Colton Yellow Horn (born May 5, 1987) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player who currently plays for the Allen Americans of the CHL.
Playing career[]
Yellow Horn played major junior beginning in 2003–04 in the Western Hockey League (WHL) with the Lethbridge Hurricanes and Tri-City Americans. In five seasons play in the league, he consistently scored beyond a point-per-game pace. In 2007–08, he tallied a league-leading 48 goals and a major junior career-high 97 points (third in league scoring) with the Americans[1] and was named to the WHL West First All-Star Team.[2] Despite Yellow Horn's offensive production as a junior, he went undrafted by an NHL team.
In 2008–09, Yellow Horn turned pro, going overseas to Austria to play for EC Red Bull Salzburg of the Erste Bank Eishockey Liga (EBEL). On January 28, 2009, however, he moved back to North America mid-season, signing with the Elmira Jackals of the minor league ECHL.[3] On October 28, 2009, Yellow Horn was traded to the Stockton Thunder.
