Former New England Star Andre Nybo has signed a professional hockey contract with the Kongsvinger Knights in Norway.

The Norway native came to the Stars last season after he was recommended to General Manager Dan Fontas by a colleague. Nybo was an offensive force for the Stars, putting up 10 goals and 22 assists for team in 41 games. But he was also a physical force on the ice, standing at 6'0" and 180lbs, unfraid to finish his checks and dig deep in the corners.

Nybo said he appreciates everything the Stars did for his career, and while he could have chosen to play another year of juniors, he could not pass up the chance to play professional hockey in Norway.

The Stars wish Nybo the best of luck next season in Norway.
