The goaltending tandem in Wheeling this year has been Penguins prospect Alex D'Orio, a 20-year-old in his rookie professional season, and Jordan Ruby, a 28-year-old in his fifth professional season.
Ruby joined the Nailers last December when he was signed out of the SPHL, and was dominant in the second half of the season. He appeared in 27 total games for the Nailers last year and recorded a 2.87 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage, leading the team in both categories. So, it wasn't a surprise when Ruby was one of the first players re-signed by the Nailers this summer.
