He added another goal and three assists in the Brahmas\u2019 eight-game playoff run last spring.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to his time with the Brahmas, Sirota played over 50 games for the Czech Republic, spent a full season with the USHL&#8217;s Cedar Rapids RoughRiders, and was listed on NHL Central Scouting&#8217;s rankings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maine is adding a defenseman mid-season from the NAHL (photo: Lone Star Brahmas).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":120,"featured_media":110820,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"coauthors":[901],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
