Orlando Solar Bears News Release
ORLANDO, Fla. - The Orlando Solar Bears have announced that the club has agreed to terms with rookie forward Corey Kalk for the 2018-19 season.
"Corey gives us versatility up front, as he played at both center and on the wing in college," Solar Bears head coach and general manager Drake Berehowsky said. "He's someone who will fit well within our locker room."
Kalk, 23, will begin his professional career after skating in 34 games for Dartmouth College during the 2017-18 season, logging 21 points (8g-13a) and 12 penalty minutes. Kalk's 21 points were third in scoring on the Big Green roster, while the 5-foot-11, 181-pound senior served as one of Dartmouth's alternate captains.
"I'm so grateful to have signed with the Solar Bears, as I've always dreamed of playing professional hockey," Kalk said. "I look forward to playing for a world-class organization, coaching staff and fan base, and I can't wait to fly south and get started."
In 117 career games with Dartmouth, the Thornhill, Ontario native generated 70 points (33g-37a) and 62 penalty minutes.
