HARTFORD, October 1, 2018: Hartford Wolf Pack general manager Chris Drury announced today that the Wolf Pack has signed forward Shawn St. Amant to an American Hockey League contract.
St. Amant, 21, is a 6-0, 190-pound third-year pro who split his first two pro seasons between the San Antonio Rampage of the AHL and the ECHL’s Colorado Eagles, with whom the LeGardeur, Quebec native has won a pair of Kelly Cup Championships. Last year with San Antonio, St. Amant logged 34 games, scoring four goals and serving 16 minutes in penalties. In 11 games with Colorado, he had two goals and six assists for eight points, along with eight PIM, and had 3-4-7 in 18 postseason games during the Eagles’ title run.
As a rookie in 2016-17, St. Amant suited up for 28 games with the Rampage, contributing three goals and five assists for eight points and registering 12 penalty minutes, and played 35 ECHL contests with the Eagles, posting totals of 13 goals and 15 assists for 28 points, plus 10 PIM. In the playoffs, St. Amant’s totals of ten assists and 15 points in 18 games were good for fifth on the champion Colorado squad.
