Colorado Eagles News Release


WINDSOR, Colo. - The Colorado Eagles announced today that they have completed a trade with the Laredo Bucks, acquiring goaltender Kyle Gajewski (pronounced: guh-jew-ski) in exchange for future considerations. Gajewski will add depth in net with the recent AHL call-up of Andrew Penner.

"We are being proactive in acquiring another quality player at a position where you can never have enough depth," said Eagles President and General Manager Chris Stewart. "We believe Kyle is a very good goalie and, in fact, this is not the first time we've had interest in him. We were in discussions over the summer with his agent and we're happy to finally welcome him to Northern Colorado."

In four seasons (2004-05 thru 2007-08) with the Sault Saint Marie Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League, Gajewski played in 214 games, increasing his win total each year. In all, he went 114-71-21 with 12 shutouts, a goals-against average of 2.72 and a save percentage of.906. The London, Ontario native was named an All-Star in his final season in the league.

The second-year pro comes to the Eagles with a career record of 17-16-4, a goals-against average of 3.71 and a save percentage of.884. He has played in 13 games this season for Laredo, going 5-5-2 with the team's only shutout, a 3.96 GAA and a.883 SV%.
