Long Beach Ice Dogs News Release


LONG BEACH, Calif. - The Long Beach Ice Dogs announced today that goaltender Olivier Michaud has been assigned by the Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League. Michaud is expected to join the team for practice tomorrow.

The 5'11", 172 pound native of Beloeil, Quebec played in 8 games this season with Hamilton, posting a record of 2-4-1 with a goals against average of 3.48 and a .890 save percentage. Last season in Long Beach, Michaud finished with a record of 18-14-6, a goals against average of 2.54 and a .918 save percentage. In addition, Michaud played 22 games for the Columbus Cottonmouths two seasons ago while playing 16 games in Hamilton, and one period of shutout hockey for the Montreal Canadiens in the 2001-2002 season.

"We're very happy to get Olivier back here with us", said Head Coach and Director of Hockey Operations, Malcolm Cameron. "He's had some good experience up in the AHL this season with some wins under his belt and we're looking forward to seeing him with us in Bakersfield. The injury to Halak made it necessary to go out and get another goaltender as every team needs two goaltenders to be successful."

The Ice Dogs next game is at Bakersfield on November 19 to begin a four game road trip before returning home to take on the Victoria Salmon Kings on November 27. Season tickets for the 2005-06 season are still on sale, and can be secured by depositing just $100 per seat. Call (562) ICE-DOGS for visit www.icedogs.com for more information.
