Allen Americans News Release
Allen, Texas -Allen Americans Head Coach and GM Steve Martinson announced today that forward Alex Lavoie has been loaned to the Oklahoma City Barons of the American Hockey League.
Lavoie leads all CHL rookies in scoring with 16 points (5 goals and 11 assists.) He is 5th overall in the league in scoring, as well as leading the Americans in points.
"Alex made a strong impression when he attended the Barons training camp and now it's paying off," said Allen Head Coach Steve Martinson. "Our motto is pretty simple, if you're good enough to play in the AHL and you're in Allen, you will get an opportunity. Our roster rules make it difficult, but we are committed to our program."
