GREENSBORO, NC – The Greensboro Gargoyles, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes and the AHL’s Chicago Wolves, announced today that forward Roman Kraemer has been signed to a Standard Player Contract (SPC).
Kraemer, 28, has played 113 games over the past three seasons in the FPHL with the Twin City Thunderbirds. This season, he posted 63 points (29G, 34A) in 53 games. Kraemer played two seasons of NCAA Division I for Robert Morris University (RMU), sticking with the program for his final two college seasons in the ACHL after RMU removed their Division I team.
After his final season at RMU, Kraemer signed his first professional contract with Melbourne Ice in the Australian Ice Hockey League (AIHL). He returned for a second season in 2023-24, finishing with 80 points (39G, 41A) in 35 games over two seasons.
