Express adds American scorer
Espanola Express of the Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League has signed American-born, 1996 birth-year forward Nathan Viberg.
The speedy Viberg becomes the fifth American to sign with Espanola during the off-season.
Viberg started the 2015-2016 season with the Wisconsin Whalers of the North American 3 Hockey League and had 24 goals in 34 games before advancing to the Springfield Blues of the North American Hockey League, where he tallied four times in 16 outings.
“Nate will add some experience and leadership to our room this year,” noted Express head coach Jason Rapcewicz. “His offensive ability and creativity will also be a welcomed addition.”
