On Tuesday, the Macon Mayhew acquired Billy Jerry in a trade with the Fayetteville Marksmen for Tim Faulkner.
Jerry is 6-foot-4 and plays center-ice; he has the size, skills, and intelligence to add value to the Mayhem’s top line. He does many things that do not necessarily appear on the scoresheet, from faceoffs to the penalty kill. He joins the Mayhem’s other centers, Alex Cohen, Michael McChesney, and Davis Nippard.
