Andrew Agozzino Announces Retirement After 14‑Year Professional Career
Veteran forward Andrew Agozzino, a Colorado native who spent 14 seasons navigating the professional ranks, announced his retirement from hockey on Tuesday. Across 53 NHL games he recorded 12 points, while his 847 AHL contests yielded 662 points, a testament to a career defined by perseverance and consistency.
Agozzino's journey began in earnest with the Lake Erie Monsters, the AHL affiliate of the Colorado Avalanche, after he signed as an undrafted free agent in March 2013. He made his NHL debut in November 2014 under legendary coach Patrick Roy, appearing in ten games over the next two seasons before returning to the AHL.
A one‑year stint with the Chicago Wolves followed, after which he flourished with the San Antonio Rampage during the 2017‑18 campaign, posting 60 points in 54 games and cementing his status as one of the AHL’s leading scorers.
His NHL résumé later expanded to include brief appearances with the Pittsburgh Penguins, Anaheim Ducks, San Jose Sharks and Ottawa Senators, and he logged two games for the Utah Mammoth in the 2025‑26 season before stepping away from the sport.
Though his time in the NHL was marked by limited scoring, Agozzino’s 12 points (three goals, nine assists) and 662 AHL points reflect a career built on steady contribution and adaptability across nine professional franchises.
