AHL features 172 CJHL alumni on current team rosters

CALGARY, Alta. – With the American Hockey League’s 2019-20 campaign nicely underway, you’ll find 172 alumni from the Canadian Junior Hockey League on current rosters throughout the AHL.

All 31 AHL clubs feature multiple players, who took to the ice in at least one CJHL contest during their junior careers, on their teams.

Both the Stockton Heat, the AHL affiliate of the NHL’s Calgary Flames, and the Iowa Wild, whose parent organization is the Minnesota Wild, boast 10 CJHL alumni each to lead the way in this category.

Meanwhile, the Rochester Americans (Buffalo Sabres) and Springfield Thunderbirds (Florida Panthers) each have nine ex-CJHLers in their respective line-ups.

The following are the 172 CJHL alumni presently on AHL rosters: (As of Oct. 18, 2019)
