Alumni Update
Mike Cammalleri
Michigan
Los Angeles Kings
F (Richmond Hill, ONT)
Mike Cammalleri was off the IR for
barely two weeks before he went on a
tear, posting six points in two games.
On Thursday when hosting St Louis,
the former Wolverine recorded his fi rst
three-assist game since February, 2007.
On all three of his assists Alexander
Frolov was the goal scorer and Patrick
O’Sullivan notched the other helper.
The Kings went on to win 5-1. Saturday
night saw the Kings host the Chicago
Blackhawks. The Richomnd Hill, Ont.,
native tallied a goal and two assists in a
four-goal third period as the Kings came
storming back to tie in regulation. The
Hawks went on to win in OT, 6-5. In 109
career games at Michigan, Cammalleri
scored 65 goals and 130 points, leading
the Wolverines to a pair of CCHA regularseason
championships, a playoff title and
two Frozen Four appearances. During his
sophomore and junior seasons he was
elected to both the All-Conference and
All-American teams. In his junior year,
Michigan won both the regular-season
and playoff titles, and Cammalleri was
a member of the All-Tournament team.
The forward made his professional debut
in 2002 with the Manchester Monarchs,
and split time between them and the LA
Kings that season. Since then, he has
scored 197 points in 265 NHL games.
In 2004-05 he won the Willie Marshall
Award for scoring the most goals in the
AHL season with 46. Cammalleri was
selected by Los Angeles in the second
round of the 2001 draft.
