CINCINNATI, Ohio - The 2010 Kelly Cup Champion Cincinnati Cyclones, proud affiliate of the NHL's Florida Panthers and Nashville Predators, announced today that second-year forward Jake Hauswirth has been assigned to the club by the Florida Panthers.

Hauswirth's ECHL rights were dealt from the Washington Capitals to the Panthers on February 28 in exchange for former Florida defenseman Dennis Wideman.

Hauswirth will join the rest of the defending Kelly Cup Champions when they return to U.S. Bank Arena TOMORROW, March 2, as they welcome in the Reading Royals for the final time in 2010-11.
