Ahren Nittel Spylo (born December 6, 1983 in Waterloo , Ontario ) is a German - Canadian ice hockey player ( striker ) who was last under contract with HC Davos in the Swiss National League . His brother Adam was also a hockey player.
Career
Spylo played from the 2000/01 season to the middle of the 2002/03 season with the Windsor Spitfires in the OHL and then moved within the league to the Oshawa Generals . At the Windsor Spitfires he scored 37 goals and 21 assists (58 points in total) in 136 games (including 16 play-off games), while at the Oshawa Generals he scored again in 33 games (including 13 play-off games) 20 goals and 9 assists added (29 points scorer). He was selected in the third round of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft in 85th place by the New Jersey Devils .
In the 2003/04 season Spylo played 42 games in the AHL with the Albany River Rats and brought it to seven points scorer (4 goals, 3 assists), as well as two games in the UHL with the Adirondack IceHawks . Ahren Spylo played for the Albany River Rats again for the next two seasons (AHL, 95 games: 39 goals, 22 assists = 61 scorer points) and then moved to his first European station in Davos in Switzerland in 06/07 (17 games, 2 goals ). He moved twice within the National League A to the SCL Tigers and shortly afterwards to HC Friborg-Gottéron . In the middle of the 2006/07 season , the striker came to his first DEL station, the Hamburg Freezers , in Germany. At first he was only brought in for a test phase of five days, but he was convincing and was signed until the end of the season. For the 2007/08 season he signed a one-year contract with the Nürnberg Ice Tigers , where he was already convincing in preparation for his dominant style of play. Nuremberg coach Benoît Laporte described Spylo after the preparatory game against HC Slavia Prague (final score 4: 3, Spylo scored the remarkable goal to 3: 1) as “perhaps the most talented player in the league”. In September he was named Player of the Month by the specialist ice hockey news magazine .
Since April 2010 Ahren Spylo has been playing in Switzerland again at EHC Biel . In his first season in Biel, he was his team's top scorer . In his second season in Biel, Spylo was one of the top scorers (19 goals, 15 assists). In October 2012, Spylo tore his cruciate ligament in a game against his former employer Davos and was out for the rest of the season .
After the 2015/16 season, which was disappointing for the club, Spylo did not receive a contract extension. At the end of January 2017, Spylo was signed by HC Davos and given a contract until the end of the 2016/17 season, but was the fifth foreigner (with four contingent places) to play in only three games.
Others
- Spylo has both German and Canadian citizenship, as his mother is German and his father is Canadian.
- His older brother Adam Spylo played in the DEL, including the Nürnberg Ice Tigers .
- At the DEL Allstar Game 2008 in Dresden , he fell spectacularly into the North American team at the Skills Competition and suffered a laceration in his eye, which is why he could not take part in the game.
Achievements and Awards
- 2009 All-Star-Team of the Spengler Cup
