Allen, Texas -Allen Americans Head Coach and General Manager Steve Martinson has announced that the club has signed forward Ian Schultz to a new contract for the 2015-2016 season.
Schultz will enter his second season with the Americans, after putting up career numbers in Steve Martinson's high-powered offense in 2014-2015. He had 38 points in 44 regular season games in last year's championship run. He also played in 14 games last season in the American Hockey League for the Iowa Wild.
"Schultz had a comeback year last season," said Americans Head Coach Steve Martinson. "He had great chemistry with Chad Costello and scored big goals for us. Ian is a hard guy to play against."
