The Rail Yard Dawgs announced on Friday that Sean Leonard has been called up to the ECHL’s Norfolk Admirals.

This is Leonard’s first career call-up, after a strong start to the 2021-2022 season in Roanoke. The five-foot-eleven defenseman had appeared in all 16 games for the Dawgs, registering five assists, five fights, and a team-high plus-11 plus/minus rating. Leonard will be available for Norfolk in their weekend doubleheader starting tonight against Wheeling.

The Dawgs are back home this weekend for a two game series against the Evansville Thunderbolts. Both games are scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m EST at Berglund Center. Tonight is Hockey Is For Everyone night, while Saturday night’s game is the Teddy Bear Toss game.
