Woollard is the franchise leader in games played (532), points (400), goals (178), shots (1287), game winning goals (23) and powerplay goals (50). The Brahmas qualified for the CHL Playoffs for a fourth consecutive season. Other returnees include Ross Rouleau, Jim Burichin and Alex Curran.
The first 500 fans in attendance will receive a free Brahmas T-shirt, and televisions will be set up throughout the NYTEX Sports Centre and in ZuRoma for those wishing to match hockey and baseball together. "We are excited to open up our season and we look forward to sports fans throughout DFW to enjoy a multiple sports night," said Mike Barack, President, Texas Brahmas.
