Evansville IceMen Leading Scorer Recalled by Albany Devils

After becoming the roster's leading scorer, forward Myles Bell is heading back to the Albany Devils of the AHL after the team exercised their recall rights.

Bell joined the IceMen on loan from the Devils October 24th and quickly made his impression felt with two goals in regulation during his IceMen debut against the Indy Fuel on October 25th, and adding one more in the shootout that same night.

One week later, he recorded his first professional hat trick with three goals against Wheeling on November 7th.

The Calgary, Alberta, Candada native ranks second on the IceMen with 14 points (8 goals, 6 assists) in 18 games, giving him the 15th highest total by an ECHL rookie. His eight goals are fifth best amongst rookies this season.

The IceMen return to the Ford Center Friday and Saturday night to host in-state rivals, the Ft. Wayne Komets. Tickets for both games are available through the Ford Center box office, and online through Ticketmaster.

Coverage of both games begin at 7pm on ESPN Evansville 105.3 and online at ESPNevansville.com.

Saturday's game will feature the annual Teddy Bear Toss for 911 Gives Hope. Bring a stuffed animal to the game and after the IceMen's first goal of the night, toss them on the ice. All donations will be professionally cleaned and turned over to 911 Gives Hope, where they will distribute them to area hospitals for the children spending the holidays in those facilities.
