Parker inks deal with Nailers

WHEELING, W.Va. - The Wheeling Nailers announced the team has signed forward Remy Parker to a contract for the 2026-27 season.

Parker, 28, will be entering his third full ECHL season and fourth overall, and the Nailers will be his third team. He first entered the league late in the 2023-24 season, when he joined the Cincinnati Cyclones following the completion of his college hockey career. Parker found success immediately, as he scored in his professional debut at Toledo, and ended up lighting the lamp three times in his first five games. In 2024-25, Parker played in 68 of 72 games for the Cyclones and finished with 18 points (10g-8a). Parker split this past season between Cincinnati and the Greenville Swamp Rabbits and finished the campaign with three goals, bringing his ECHL totals to 27 points (17g-10a) in 119 career games.

Prior to turning pro, the Montclair, New Jersey native played four years of college hockey, as he attended the University of Maine, Utica University, and Long Island University. Parker was Utica's leading goal scorer during his junior season, when he found the back of the net 23 times in 29 games. He then finished third in goals for Long Island as a senior, as he tallied 13 in 36 matches.
