The Powassan Voodoos, in the middle of a 17-game winning streak has moved up in the CJHL rankings and the team also added another forward.
The Voodoos, who sport a 19-1 record this season, moved up to third in the nation after winning a pair of games last week over Kirkland Lake and Espanola respectively. They were fourth in the 131-team CJHL last week.
The Powassan Voodoos have added veteran forward Raf Praysner from the Soo Eagles for a development fee, the club announced on Monday.
The 5'10" 175 pound forward who is a dual citizen, had four goals along with five assists for nine points in 15 games this season with the Eagles.
Voodoos GM Chris Dawson says Praysner can play all three forward positions.
"He checks off a lot of boxes for us," said Dawson.
"He's a second-year player in this league, he plays special teams, he competes hard and we believe he certainly adds more depth to our forward corps."
The left-hand shot forward had 14 goals and 19 assists for 33 points in 54 games last season with the Eagles.
Praysner, who played minor hockey in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, is expected to make his Voodoos debut Friday night when the Voodoos take on the Hearst Lumberjacks at the Powassan Sportsplex.
