PRINCETON, N.J. — The Adirondack Thunder will have one representative at the annual CCM/ECHL All-Star Classic this year, forward Ty Loney.

He also ranks second in the league with seven power-play goals and leads the team with 11 points on the power-play this season, with an additional four assists.
