Coyotes sign goaltender Hunter Miska to entry-level contract
Dennis Wierzbicki / USA Today Sports
The Arizona Coyotes have signed 21-year-old college free-agent goaltender Hunter Miska to an entry-level deal, the club announced Saturday.
Miska led the University of Minnesota-Duluth to the Frozen Four this past season, going 27-5-5 with a .920 save percentage, 2.20 goals-against average, and five shutouts in his freshman campaign.
Prior to joining Minnesota-Duluth, Miska spent time with the Dubuque Fighting Saints of the USHL and the Penticton Vees of the BCHL.
At just 6-foot-1, Miska is considered undersized for a goaltender nowadays.
The Coyotes don't appear to have a deep prospect pool between the pipes, and Miska's likely to start with the team's AHL affiliate.
