D-man Mitera assigned by Ducks to Bakersfield
Former Michigan captain and 1st round pick reassigned from San Antonio
Bakersfield, Calif. - The
Bakersfield Condors, official ECHL affiliate of the Anaheim Ducks,
announced today that D Mark Mitera was assigned to the team by the
Ducks from San Antonio of the American Hockey League (AHL).
Mitera, 22, played in five games with San Antonio this
season,
recording no points. The 6-3, 215-pound, Royal Oak, Michigan, native,
also played in five games with Iowa (AHL) last season, recording two
assists, both coming in his first professional game.
Drafted in
the first round (19th overall) by the Ducks in the 2007 NHL Entry
Draft, Mitera captained the University of Michigan in his senior year
last season, cut short by a torn ACL. In 2007-08, Mitera served as
alternate captain of Michigan, leading all Wolverines defensemen in
scoring with 23 points (2g-21a). That season, he was named to the CCHA
Second All-Star Team and the NCAA East Regional All-Tournament Team. He
also helped Michigan to a CCHA Championship Title.
Mitera has
also appeared on the international stage, representing the United
States at the 2006 World Junior Championships in Vancouver.
