SARNIA, ON – On Thursday
afternoon, General Manager, Nick
Sinclair announced that the
Sarnia Sting have completed a
deal with the Guelph Storm, in
which they have acquired overage
centreman Stephen Pierog.
In exchange for Pierog, the
Sting have dealt away the club’s
3rd Round pick (WSR) in the 2017
OHL Priority Selection, and the
10th Round pick in the 2016 OHL
Priority Selection.
Pierog was a member of the Storm
last year, in which he was an
OHL Champion and Memorial Cup
Finalist.
Nick Sinclair explains his
thoughts on the transaction,
“Stephen is a versatile and
highly competitive player
capable of playing in all
situations, and will bring
leadership and experience to our
hockey club. We feel that our
younger players will benefit
from having a proven winner,
like Stephen, in our lineup. His
addition will immediately
upgrade our depth at the forward
position, and his experience of
playing in the Memorial Cup last
season will be of great value to
our group, both on and off the
ice.”
Pierog Played three seasons with
the Peterborough Petes after
being drafted 207th overall in
the 2010 OHL Priority Selection.
In the 2012-13 season with the
Petes, the’94-born centreman
tied for most goals (19) and
finished second in assists (16)
for a career-high 35 points.
Pierog will be in the lineup
tomorrow tonight (Friday Nov 21)
for the Sarnia Sting as they
take on the Western Conference
leading, Erie Otters.
