Palocsik, who hails from Aliquippa, Pa., spent this past season playing for the Nittany Lions where he scored two goals and added 14 assists for 16 points in 36 games.

Over the course of his five years in the NCAA, Palocsik spent one year at Penn State and four at Dartmouth College. In 129 career NCAA games, he collected 15 goals and 67 assists for 82 points.

As Palocsik makes the transition to the pros, he will have the opportunity to cement a roster spot with the Walleye. Having proven to be a difference maker at the NCAA level, Palocsik has a good chance to be a go to player out of the gates.
