Forward Adam Hughesman Returns to Reading

Reading, PA – The Reading Royals of the ECHL, affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers of the NHL and the Lehigh Valley Phantoms of the AHL, today announced that forward Adam Hughesman has been released from his PTO with the Manchester Monarchs of the AHL and has been returned to the Royals.

Hughesman, who was loaned to the Monarchs by the Royals on January 12, scored in his first stint ever in the AHL when he notched the first goal of the game in Manchester’s 5-4 shootout loss to the Worcester Sharks on Friday, January 16. In three games with the Monarchs, Hughesman (1g-0a=1pt, 0 pims), a third year pro from Winnipeg, Manitoba, recorded six shots on goal and played to a collective plus-2 (+2).
