Tebbs back in Frostbite crease

Adirondack Frostbite News Release


GLENS FALLS, NY - The Adirondack Frostbite, proud member of the United Hockey League, announced today that the team has re-signed goaltender Kris Tebbs for the 2005-06 season. As per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Tebbs joined the Frostbite midway through last season from the University of Nebraska-Omaha. He recorded his first professional win in his pro debut, picking up a 6-3 win over Motor City on January 23. He would go on to win each of his next three starts, beginning his pro career with a perfect 4-0-0 record. Tebbs earned his first professional shutout with a 3-0 blanking of Danbury on February 2. He appeared in 21 games during his rookie season, posting a record of 15-4-1, to go along with a 2.60 goals against average and a save percentage of .907. Because of United Hockey League rules, Tebbs will still be considered a rookie during the 2005-06 season.

Tebbs rejoins fellow goaltender Derek Gustafson, who re-signed with the Frostbite earlier this month, in the Adirondack crease.

"With the return of Kris alongside Derek, we feel that we have one of the strongest goaltending tandems in the league," Frostbite General Manager and Head Coach Marc Potvin said. "They both compete extremely hard, and have always given us a chance to win every night. I expect Kris to continue to improve on the remarkable start he has had to his professional career."

Adirondack opens the 2005-06 regular season on Friday, October 22, with a road date at Richmond. The Frostbite open the home portion of the schedule on Saturday, October 23, also against the RiverDogs, with face-off set for 7:35 p.m. at the Glens Falls Civic Center.

Season tickets for the 2005-06 season are still available. For more information, or to place your order, call the Frostbite office at (518) 926-7825. Individual game tickets go on sale at the Glens Falls Civic Center Box Office on Saturday, October 8, at 10:00 a.m.
