From the Naples News 'Blades Blog:
And Blades fans have seen the last of James DeLory, a 20-year-old rookie and the team's sole Panthers prospect. The 6-foot-5 "fighter-in-training" had a reputation as a tough guy in the OHL, but he had to learn to switch positions from defense to forward. Because DeLory's just 20, he's eligible for one more year in juniors. Cameron said he'll be sent back to the OHL's Oshawa Generals for his overage year. With 6-foot-8 enforcer Riley Emmerson remaining in the AHL, DeLory's departure leaves the Blades minus-2 big bodies. Plus, with Herauf out on injured reserve, there's a slight void in proven fighters. Should be interesting to see who steps up to fill their roles ... or how soon Emmerson is sent back down to the Blades.
