GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - The Grand Rapids Griffins on Wednesday assigned defenseman Jacob Truscott to the ECHL's Toledo Walleye.
Truscott made his professional debut with Grand Rapids on Oct. 18 against the Manitoba Moose and later bagged his first pro point with an assist on Oct. 28 at Iowa. Through two games as a pro, the Port Huron, Michigan, native has one assist, zero penalty minutes and an even plus-minus rating. Truscott was the 144th overall pick by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.
Prior to turning pro, Truscott spent five seasons at the University of Michigan and totaled a combined 70 points (12-58-70), 119 penalty minutes and a plus-44 rating in 166 career games. The 23-year-old became a two-time Big Ten champion as a Wolverine (2021-22, 2022-23) and served as a two-time captain from 2023-25, becoming just the ninth multi-year captain at the university and the first since former Griffin Luke Glendening (2010-12). As a fifth-year senior in 2024-25, Truscott earned a spot on the Big Ten Honorable Mention All-Star Team with 16 points (3-13-16) in 36 appearances. At the international level, Truscott competed for Team USA at the 2022 World Junior Championship and recorded a plus-three rating in five games. He also notched one assist and four penalty minutes in five games with Team USA at the 2019 U17 World Hockey Challenge.
