KEARNEY, Neb. – Tri-City Storm head coach
and general manager Josh Hauge announced Monday that the team has
acquired a conditional draft pick from the Chicago Steel in exchange for
the rights to defenseman Bill Eiserman.
Eiserman, who played for the
Storm in 2010-11, has decided to leave UMass-Lowell, where he was in
his sophomore season and return to the USHL.
The defenseman played in 54 games with Tri-City two seasons ago, registering four assists and 62 penalty minutes.
With Lowell in 2011-12, Eiserman played in 29 games and also had four assists. So far in 2012-13, the West Newbury, Mass. native suited up for three games with the Riverhawks.

“It was a tough situation
for us,” Hauge said. “The league only allows us to have four 1992 birth
year players and with Brian Ward, Johan Mattsson, Tim Bonner and Trevor
Mingoia, we felt that all four of those players were very key components
to our hockey team and guys that are very valuable within the locker
room.”
