Four days after adding defensive depth with the signing of Jaden VanWalleghem, Powell River Kings announced the signing of forward Sam Esposito, who is from Westfield, New Jersey.
“Sam is a shifty and deceptive player on his edges,” stated Kings’ head coach and general manager Stephan Seeger Jr. “He has a motor that never stops.”
Esposito, who is 18, played last season with the Danbury Jr. Hat Tricks in the North American Hockey League. He recorded seven points in 23 games.
“One word to describe him would be: energy,” added Seeger Jr. “He is relentless and has a nice, heavy release. We are excited to welcome Sam to the Kings’ organization.”
