The Florida Everblades and Kansas City Mavericks completed a trade on Thursday, February 1st. Forward Luke Santerno was sent to the Everblades for future considerations.
27-year-old Luke Santerno made his professional debut with the Greenville Swamp Rabbits in the 2021-22 season. He is a tall, right-handed forward who has played 69 games for three clubs in the ECHL, scoring six goals, 15 assists, and 21 points. He has some playoff experience, playing in five games but recording a zero on the stat sheet. Santerno has played 34 games with the Mavericks this year, recording three goals and five assists. He makes the 17th forward on the Everblades roster and could see action against the Savannah Ghost Pirates as early as tonight.
The Mavericks received future considerations from the Everblades. The Everblades must complete the future considerations transaction by June 20th, 2024, the ECHL deadline. Specific trade details were not published, but typically, future considerations involve a player. The negotiating team can ask for particular traits/ qualities of the player, such as a player that can play on both the left and right wings and is a right-handed shot. Regardless, Luke Santerno will be in an Everblades sweater soon.
The Everblades will play the Ghost Pirates on Friday and Saturday night at Enmarket Arena in Savannah, and the Mavericks will play a home-away-home series against the Wichita Thunder on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
