Jerome Flaake (born March 2, 1990 in Guben) is a German professional ice hockey left winger who currently plays for the Hamburg Freezers in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (German Ice Hockey League).[1][2]

Playing career

Flaake was drafted 130th overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. The Leafs used the Florida Panthers' 5th round choice, which they received in sole compensation for defenseman Wade Belak in a trade on February 26, 2008.

He formerly wore number 90 for Kölner Haie (Cologne Sharks) of the German Hockey League. Two of his four goals for Köln in the 2008–09 season have been game winning goals.[3] Flaake signed a two-year contract with the Hamburg Freezers for the 2010 - 2012 seasons on March 30, 2010.

According to Cologne general manager Rodion Pauels, Flaake's strengths lie in his skating abilities, intelligence on the ice as well as his nose for the net.[4]
