Former Saint John Sea Dogs back-up goaltender Troy Passingham has made the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League.Passingham, who played for the Sea Dogs in 2007-08 and the start of the 2008-09, was the third string goalie. The Ontario native was expected to be the back-up last season but was beat out by Karell St-Laurent.
Passingham told the Windsor Star that he went to Sarnia Sting rookie camp but opted to join the Spits after Sarnia did not offer a contract.
"They told me to be ready," Passingham told the Windsor Star about the possibility of playing in net when the Spits raise the Memorial Cup banner. The Spitfires number one goalie Josh Unice is at pro-camp. Windsor opens the OHL season Thursday against Plymouth.
