The Grande Prairie Storm are proud to announce the signing of 2004 born defenceman Damian Palmieri.
The Delta , BC product is coming to the GP Storm from the WHL Vancouver Giants, where he has spent the previous 3 seasons. Damian was a 4th round, 87th overall Bantam pick by the Giants back in 2019. Since then, he has suited up for a total of 129 regular season games with the Giants, scoring 5 goals 11 assist, and racking up 231 penalty minutes. The 6’1 190-pound Palmieri also suited up for 17 playoff games over the 3 seasons, scoring 1 goal and 2 assists.
GM Mark Bomersback had this to say in regard to the signing of the veteran blue liner. “Very happy to get Damian signed and add him to our group. He’s a solid veteran that’s going to come in here and fit right in with the strong core and culture we have in place. He’s a physical two-way D that’s hard to play against, has a good skill set that can move pucks, and create offence as well. He’s a good addition for us and we couldn’t be happier.”
