The Tahoe Knight Monsters have acquired defenseman Louka Henault from the Fort Wayne Komets in exchange for future considerations. Henault, 25, will join his third team this season after putting up one assist in 14 games with the Jacksonville Icemen and Fort Wayne Komets. He has not played since February 28th. This is a solid move for the Knight Monsters, who add some experience to their backend. Henault joins a rotating Knight Monsters blueline that has seen 14 different defensemen dress for Tahoe.
