Cincinnati Cyclones News Release

CINCINNATI, Ohio - The Cincinnati Cyclones, proud affiliate of the NHL's Florida Panthers and Nashville Predators, announced today that goaltender Brian Foster has been reassigned to the club from the San Antonio Rampage of the American Hockey League.

Foster, Florida's fifth-round selection in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft, will make another return to the Cyclones after playing in San Antonio (AHL) and in Florida (NHL) in recent weeks. On February 4, the Pembroke, New Hampshire native made his NHL debut with the Panthers in a 5-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. He made one save on one shot in 4:52 of ice time. Foster became the ninth Cyclone to play a game at hockey's highest level.

With the 2011-12 Cyclones, Foster has posted an 8-1-0-1 record with a 2.47 goals-against average. On December 17, he earned his third-career shutout with 17 saves against Chicago. In 12 appearances with the San Antonio Rampage this year, the 25-year-old has amassed a 4-6-0 record and a 3.64 goals-against average.

Foster and the Cyclones will once again hit the road tomorrow as they visit the Kalamazoo Wings on Valentines Night at 7:00pm. Fans can hear the action of the Tuesday tilt on the Cyclones Radio Network (1050-AM, America One) beginning at 6:45pm.

The Cyclones will return to U.S. Bank Arena Thursday, February 16 when they welcome in the Elmira Jackals for the only time in 2011-12 at 7:30pm. It will be another Thirsty Thursday, with $1 PBR and Miller High Life flowing all night long. Plus, fans are encouraged to wear red apparel for the first-ever Cyclones Red Out!
