GREENVILLE, SC – The Greenville Road Warriors announced today that defenseman Marc-Andre Bourdon has been reassigned to the team by the Philadelphia Flyers from the Adirondack Phantoms of the American Hockey League.
Bourdon, 21, made his professional playoff debut with the Road Warriors in Tuesday night’s 5-2 win over Elmira. He was held without a point, did not take a penalty, and finished with an even plus/minus rating on the night. The second-year pro from St. Hyacinthe, Quebec was reassigned to Adirondack after Game One and played in the Phantoms’ 4-1 win over Albany last night where he registered four penalty minutes. In five regular season games with the Road Warriors Bourdon earned a pair of assists, 14 penalty minutes, and a plus-3 rating.
A third-round draft pick (#67 overall) of the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, Bourdon has spent 107 games with the Phantoms since turning pro in 2009. He produced 19 points (2G, 17A) as a rookie and his 17 assists was second among Phantoms defensemen. The 6-0, 225-pound blueliner added 10 points (1G, 9A) this season and ramped up his physical play. He jumped from 53 penalty minutes as a rookie to 84 in his sophomore campaign.
Bourdon is expected to be in the line up when the Road Warriors take on Elmira in Game Three on Friday night at the BI-LO Center.
Mark your calendars! The Road Warriors return to home ice for Game Three of their quarterfinals series with Elmira on Friday, April 8. Start time is set for 7:35 p.m. at the BI-LO Center. Pre-game festivities begin at 5:00 p.m. with a block party on the plaza outside of the Charter Business Entrance. Free food from Quaker Steak and Lube, as well as half-priced beer, will be available for anyone holding a ticket to the game and RetroVertigo will be playing a free concert. Individual tickets start as low as $9 and can be purchased at the BI-LO Center Box Office or any Ticketmaster outlet. Groups of 10 or more get discounted tickets and preferred seating based on availability. Group outings can be booked by calling 864-674-PUCK.
