Wilkes-Barre signs defensemen Erkamps, Siebenaler

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton has signed defensemen Macoy Erkamps and Blake Siebenaler to AHL contracts for the 2019-20 season, the team announced Monday.

Both Erkamps and Siebenaler were on NHL contracts with Pittsburgh during the 2018-19 season and were set to become restricted free agents. Both will be in their fourth professional seasons next year.

Erkamps, 24, was acquired from the Senators in December along with forward Ben Sexton in exchange for defenseman Stefan Elliott and forward Tobias Lindberg. Before the trade, Erkamps had spent the entire season in the ECHL with the Brampton Beast.
