SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - The American Hockey League announced today that Texas Stars goaltender Remi Poirier has been named the league's Goaltender of the Month for March.
Poirier, 24, went 7-2-0 last month with a 2.27 goals-against average, and a .934 save percentage to earn the monthly award for the second time in his career, becoming the first Stars goaltender to do so.

He set a Texas franchise record on Mar. 25 at San Jose when he made 33 saves in a 3-2 triumph for his 65th career win with the Stars.
The Farnham, Quebec native was drafted by Dallas in the sixth round (185th overall) of the 2020 NHL Draft.
The AHL also announced today that Henderson forward Raphael Lavoie was named the Player of the Month and Silver Knights forward Trevor Connelly was chosen as Rookie of the Month in March.
