LANTZ: The East Hants Bitar’s Ristorante Penguins have signed three players to complete their roster additions for the 2023-24 NSJHL season.
Added to the roster in an announcement on Feb. 14 were Lockview High Dragon Colin Peryer; Jake O’Connor; and Ryan Coyle.
Peryer was an offensive spark for Lockview High.
He was the second highest scorer with 17 goals and 26 points in 25 games with the Dragons this season. Peryer was an assistant captain with Lockview.
The Pens say he adds some grit and has a heavy shot that will transition nicely into the NSJHL.

Ryan Coyle was the leading scorer for the HMHSHL this season with a total of 59 points (22G | 37A) in 25 games and was an Assistant Captain with the Woodlawn Panthers.
