PRINCETON, N.J. — Greenville Swamp Rabbits forward Johno May has been named as the team’s sole representative to take part in the 2019 CCM/ECHL All-Star Classic in Toledo and will compete on Team East. The teams were determined by a vote of ECHL coaches, captains, media relations directors, and media members.
May, 25, is in his second season with the Swamp Rabbits and has been a force to be reckoned with since his arrival on March 20, 2018. Since then, in 43 games, he has scored 18 goals and 18 assists.
Not only one of the league’s most dynamic rookies, but May has also been one of the league’s most dynamic players overall. His accomplishments netted him a call-up to the San Diego Gulls of the American Hockey League, the direct affiliate of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks.
The Mahtomedi, Minn. native is no stranger to being a standout player. His freshman season at American International College saw him score 30 points, which is eighth-most in a single season in school history, and his 23 assists were second-most in a single season in school history.
The 2019 CCM/ECHL All-Star Classic features a 3-on-3 tournament. Toledo Walleye players will make up two teams, and the other two teams will be made up of representatives from the Eastern and Western Conference. Also, the Classic will feature a Skills Competition.
67 players that have played in the ECHL All-Star Game have played at the NHL level. For the full ECHL All-Star Game roster, go to ECHL.com.
