The Kitchener Rangers of the Ontario Hockey League have signed Wisconsin forward Matt Auffrey. Auffrey was a sophomore for the Badgers. In his freshmen season, he was plagued by injuries which kept his statistics down. Rangers head coach Pete DeBoer is excellent at convincing players to come to the OHL, and he seems to have lured another player away from NCAA hockey.
Auffrey's loss will hurt the Badgers, but it should free up another scholarship for next season, which will allow Wisconsin to go after forward Jim O'Brien or defenseman Kris Fredheim, as was mentioned in an earlier post.
