Medvescak sign Banham!

KHL Medvescak Zagreb and goalgetter Frank Banham have agreed terms on a two+one-year contract. The versatile attacker is delighted to join the Croatian Team and looks forward to the next season.

First Transfer Coup for next season: KHL Medvescak Zagreb have signed Frank Banham. 34 years old Journeyman Banham, who was drafted by the  Washington Capitals in 1993 as a sixth-round pick, scored 62 points (league-leading 30 goals) in Erste Bank Eishockey Liga in 2009/2010 when he still wore the green and white of HDD TILIA Olimpija Ljubljana. He returns to Erste Bank Eishockey Liga after a short spell with Swiss side HC Lausanne and comes with bags of experience in AHL, Finnish, Swedish and Russian top-flights. He will wear his Number 38 jersey that will surely be selling heaps in and around Dom Sportova.   


Calahoo, Alberta-born Banham has been praised as top two–way forward with goalscoring and set-up qualities and tormented Defences all across the league, averaging more than a goal per game. He has signed a two-year contract, including an option for another season and commented: „I’m overwhelmed at joining this organization. The team has been successful in all areas, on the sports side as well as with the community and the fans. The Team has had a great start in Erste Bank Eishockey Liga and I’m looking forward to being part of it.”
