YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – The
Youngstown Phantoms today released their initial protected player list
for the 2013-14 USHL season. The list is made up of 26 players – two
goaltenders, eight defensemen and 16 forwards – who will compete during
preseason training camp to earn a spot on the Phantoms’ final roster.
“We had to make some extremely hard decisions, but at the end of the day we’re excited about the list that we have,” head coach Anthony Noreen
said. “We think this core is going to help take our program to the next
level and it’s one that bodes very well for the future of the
Youngstown Phantoms.”
Twelve returning Phantoms veterans highlight the list, including goaltender Sean Romeo and forwards Nathan Walker, Kyle Connor, Alfred Larsson and Luke Stork. Both Youngstown’s first-round picks from Phases 1 and 2 of the 2013 USHL Draft – defenseman Steven Ruggiero and forward Blake Christensen respectively – are also among the players on the 26-man list.
