A native of Calgary, Alberta, Elynuik has 14 points (7g-7a) in eight games with the Everblades this season after beginning the season in Slovakia with Liptovsky Mikulas HK, where he had three points (2g-1a) in five games.
Elyniuk has totaled 45 points (17g-28a) in 43 career ECHL games with Florida, Rapid City and Newfoundland while adding 71 points (25g-46a) in 210 career American Hockey League games with Toronto, Tucson and Chicago.
