Andy Andreoff is a 30-goal scorer for the first time in his career, potting 31 goals in 60 games this season to bolster offense for the Bridgeport Islanders. The alternate captain leads all players in goals in the American Hockey League during his 12th professional season. He's producing points in bunches while providing the leadership necessary for Bridgeport to maintain their playoff position.
Head Coach Brent Thompson made strong remarks about Andreoff, who leads the team in goals and ranks second in points with 55. The coach compared his style of play to the on-ice qualities of the New York Islanders' captain.
"He's our version of Anders Lee," Thompson said of Andreoff's on-ice characteristics. "He's dangerous at the net front and he's strong on the puck."
