McPherson Chooses Hannover
The Hannover Indians (Germany) announced Thursday that it has secured the services of former Rensselaer standout Andrew McPherson for the upcoming season.
The 31-year old center joins Hannover after spending the past two campaigns with Riessersee (Germany). A native of Dauphin, Manitoba, McPherson finished as the third-leading scorer with Riessersee in 2009-10 compiling 20 goals and 47 assists in 57 regular-season games.
McPherson netted 12 goals and added 27 assists in 41 games with Riessersee in 2008-09. Prior to joining Riessersee, McPherson skated one season with Straubing (Germany) and two campaigns with Landsberg (Germany).
Hannover head coach Bernhard Kaminski is confident that
McPherson is the right man: "For the position of the first Row
center, we had several options, including other top people from the
league. It was important that a man in the league brings experience
and leadership qualities. We are convinced that we have met with
Andrew, the right choice."
