Dallas/Allen, Texas – The Allen Americans, ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Ottawa Senators, clinched a playoff spot on Saturday night with a 6-3 win over the Tulsa Oilers.
A balanced Allen attack saw six different players find the back of the net. Kris Myllari (11), Colby McAuley (25), Bennett MacArthur (11), James Hardie (15), Kam Kielly (11), and Hank Crone (17) all made the scoresheet in the final regular season home game.
“We are playing our best hockey of the season,” noted Head Coach Chad Costello. “We have a season-high seven-game point streak with one more to go in the regular season.”
The Americans play the final regular season game on Sunday afternoon in Tulsa. Game time is 4:05 PM CDT.
The Americans will open the postseason on the road with Games 3,4, and 5 (if necessary), at CUTX Event Center. Tickets will go on sale Monday morning at 10:00 AM
