Storm trades Sitko to Gwinnett

1/17/2007

The Toledo Storm traded defenseman Jon Sitko yesterday for forward Bruce Mulherin of the Gwinnett Gladiators.

The Storm, which has lost four straight and six of its last seven games, has fallen into last place in the ECHL North Division.

Sitko had one goal and five assists in 33 games. Mulherin has scored two goals

and dished out nine assists in 30 games with Gwinnett.

Toledo is just 3-12-1 on the road, but is 13-5-0 at the Sports Arena and has a three-game home stand this weekend, beginning with division leading Cincinnati on Friday.

Defenseman Paul Crosty was loaned to Manchester of the American Hockey League.
