NORFOLK, VA – The Norfolk Admirals, ECHL affiliate of the Edmonton Oilers, are proud to announce the re-signing of forward Steven Whitney for the 2016-17 season. Whitney, the team’s leading scorer in last year’s campaign, tallied 55 points in 66 points. “Steve had a tremendous year last season and we expect him to come in and play a key role for us again,” Admirals head coach Rod Aldoff said. “ has a high skill level and his dedication to the game sets him apart.” Hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, the 25-year-old center began his tenure with the Admirals at the conclusion of the 2012-13 season. After departing for the Florida Everblades in 2014-15, the Boston College product returned to Virginia for the breakout season, one he will look to build off of this fall.
