“The limited membership is conditioned on Hicks Cedar Park, LLC completing the purchase of an AHL franchise within one year,” AHL President and CEO David Andres said .
“This is an exciting day for the Texas Stars, even though this formal awarding of an AHL franchise had been anticipated,” Texas Stars President Rick McLaughlin said. “We’d like to thank the American Hockey League and its group of owners (for) helping make the Texas Stars a reality. The entire area of Cedar Park and Greater Austin has embraced us and we are looking forward to playing hockey in just over five months.”
The team will hold a formal press conference on April 29th. Check this site for updates later this week.
