ALLEN, TX – The Allen Americans, ECHL affiliate of the Minnesota Wild, and partner Globe Life, are proud to announce the signing of forward Corey Durocher to a contract for the 20-21 season.

“I’m excited to be back with the Americans,” Durocher noted. “After an unfortunate ending to last season, I can’t wait to be back with the boys and finish off what we started last year.”

In 44 games with Allen in 19-20, he had nine goals and 14 assists for 23 points. The Ottawa, Ontario resident turned 28 years old this past May. The 6-foot-3, and 210 pound forward turned pro in 2016 after four seasons at Carleton University (OUAA).
