The Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees, proud affiliates of the Florida Panthers and San Antonio Rampage, announced on Tuesday that they have signed forward Jason Dixon. Dixon started the season with the Allen Americans and previously played for Head Coach Terry Ruskowski in Laredo during the 2008-09 season.
