The native of Macomb, Michigan, played four seasons at the University of Miami of Ohio from 2004-2008, with his best season coming in 05-06 when he scored 24 points in 39 games.

"I had two great years in Allen," said Nino Musitelli, on returning to the Americans for a second stint. "This is a great organization and I'm looking forward to October, and playing in Coach Martinson's system."

Musitelli will begin his third professional season this October. The Americans open their 4th season in the CHL this year.
