Toledo, OH - Forward Michael Leone (LEE-ow-nee) has agreed to terms with the Toledo Walleye for the 2015-16 season.

In 34 regular season contests with Toledo during the 2014-15 season, Leone picked up three goals, eight assists and 35 penalty minutes to go along with a plus five rating. The Detroit, Michigan native also appeared in four games during the Walleye playoff run to the Eastern Conference Finals. The 5'11" forward appeared in three contests in 2012-13 season with Kalamazoo, collecting an assist.

"Mike is an ultimate team guy", said Head Coach Derek Lalonde. "He literally took a puck in the face for his team in the playoffs. He was a priority for us to resign."

Leone spent the 2013-14 season playing in France for Villard-de-Lans where he had 11 points (7G, 4A) and 56 penalty minutes in 26 games. He spent the previous three years at Western Michigan University. The 27-year-old forward posted 39 points (14G, 25A) in 81 games with the Broncos.
