Fournier’s big Allen debut: Americans newly acquired forward Stefan Fournier made his Americans debut on Friday night and contributed a goal and an assist in the Americans 8-5 win over Utah. Fournier assisted on Grant Hebert’s sixth of the season in the first period, and then added his 8th of the year in the third period. The Americans traded for Fournier rights from Wichita last week in exchange for forward Gavin Gould.
