ANDREW LORD NAMED COACH FOR ECHL ALL-STAR CLASSIC

SHREWSBURY, N.J. – The ECHL announced on Thursday that Andrew Lord of the Greenville Swamp Rabbits has earned the right serve as a coach for the 2024 Warrior/ECHL All-Star Classic presented by Gulfstream, on Monday, Jan. 15, 2024 at Enmarket Arena in Savannah, Georgia. The game will air LIVE exclusively on NHL Network and be streamed via FloHockey

 

In this year’s All-Star event, the host Savannah Ghost Pirates will take on a team of ECHL All-Stars representing the other teams in the League, as well as feature several Skills events which will count as a goal towards the winning Player’s team score. The 2024 ECHL All-Star Skills Competition will take place between periods of the game, with results counting towards the cumulative score. The first two periods of the game will be 5-on-5 while the final period will consist of 3-on-3.

 

Lord receives the coaching honors by virtue of his team having the top winning percentage in their respective conference through games of Dec. 23.

 

Lord, in his fourth season as the club’s coach, has led Greenville to a 20-8-0 record this season. The Swamp Rabbits have advanced to the postseason in each of his three seasons, and last season, he led the team to 40 wins, their most since 2016-17. Prior to joining Greenville, Lord led the Cardiff Devils of the Elite Ice Hockey League to nine separate titles, including three Conference championships, two Challenge Cup championships, two League titles, and two Playoff championships. As the winningest coach in Devils history, he led the team to a 221-75-22 record across his six seasons as head coach. Prior to entering the coaching ranks, Lord enjoyed a lengthy professional hockey career out of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). He spent 10 seasons in the pro ranks, totaling 462 games. His best work as a pro was done in the EIHL, where he scored 173 points in 216 games, all with Cardiff. 

 

The 2024 Warrior/ECHL All-Star Classic presented by Gulfstream will take place on Monday, January 15, 2024, at Enmarket Arena.
