Shane Conacher has given up his final year of eligibility at Canisius to sign a contract with the Toronto Marlies of the AHL.<\/p>\n

Conacher had 20 goals and 46 points in 39 games this season. He’s expected to play for the Marlies against St. John’s on Saturday.<\/p>\n

“We are extremely happy for Shane as he continues his career at the next level,” Canisius coach Dave Smith said in a news release. “He has helped elevate our program during his three years here and I’m excited to see him continue that success as a pro.<\/p>\n

“We have accomplished a lot with the Conacher family at Canisius and it will be fun to see if Shane can reach the level his brother did after a successful collegiate career with the Griffs.”<\/p>\n

Shane and Cory Conacher are the only Canisius players to reach 100 collegiate points by their junior season. Shane finished with 106 points in three seasons, while Cory finished a four-year career in 2011 with 147 points.<\/p>\n

Cory Conacher played 141 NHL games and played this season in the Swiss league.<\/p>\n

Shane Conacher was a first-team all-Atlantic Hockey selection this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
