Hunter Fejes

Samuel Hunter Fejes (born 31 May 1994) is an American professional ice hockey winger who currently plays for HC Košice of the Slovak Extraliga.
==Biography==
Fejes was born in Anchorage, Alaska. His ancestors came to the US from Slovakia. When he was 10 years old, he was involved in a car crash on the way home from a training that resulted in the death of his mother and left Fejes comatose for weeks.
In April 2022 he was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma. After three months of rigorous chemotherapy treatment, the cancer entered remission and in October he was cancer free.
At the junior level, Fejes played for Shattuck-Saint Mary's junior hockey team and for Colorado College in National Collegiate Athletic Association. In the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, he was drafted by Arizona Coyotes from the 178th place but did make it into the first team. Before joining HC Košice he played in a variety of AHL and ECHL hockey team as well as overseas in Sweden, the Czech Republic and Austria. 
He joined Košice right before the play off phase of the 2022–23 Slovak Extraliga season. At first, he was unsure whether he should accept the offer from Košice, but was persuaded by his Orlando team mate Maxim Čajkovič, who is originally from Slovakia.
