GLENS FALLS – The Adirondack Thunder, proud ECHL affiliate of the New Jersey Devils and Utica Comets, announced that the club has re-signed forward Chase McLane to a standard player contract for the 2026-27 season.
McLane, 26, recorded 18 points (6g, 12a) in his rookie campaign last season with the Thunder and played six playoff games in the first round.
“Chase brings a steadying, highly physical presence to our lineup and fits perfectly with the competitive, work-first brand of hockey we want to play in Glens Falls,” said Head Coach Sylvain Cloutier. “He gives us valuable depth down the middle and is extremely reliable defensively. We’re thrilled to have him back in our lineup.”
Prior to joining the Thunder last season, McLane played his final year of NCAA (D1) hockey in 2024-25 at Colorado College and recorded ten points (5g, 5a) in 33 games. Prior to that, the Trenton, Michigan native played for four years at NCAA (D1) Penn State University and had 29 points (11g, 18a) in 87 games.
Following his final season of junior hockey as the captain of the United States Hockey League’s Tri-City Storm, the 6-foot-2, 201-pound forward was drafted by Nashville Predators in the seventh round (209th overall) in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.
