ECHL: Tahoe Knight Monsters Transactions | 10/7/2025

The Tahoe Knight Monsters have signed forward Kevin Wall for the 2025-26 season and have received forward Devon Paliani from the Henderson Silver Knights. Goaltender Just Sand, who was signed yesterday as an EBUG, has also been released. Tahoe now has 13 forwards and seven defenseman on their preseason roster.

Kevin Wall

Wall, 25, joins Tahoe after spending the last two seasons in the AHL with the Milwaukee Admirals. In 97 games with the Admirals, he put up eight goals and 12 assists for 20 points. Prior to going pro, the Rochester, NY, native spent four seasons in the NCAA with Penn State. During his four seasons with the Nitney Lions, Wall put up 43 goals and 43 assists for 86 points.

Before playing in the NCAA, Wall spent one season in juniors, playing in the BCHL with the Chilliwack Chiefs. He had 31 goals and 33 assists for 64 points in 49 games with the Chiefs. He led all rookies in scoring and was named to the BCHL All-Rookie Team and BCHL First Team All-Star.

Devon Paliani

Paliani, 28, was involved in a four-team deal in September, which sent him to the Iowa Heartlanders before he signed an AHL deal with the Henderson Silver Knights. In 72 games last season with the Savannah Ghost Pirates, the LaSalle, Ontario native put up 32 goals and 27 assists for 59 points. The 2025-26 season will be the Paliani’s fifth season in the league, as he’s played for five different teams. He’s put up 66 goals and 73 assists for 139 points in 245 career ECHL games. I would expect Paliani to be a big part of the Knight Monsters offense to start the season.
