SAVANNAH, Ga. — The Savannah Ghost Pirates announced today the club has been assigned forwards Kai Schwindt and Jay O’Brien by the American Hockey League’s Charlotte Checkers.

Schwindt, 20, appeared in one game for the Checkers and six with the Florida Everblades during the 2023-24 season before returning to the Ontario Hockey League, where he posted 23 points (13 goals, 10 assists) in 33 games for the Sarnia Sting.
