Nylander joins Rovers

The Rovers added to their roster today, signing forward Michael Nylander to a four-year contract. Nylander has played in 678 RHL games with the Banff Grizzlies, Kansas City Blaze, Albany StrapHangers, Brooklyn Geddy Lees, Yellowknife Dangerous Penetrators, and most recently the Guelph Reapers, scoring 142 goals and 175 assists for 317 points over his career. "Michael has always been an adept playmaker, and that is something we felt we needed right now. We'll try to work him into the lineup on the power-play and see how it goes from there".

Nylander may be in the lineup tonight against the Spectres if the coaching staff feels he is in game-shape right away.
