JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Icemen, ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Buffalo Sabres and the American Hockey League’s Rochester Americans, announced that the team has agreed to terms with forward Chris Grando for the 2024-25 season.

Grando returns to the Icemen after a productive rookie campaign last season where he registered 46 points (15g-31a) in 69 games, earning the Icemen’s Rookie of the Year Award, an honor chosen by his teammates.  Grando also collected a goal and an assist in seven playoff appearances during the 2024 Kelly Cup Playoffs.

Grando initially joined the Icemen in March of 2023 after wrapping up his senior season at Arizona State University. He recorded nine points (4g-5a) in 15 appearances with the Icemen that spring.  The 25-year-old played three seasons at Arizona State and two seasons at Boston College recording 64 points (26g-38a) in five collegiate seasons from 2017-23.
