Patrick Polino has been a traveling man lately. Now, he’s heading back to one of his previous clubs.
The Rapid City Rush announced on Friday the club has traded the forward to the Cincinnati Cyclones in exchange for future considerations.
The Rush acquired Polino from the Allen Americans on Wednesday in exchange for forward Tyler Burnie. Polino did not play for Rapid City.
The 29-year-old Buffalo, N.Y. native is in his fifth professional season and fourth in the ECHL. He spent three years—including two in which he played all 72 regular-season games—with the Cyclones to begin his career.
The 5-foot-9, 181-pound right-shot center has split time this season between the Adirondack Thunder and the Allen Americans. He faced the Rush five times as a member of Allen.
In 55 ECHL games this season, Polino has recorded 24 points (5-19-24).
The Rush are coming off an overtime win Thursday against the Iowa Heartlanders. They host Iowa again Friday at 7:05 Pm MT.
