The first Hobey Baker winner from St. Cloud State is on his way to Deutsche Eishockey Liga.
LeBlanc, a former Chicago Blackhawk, has agreed to an one-year contract with the Augsburger Panther of Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga, the club announced Friday.
LeBlanc was signed by the Blackhawks shortly after he was named the 2013 Hobey Baker winner as the top player in NCAA hockey. He made his NHL debut April 24, 2013 against the Edmonton Oilers, and would only play one more game against the St. Louis Blues three nights later.
