The Toronto Marlies have extended 22-year-old forward Hudson Elynuik to a one-year AHL contract, keeping him on for a third season following a strong first full season with the Marlies. Elynuik is a 6’5” centre out of the WHL who impressed from the fourth line in 53 games, scoring five goals and 13 points. Elynuik was initially drafted in 2016 by the Carolina Hurricanes in the third round, but went unsigned before joining the Marlies on an AHL contract.
Elynuik was one only seven Marlies to play more than 20 games on an AHL contract this past season.
