Historical Stats from the Archives and More

 

It is back to practice today for the Allen Americans as they prepare for the game against Fort Wayne on Thursday. I will attend practice to get an update and report back in the morning. With not much to write about this morning I thought I would look into the archives for some stats that you might find interesting.

DID YOU KNOW: Reminder: Players overseas have eight more days to decide to return to North America if they wish to play in the ECHL this season. February 15 (3:00 p.m. EST) is the overseas deadline. This week lots of coaches and general managers will be checking in one last time with favorite players in Europe.
