Texas Tornado News Release
The Texas Tornado, in conjunction with the Dallas Stars Alumni Association, are happy to announce that Stars head coach Glen Gulutzan has joined the roster of former professional hockey players playing against the Texas Tornado on March 18th at 5:00 p.m. In his first season as head coach, Gulutzan has led his team to the best record in the Pacific Division, with the Stars currently sitting in third place in the Western Conference. Before coming to Dallas, Gulutzan served as the head coach of both the AHL's Texas Stars and Las Vegas Wranglers of the ECHL. Prior to his coaching experience, Gulutzan enjoyed a seven-season professional hockey career.
Gulutzan joins a roster of Ed Belfour, Joe Nieuwendyk, Jere Lehtinen, and a host of other former pros who will take the ice this Sunday. Three of those players will be available for autographs prior to the game. In addition to Lehtinen, Bob Bassen and Landon Wilson will be signing for the public strictly from 3:00-3:30 p.m. The players will head back to the dressing room at precisely 3:30, so make sure you're in line at Dr Pepper Arena early to get your autographs!
A portion of the ticket proceeds from Sunday's event will be donated to the Dallas Stars Alumni Association, as will the proceeds from a jersey auction following the game. Each player on the pro roster's jersey will be available for bidding while the player will also pose for a picture with the winning bidder. Other promotions include an opportunity to spend a Stars game with Mike Modano in the Dallas Stars Alumni Suite at American Airlines Center.
