(Toledo, Ohio) The Toledo Storm of the ECHL announced today that the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League have recalled goaltender Logan Koopmans from Toledo, and assigned goaltender Drew MacIntyre to the Storm.
Logan, the ECHL Saver of the Week for the week of November 15th through the 21st, has appeared in 22 games with the Storm this season. In those contests, Koopmans has a record of 11-9-1 with a 2.95 goals against average and a .903 save percentage. Logan also has collected two shutouts this season. This is the second time this year that Koopmans has been recalled to the Griffins (January 8th).
