The 5'10", 170-pound net-minder is 11-12-3-0 with 1 shutout, a 2.47 GAA, and .918 SV% in 28 games. He last suited up as a rival of the Swamp Rabbits with the Atlanta Gladiators in the 2023-24 campaign, and was a member of the Idaho Steelheads team that won the 2023 Brabham Cup as ECHL Regular Season Champions.
From Mississauga, Ontario, Boyko, 28, has 25 ECHL games to his credit since turning pro in 2022 with the Maine Mariners, Reading Royals, Idaho Steelheads, Worcester Railers, and Atlanta Gladiators, going 9-11-2-0 with 1 shutout, a 3.32 GAA and .896 SV%. He's spent the majority of his career in the SPHL with Macon and the Peoria Rivermen, registering a 21-37-7 record with a shutout, a 2.95 GAA, and .912 SV%.
