HARTFORD, CT – Hartford Wolf Pack General Manager Ryan Martin announced on Friday afternoon that the club has agreed to a one-year standard AHL player contract extension with veteran forward Tanner Fritz through the 2022-23 season.
Fritz, 30, is in his first season with the Wolf Pack after signing as a free agent with the club on September 15th, 2021. Over the course of 43 games with the Pack in 2021-22, Fritz has scored 27 points (7 g, 20 a) and has a +11 +/- rating.
A native of Grande Prairie, Alberta, Fritz has skated in 241 career AHL games with the Wolf Pack and Bridgeport Sound Tigers.

In addition to his 241 career AHL games, Fritz has suited up in 42 career NHL contests, all with the New York Islanders. Fritz appeared in 34 games during the 2017-18 season with the Islanders, then dressed in eight more games during the 2018-19 campaign. He has scored eight career points (3 g, 5 a) during his time in the NHL.
