Skating in his fifth season with the Anaheim Ducks, we have Kyle Palmieri. This Right Winger played at the University of Notre Dame for one season before being drafted by the Ducks in 2009. Palmieri sustained two injuries this 2014-2015 season, a high-ankle sprain in October and a shoulder injury in December. However, this didn't stop him from still playing in 32 games, scoring 11 goals, and providing 7 assists. He is a versatile player who can play either wing position and uses his speed to put up points.
Kyle Palmieri grew up in New Jersey and finished his last two years of high school as a member of the U.S. National Team Development Program in Ann Arbor, MI. In an interview with Ducks Off the Ice, Palmieri said that he grew up on his grandparents' farm in New Jersey and his father built a rink in the backyard for him to practice hockey. Kyle spends his summers living in Boston but still goes to New Jersey to visit his family during the off-season. All season long, keep up with Kyle Palmieri and the rest of the Anaheim Ducks right here on FOX Sports San Diego!
