Troy Schwab (born December 24, 1984) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey center, who played in the ECHL and the Central Hockey League. ==Playing career== Schwab first played minor Junior A hockey with his hometown club, the Kindersley Klippers, of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League. After helping win the title in 2004, Schwab led the team and league in scoring with 85 points the following season to be selected to the First All-Star Team and recognized as the 2005 league MVP. Schwab then committed to play collegiate hockey in the United States, for Lake Superior State University of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association. As a smaller sized offensive forward, Schwab immediately contributed with the Lakers and contributed 28 points in his freshman season in the 2005–06 season. Impressively elevated to the leadership group in just his sophomore season, Schawb assumed the captaincy by his Junior year. He completed his four-year collegiate career with a productive 110 points over 150 games. Undrafted initially due to his diminutive size, he was signed to an ECHL contract with the Johnstown Chiefs to begin his professional career. Schwab with fellow collegiate rookie, Connor Shields, led the Chiefs offense in 2009–10 and compiled a team leading 35 assists for 53 points in 67 games. Upon the season end, and with the 22 year operation of the Chiefs folding, Schwab was inivited to the Oklahoma City Barons training camp for the following season. After his release from the Barons training camp, Schwab moved to the Central Hockey League with the Wichita Thunder on October 20, 2010. He amassed 55 points in 54 games during the 2010–11 season, before losing in the first round of the playoffs for the Ray Miron President's Cup. In the offseason on June 26, 2011, his rights were dealt by the Thunder to the Allen Americans in exchange for goalie Chris Whitley. Without coming to terms with the Americans, Schwab signed for his first European venture on a one-year contract with ETC Crimmitschau of the German 2nd Bundesliga on August 1, 2011. During the 2011–12 season he was among the team leaders in scoring, earning top line time, recording 45 points in 45 games to place second on the Pirates. Schwab returned to North America the following the completion of his season in Germany and signed a one-year contract with the inuagural Denver Cutthroats of the CHL. His signing on August 8, 2012 marked a reunion alongside former Wichita Thunder team and line mate AJ Gale. After two successful seasons with the Cutthroats, Schwab opted to leave as the Cutthroats' franchise leading scorer, to sign a one-year contract with the Toledo Walleye of the ECHL on August 8, 2014. In the 2014–15 season, Schwab resumed his role as an offensive leader posting 60 points in 70 games with the top ranked Walleye. He increased his scoring rate in the post-season with 22 points in 21 contests, as the Walleye reached the conference finals. On July 12, 2015, Schwab announced his retirement from professional hockey. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Troy Schwab」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
