Hamilton Bulldogs News Release
The Hamilton Bulldogs announced today they have added goaltender Yann Danis, forward Brent Robinson and defenceman Mark Flood. Danis was recently signed to a contract with the Montreal Canadiens, while Robinson and Flood have each signed Amateur Try-Out contracts (A.T.O.), respectively with the Bulldogs.
DANIS, a 6'0, 195 pound goaltender from Lafontaine, Quebec, played with the Brown University Bears of the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) for the last four seasons. In 2003-04, the 22-year-old played in 30 of Brown's 31 games, posting a 15-11-4 record with a 1.81 GAA and a .942 save percentage. Danis is among the 10 finalists for the Hobey Baker Award (given annually to the top college player) and was named the ECAC's Player of the Year. He also won the Ken Dryden Award, given to the ECAC's Best Goaltender, marking the first time a goalie has won both awards in the same year.
ROBINSON, a 23-year-old native of Pointe-Claire, Quebec, was a teammate of Danis' the past four seasons at Brown University. During the 2003-04 season, the 6'1, 195-pound forward led Brown in scoring with 31 points (13-18-31), along with 10 penalty minutes in 31 games played. In 120 career games at Brown University, Robinson recorded 99 points (38-61-99).
FLOOD, a 6'1 180 pound-defenceman from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, played this past season with the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey League. In 68 games played, the 19-year-old Flood led all Peterborough defencemen in scoring with 44 points (15-29-44) and added 30 penalty minutes. Flood has played in 193 games in the past three seasons with Peterborough, earning 78 points (21-57-78) and 69 penalty minutes. Flood was the Montreal Canadiens 7th pick, 188th overall in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft.
