Huntsville Havoc News Release
HUNTSVILLE, AL - Huntsville Havoc head coach Glenn Detulleo announced today that defenseman Sam Cannata and forward Corey Fulton will both be in camp with the Havoc in October.
"We are excited to have Sammy onboard for another season," Detulleo said. "He was the heart and soul of our team last year. His passion for the game and willingness to sacrifice his body garnered a lot of respect from his teammates and fans."
Cannata (6-2, 205) played his rookie season in Huntsville last year and recorded seven assists in 56 games and had two assists in five playoff games. He also had 119 penalty minutes. The Bozeman, Montana native was named assistant captain after Detulleo was promoted to head coach.
"I'm excited to return to Huntsville," Cannata said. "The city, the fans, and the level of professionalism characterized by the Havoc organization makes it a great place to play. The team made big improvements at the end of the year and I want to continue with that all the way to a championship."
Fulton (6-2, 200) spent the last two seasons with the Danbury Whalers of the FHL where he scored three goals and recorded four assists in 63 games. The most impressive stat from his first two seasons of professional hockey is his 437 career penalty minutes. The Mississauga, Ontario native played five seasons of junior hockey where he scored 12 goals, recorded 15 assists and had 661 penalty minutes in 146 games.
"Corey is a player that Huntsville fans will love to see play," Havoc assistant coach Jordan Little said. "At this point in his career he has been regarded as a very tough player and has filled that role well. I hope for Corey to come to Huntsville and while making our team hard to play against, continues to develop other parts of his game."
The Havoc open the 2012-13 season on the road October 26 at Louisiana before opening home schedule on Breland Homes Ice on Saturday, November 10 against the Fayetteville FireAntz.
