The IceDogs have also added a sixth player from their 2013 Priority Selection with the commitment of seventh round pick Cody Caron. A 17 year old centre, Caron was drafted from the Sault Ste. Marie North Stars where he put up 22 goals and 23 assists for 45 points in 31 games last season.
Finally, Sam Berg commits to the IceDogs after having been selected by the IceDogs in the 14th round of the 2012 OHL Priority Selection. Berg split last season between the Buffalo Jr. Sabres and Hamilton Jr. Red Wings of the OJHL where he accumulated 12 goals and 12 assists for 24 points, as well as 215 penalty minutes in 52 games.
The IceDogs would like to welcome Graham, Cody and Sam to the IceDogs organization and look forward to seeing them in game action at the IceDogs first home exhibition game on Monday at 2pm vs Erie!
