Allen, Texas – The Allen Americans, proud ECHL affiliate of the Seattle Kraken (NHL), announced today that Chad Costello, has been named the Warrior Hockey, ECHL Player of the Month for January 2022.
Chad Costello had a big month in January with 20 points in 15 games, which included a six-point night against the Tulsa Oilers on January 16th in an 8-0 Allen victory. It is the fourth time in his career he has won the award.
“It’s nice to be recognized by Warrior Hockey and the ECHL, but right now we need wins,” noted Costello. “We had three big ones last weekend against Newfoundland, and now we need to build on that starting tonight. Our goal is to climb up in the standings, and go deep into the playoffs.”
