Just a day after recent Steelheads rookie addition Sean Garrity scored the game-winner in a ninth round shootout in Utah, Idaho?s Head Coach Derek Laxdal announced he will add another rookie forward to the lineup. Mike Kneeland has signed an ECHL Amateur Tryout Contract.Kneeland, a senior at Lake Forest, has notched 25 points, 11 goals and 14 assists, in 27 games for his Foresters hockey team this season. The 5-11, 185-pound Calgary, AB native scored a career single-game high 6 points twice during this 2008-09 season. He began his collegiate career at Lake Forest during the 2005-06 season, and in 95 total games-played he?s scored 96 points (40g-56a) with 80 penalty minutes.Prior to college, Kneeland played juniors with the Atlantic Junior Hockey League?s Calgary Royals and was a teammate for two seasons with former Steelhead and recent Washington Capitals (NHL) call-up Jay Beagle.
