TC Ams Release 3 20-Year-Olds, Announce Schedules for Fall
Coming off the strangest season in franchise and WHL history, the Tri-City Americans over the last week have made some announcements.
First, 3 20-year-old players will not be on the roster for camp this summer. June16th, the Americans said Booker Daniel, Edge Lambert, and Bryan McAndrews were all released by the club.
WHL teams can only carry 3 20's, as they are called in the league, overage players, and they still have several others on the roster. Collectively, the three combined to play 48 games for the team.
