Springfield, MA – The Springfield Falcons, proud members of the American Hockey League, announced today that left wing Rob Schremp has been named to the PlanetUSA AHL All-Star Roster and he will take part in the 2008 AHL All-Star Classic presented by Reebok on January 27-28 in Binghamton, NY.
Schremp currently leads the Falcons in scoring this season with nine goals and 30 assists for 39 points in 37 games.
