lleyton Moore for the 2023-24 season. 

Moore, 21, turns pro after playing the last four seasons in the Ontario Hockey League. He spent time with the Niagara IceDogs before being traded in 2019 to the Oshawa Generals. The native of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan played for the next two years for the Generals. 

This past season, he was named captain and compiled 24 points (4g-20a) in 27 games for Oshawa before being dealt to the Kitchener Rangers last December. Overall, he racked up 143 points (21g-122a) in 226 games in the OHL.

Moore was also a part of the 2018-19 U-17 World Junior Challenge, appearing in five games for Team Canada. 

Last season, he was invited to the Arizona Coyotes development camp and played in the 2022 Rookie Faceoff last September.
