Prospect Scouting Report 

Name: Armani Calamari 

From: Toronto Ontario Canada 

Height: 5'8

Weight: 170 LB

 

 Armani Calamari's VHLM career began by signing a short waiver contract with the Philadelphia Reapers where he started as a role player. He was mostly used in 4th line roles here and was lucky to get a point via assist and a few shots in the eleven regular season games he played. He was just an extra body for the Reapers to use as they try to go for a playoff run but it was great experience for him. However they were unfortunately eliminated in the first round but Armani did not let it bother him. Afterwards he went into the VHLM draft so he could find a more permanent home.

 

 He was chosen by the Ottawa Lynx 40th overall and was named one of the captains there after impressing the coaches there with his friendly attitude. He was way more productive there getting 13 goals and 25 assists as he was now on one of the main lines. He also ballooned his shots from just five all the way to 122 in 44 games. He was also a relatively clean player with only twelve penalty minutes. For the short time he spent in Ottawa he was a big part of a team trying to build towards the future.

 

 However about halfway through the season or so he was traded back to the Reapers for a few picks. The Reapers were again looking for a capable center and Armani fit that bill. Despite again being on a low line Armani did not complain much and just tried to make the most of the minutes he got. In 30 regular season games he got two goals and five assists in 39 shots. He wasn't quite as clean as before with sixteen penalty minutes but being in a rough and tumble city like Philadelphia probably influenced him a bit.

He never got a point in the playoffs unfortunately because the Reapers were swept. He hasn't done much in ether playoff runs actually. Armani was a bit miffed but tried his best to get over it as the VHL draft awaits. Afterwards the Reapers honored him a bit by giving him a alumni jersey in thier ring of honor which is not as good as the Hall of  Fame but does mean they acknowledge his time there. Armani has since said that he had hung that jersey in his office.

 

 He has also said that he is excited for the VHLE despite some apprehension around the league from other players. He just seems like a guy who just loves hockey no matter where he has to play it so his upcoming seasons will be interesting to watch.
