Wolves add net insurance
Sudbury Wolves of the Ontario Hockey League have signed former Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League goalie Mackenzie Savard to a standard player agreement.
With Wolves starting goalie Zack Bowman sidelined due to injury, Savard will serve as a backup to fellow OHL rookie Jake McGrath.
Savard, who has a 1997 birth date, formerly played in the NOJHL with the Rayside-Balfour Canadians.
“We’re very pleased to be adding to our goaltending depth with an excellent young man like Mackenzie,” said Wolves general manager Barclay Branch.
