## Former Philadelphia Flyers Prospect Tony Voce Passes Away at 43

The hockey community mourns the loss of Tony Voce, a former Philadelphia Flyers prospect who has passed away at the age of 43. Voce's death was confirmed by the 'Missin Curfew' podcast, leaving fans and former teammates reflecting on his legacy and contributions to the sport.
"Sad to learn that Tony Voce, former Philadelphia Phantom and Boston College player has passed away at age 43

Voce was born in Philly and was a friend of @larryfknflowers

Rest in Peace Tony 🙏🏻"

Voce, a Philadelphia native, made a significant impact during his four years at Boston College in the NCAA, where he tallied an impressive 167 points across 159 games. His stellar performance caught the attention of the Philadelphia Flyers, who signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2004.
Primarily playing in the minors throughout his career, Voce spent three seasons in the American Hockey League with the Philadelphia Phantoms and Grand Rapids Griffins. He was a key player in the Phantoms' 2005 Calder Cup victory. After his stint in the AHL, Voce took his talents to Europe, where he played in Germany, Finland, and Austria for two seasons. In 2009, he returned to North America, playing with the Ontario Reign of the ECHL before retiring at the end of the season.
Voce's journey through the ranks of professional hockey, from the NCAA to the AHL and overseas leagues, showcases his dedication and passion for the game. His career, although primarily spent outside the NHL spotlight, left a lasting impression on those who played with and against him.
The thoughts of everyone here at Hockey Unplugged are with Voce's family and friends during this difficult time. Voce's passing is a reminder of the close-knit nature of the hockey community and the enduring bonds formed through the sport.
