Steve Duda has found a new home.
The former Sea Dogs defenseman signed with the Ontario
Hockey League’s North Bay Battalion this week and played in the club’s season
opener this evening. Duda was a -3 in North Bay’s 5-2 loss in Kingston.
Saint John cut the 18-year American last week when
they announced their final roster. He had six assists in 52 games with the Sea
Dogs last season.
The Nugget newspaper notes that North Bay is currently
missing a few defensemen from their lineup.
Battalion head coach Stan Butler told BayToday.ca that Duda “is a big kid and he skates well.”
In other Friday night news…

- Ryan Tesink had three assists in the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada’s 4-2 win over the Sherbrooke Phoenix. He was named second star.
