Hounds track free agent
Ryan Roth, an American-born forward with a 2000 birth date, has committed to the Soo Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League.
The 5-foot-9, 160-pound Roth was slated to pursue a National Collegiate Athletic Association opportunity at St. Lawrence University before opting for the Greyhounds and the OHL.
“Not only is Ryan an elite player but he is an elite student which means the options were limitless for where he could take his academic and hockey talents,” noted Greyhounds general manager Kyle Raftis.
“Ryan comes to us as an extremely skilled player who combines his skating ability with his high hockey IQ,” Raftis added. “This enables him to be in the position that makes himself or his teammates offensively dangerous at all times.”
Roth is a product of the highly-regarded Detroit Honeybaked program.
Great Ryan. Grandpa Roth
