INDIANAPOLIS - The American Hockey League's Manitoba Moose announced Wednesday that they have recalled goaltender Colton Phinney from his loan to the ECHL's Indy Fuel.
Phinney, 24, made a career-high 42 saves Sunday in a 7-4 Fuel victory over the league-leading Toledo Walleye, in what was his first appearance with Indy. In 22 games as a rookie split between the Fuel and the Jacksonville IceMen, the native of Chatham, N.J. has a 5-8-4 record with a 3.29 GAA and a .888 save percentage. The AHL call-up is Phinney's second of the season, though the netminder did not see game action during his first stint with the Moose in late January.
A product of Princeton University, Phinney holds school records in saves (3,440), games played (110) and minutes (6411:41). Over his four year NCAA career, Phinney compiled a 27-74-9 record with two shutouts, a 3.10 goals against average, and a .912 save percentage.
The Fuel continue their push for the Kelly Cup Playoffs Friday with a visit U.S. Bank Arena Friday to take on the Cincinnati Cyclones, before returning to Indiana Farmers Coliseum Saturday to host Toledo.
Single game tickets are now available for the entire 2017-18 Fuel season at Indiana Farmers Coliseum!
