GLENS FALLS, NY – The Adirondack Thunder, proud ECHL affiliate of the New Jersey Devils, announced today that they have signed goaltender Dillon Kelley to a standard player contract.
Kelley, 24, joins the Thunder from the SPHL’s Fayetteville Marksmen, where he has played 20 games this season. The Petoskey, MI native posted a 9-8-2 record for the Marksmen to go along with a 3.00 goals-against average and .901 save percentage. Kelley has one game of ECHL experience with the Norfolk Admirals last season.
Prior to turning pro, the 6-foot-5 netminder played four seasons for NCAA III’s Adrian College in Michigan. Kelley posted his best year during his senior season with the Bulldogs, going 7-1-0 in 11 games played while posting a phenomenal 1.20 GAA and .949 SV%.
The Thunder hit the ice again tonight against the Manchester Monarchs for the first of four games this week.
