Anthony Francis Voce[1] (October 30, 1980 – July 8, 2024) was an American professional ice hockey player. Voce was the first Philadelphia native to play for the Philadelphia Flyers organization.[2]

Playing career

Voce played college hockey at Boston College. In his four years there, he recorded 90 goals and 77 assists to go along with 207 penalty minutes. As a senior, he finished second in the nation in goals in the NCAA, and for the second time (also as a sophomore) was awarded the Norman F. Bailey Award as team MVP. In addition, he was named to the All-Hockey East First Team and was an AHCA First Team All-American.

After being signed as an undrafted free agent by his hometown team, the Philadelphia Flyers, he was sent to their minor league affiliate, the Philadelphia Phantoms.[2] Voce was a member of the 2004–05 Calder Cup winning Philadelphia Phantoms team. He became one of the team's top goal-scorers, totaling 50 goals in two years as a member of the Phantoms before being loaned to Grand Rapids.[3]

Voce left North America to sign with Ilves of the SM-liiga for the 2007–08 season.[4] He was released after playing five games for them.[5] Three days later, he signed with Grizzlys Wolfsburg of the German Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL).[6]

On March 17, 2008, he signed with the DEL's Straubing Tigers and transferred November 28, 2008 to EC Graz 99ers of the Erste Bank Hockey League.[7] After two weeks in Austria, he was released by the team.[8]

Death

Voce died suddenly on July 8, 2024, at the age of 43.[9][10]
