Marc-André Lacombe of the East Ottawa Thunder has signed on with the Varkaus Eagles of the Finnish Div II Hockey League. He has also accepted a scholarship at Savonia University where he will be studying Business Admin and Marketing.The Varkaus Eagles, quoting their own words, "are very happy to acquire Marc-André. He has a lot of composure, reads the ice very well and is an excellent passer and playmaker. He will surely develop and help us tremendously. Marc-André received attention during the East Ottawa-Embrun series, and, again during a camp (Ken Burns' Camp) in which he has attended for the last 3-4 years( April to June -- 2hrs every Sat. & Sun.) He will be flying to Belfast in late August for 3 exhibition games ( 2 in Belfast and 1 in Dundalk) and on to Helsinki for an intensive hockey program.
The EOJCHL wish Marc-André all the success in his new hockey endeavour and congratulations. |
