The Cincinnati Cyclones have acquired forwards Bobo Carpenter and Zach Tsekos from the Florida Everblades to complete the future considerations trade that sent Zack Andrusiak to Florida at the trade deadline. Carpenter, who recently led the Everblades to a third consecutive Kelly Cup, served as an assistant captain this year. The 27-year-old accumulated 46 points during the regular season and outperformed all Florida skaters with 23 points and 12 goals during the team’s extended playoff run. Prior to this, he played four years in the AHL with the Milwaukee Admirals and Bridgeport Sound Tigers, following a four-year stint with Boston University. He will certainly have a positive impact on this young Cyclones team and can provide mentorship to the developing younger players

Bobo’s father, Bobby, was an outstanding forward who played 18 years in the NHL. He was most famously known for being the first American player to score 50 goals in one season. During his career, he won one Stanley Cup with the New Jersey Devils in 1995. Over his 18-year tenure in the NHL, he transitioned from being a high goal scorer to becoming one of the best shut-down centers in the league.

Zach Tsekos, a left-handed forward, moves to the Cyclones after finishing his third professional season. In the most recent season, he accumulated 11 points (5 goals, 6 assists) in 27 games played with the eventual Kelly Cup champions. The native of Montréal, Quebec has competed in 60 ECHL games between the Everblades and the Grizzlies, in addition to participating in six AHL games with the Colorado Eagles. During his college career, he played for Clarkson University and Sacred Heart, ultimately amassing a total of 117 points over five years.
