History

2008-09: Nolan led the offensively challenged Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in points with 43 and penalty minutes with 158.  The team as a whole was dead last in the OHL standings with little positive to speak of on the season.  Nolan played in all situations, including acting as enforcer for the team.

Talent Analysis

The son of NHL coach Ted Nolan, Jordan is solidly built with a large frame filled out with plenty of muscle.  While not in the heavy-weight class of enforcers, he can more than hold his own and play a defensive forward role to keep himself on the ice.

Future

Nolan will compete to stay with the Manchester Monarchs, but already established enforcers Richard Clune and Kevin Westgarth have roster spots secured and may prove to be too large of a hurdle to overcome in his first professional season.  Time in the ECHL or a return to major junior hockey is likely in the cards for the 2009-10 season.
