Independence, MO – The Kansas City Mavericks have announced the signing of defenseman Chase Spencer to a Standard Player Contract (SPC).
Spencer, 25, is a right-handed defenseman from Georgetown, Ontario, Canada. Standing 6'2" and weighing 194 pounds, Spencer most recently played for the Peoria Rivermen of the Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL), where he recorded 31 points and a +20 rating in 49 career SPHL games.
“We’re excited to add Chase Spencer to our roster,” said Mavericks General Manager and Head Coach Tad O'Had. “He’s having a strong season in the SPHL with Peoria and is very deserving of this opportunity."
Before joining Peoria, Spencer spent part of the 2023-24 season with Bäcken HC in Sweden. Prior to turning professional, he excelled during three seasons at Adrian College, where he tallied 45 points and a +49 rating in 83 games. “Chase is a mobile defenseman with a good stick and high hockey IQ,” O’Had added. “We believe he’ll be a great fit and thrive here in Kansas City.”
