Wingels signs with Sharks

By John Boyle | Tuesday, June 1, 2010, 01:42 PM

Miami junior captain Tommy Wingels has signed an NHL entry-level contract with the San Jose Sharks, the team announced today, June 1.

Wingels, 22, totaled 99 points (43-56) in three seasons with Miami, helping lead the RedHawks to back-to-back appearances in the Frozen Four, including the title game in 2009.

WIngels was fourth on the team in points (43) this past season. He was a second-team, All-Central Collegiate Hockey Association honoree and named as the CCHA’s Best Defensive Forward.

“Tommy’s mix of hockey sense and skill allow him to make an impact in all phases of the game,” San Joe’s GM Doug Wilson said. “Miami head coach Enrico Blasi has built an extremely strong program at Miami and Tommy was a leader for them during his three years there. We’re excited for him to begin his development at the professional level.”

Wingels (6-0, 195) was selected by San Jose in the sixth round (177th overall) of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.
