EVERETT - Recently graduated Everett Silvertips overager Landon Oslanski has hooked on with the Stockton Thunder of the ECHL on an amateur tryout agreement.

Oslanski, 20, completed his junior career with the Silvertips this season following three years with the Lethbridge Hurricanes. After being claimed off waivers just before training camp, Oslanski went on to become Everett's second-leading scorer with 48 points this year.

The only Silvertip to appear in all 72 regular season games, he also accounted for 96 penalty minutes and a team-high 23 powerplay points while splitting time between defense and forward. He then contributed three assists and 19 penalty minutes in six playoff games.

A native of Camrose, Alberta, Oslanski shared this year's team MVP honor with Josh Winquist and was also voted the winner of the F.I.E.R.C.E.
