“We are excited to have Ryan (Gagnon) back in Allen,” noted Americans Head Coach B.J. Adams. He’s been a leader on every team he’s been a part of, and his physical style and leadership will be relied upon this season.”
Ryan Gagnon returns for his third season in North Texas. The 6-foot-2, and 195-pound defenseman played in 48 games last year for the Americans.
He finished fourth overall on the team last season in plus/minus with a +5. He was one of two players to play in all 72 games during his rookie campaign (22-23).
