Pensacola, Fla. - The Ice Flyers and Defenseman Nick Leitner have agreed to terms for the 2023-24 season.

Leitner, the Bemidji, Minnesota native re-signs with the team after playing 22 games for the Ice Flyers last season before his season was cut short due to injury. In those 22 games, Leitner netted 5 goals and assisted on 5.

When asked about why he chose to return, Leitner said, "This is an organization that definitely works hard to promote the game of hockey in a fun and entertaining way, and I wanted to continue to be a part of that."

"It's impossible to say what will set us apart from other teams in the league because it's a new season, every team will be different," Leitner said. "I hope we develop into a team that will exemplify on and off the ice superior grit than the rest."

Don't wait to renew or purchase season tickets! Fans can secure their seats now for the upcoming season here. The Ice Flyers kick-off their commemorative 15th season on Saturday, October 21 (vs. Birmingham) at the Pensacola Bay Center.
