The Allen Americans traded defenseman Troy Murray to the Florida Everblades for future considerations, Head Coach and General Manager Steve Martinson announced in an Oct. 13 team release.

Murray, a Toronto native, appeared in 21 games for the Americans last season. He recorded one goal and 32 penalty minutes. He has played 238 professional games, spending most of his career at the Single-A level in the SPHL and FPHL.

The move comes after Allen wrapped its preseason with a 5-3 loss to the Tulsa Oilers on Saturday, Oct. 10.

The Americans, the ECHL affiliate of the Ottawa Senators, open the regular season Saturday, Oct. 17, in Tulsa at 7:05 p.m. Home-opening week follows Oct. 29-30 with two games against the Idaho Steelheads at Comerica Center in Frisco. Tickets are available at 972-912-1000.

Editor, Cascadia Wire Network

Roveena Chand Jassal is Surround Sound Media's very first news producer with a vibrant background in magazine and print journalism herself. Starting off in beauty and fashion at Women's Health Magazine and featuring my own mom and friends in an InStyle South Asian beauty traditions feature, I knew I had a passion for shining light on multicultural voices, especially growing up in the Chicago suburbs. After attending fashion shows in Miami and trying out products for Black Friday deals, I had a desire to do more serious reporting, and found myself being the youngest Punjabi Sikh journalist at Toronto Star. It was here where I really felt a connection to the diverse community I serve, from running around on the ground investigating international students being exploited for overpriced housing to amplifying those same students who have been able to find peace and confidence in the city's growing Hip Hop scene. I've had the opportunity to interview major celebrities, government officials, businesses, and creators, but what I enjoy most of all is being a contradicting human being because this truth is what allows me to pick and produce real stories that give a community true knowledge of their contradicting human being selves too.
