The Atlanta Gladiators have signed goaltender Logan Stein to a Standard Player Contract (SPC) following the recall of Ethan Haider to the AHL’s Milwaukee Admirals (Nashville Predators).

Ethan Haider

Haider, 24, continues to shine, carrying a 4–1–0 record, 2.17 goals-against average, and .932 save percentage through five starts with Atlanta. The 6’4”, 190-pound netminder from St. Louis Park, Minnesota, earned his opportunity after being selected by Nashville in the fifth round (148th overall) of the 2019 NHL Draft. His calm demeanor, sharp positioning, and quick rebound control have made him one of the ECHL’s early breakout goaltenders this season.

Ethan Haider stood tall in net for Atlanta in their recent match against Savannah on November 8, turning aside 30 of 31 shots in a tightly contested 2–1 overtime win against the Ghost Pirates. Haider was especially sharp in the final 40 minutes and overtime, helping the Gladiators weather a late push and dominate the extra frame. His .968 save percentage earned him the game’s second star and was instrumental in securing the road win for Atlanta.

Logan Stein

With Haider moving up to Milwaukee, Atlanta turns to a familiar face in Logan Stein, who rejoins the organization after attending the team’s 2025 training camp. The 24-year-old Suwanee, Georgia native wrapped up his collegiate career at the University of Michigan, appearing in 23 games during the 2024–25 season and posting a 3.22 GAA with a .893 SV%. Before joining the Wolverines, Stein spent four seasons with Ferris State University, earning praise for his tracking ability, focus, and consistent work ethic.

The 6’2”, 209-pound goaltender also gained valuable experience with the USHL’s Waterloo Black Hawks, where he recorded a 2.33 GAA and .911 SV% in 20 games during the 2019–20 campaign.

Stein’s addition bolsters the Gladiators’ depth in goal as they maintain their position atop the ECHL standings, supported by a disciplined defense and one of the league’s strongest save percentages.
