Netminder Hunter Vorva has signed a deal with the Nottingham Panthers for the 2024-25 season.
The 28-year-old highly-rated prospect joins the Panthers after an impressive season with his hometown club Kalamazoo Wings in the ECHL where he returned a .92 save percentage.
The USA-born goalie had a solid four-year college career in the NCAA, being named Player of the Season in 2018-19, before spending part of the lockdown 2020-21 campaign in France as he helped Marseille to the championship title.
In 2020-21, he led the SPHL with Huntsville Havoc in goals against (1.93) and save percentage (.934) and was named the league's Goaltender of the year.
His performances in the minor leagues and the ECHL attracted the attentions of the AHL scouts, earning him professional tryout contracts with Cleveland Monsters and Rochester Americans.
