Veteran forward Ryan Lasch has signed with French club Rouen ahead of the new campaign. The 39-year-old American arrives from Vålerenga in Norway after a long career in Sweden and Finland.
Rouen announced the signing of Lasch on July 13. He produced 44 points in 39 games with Vålerenga last season.
Lasch previously spent two years with Pelicans in Finland's Liiga. He left Frölunda in 2023 after winning two Swedish championships with the club.
The American also played for Södertälje and Växjö during his SHL career. Rouen described him as the top scorer in Champions Hockey League history and a reference in European hockey.
