T-Birds acquire 19-year-old Warriors forward

10/18/06 - Western Hockey League (WHL) Seattle Thunderbirds

Seattle, October 18, 2006 - Seattle Thunderbirds General Manager Russ Farwell today announced the team has acquired 19-year-old forward Ian McKenzie from the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for a sixth round bantam pick in 2007.

"Ian is a big, physical player that moves pretty well," said Farwell. "We have a young team and he gives us more experience up front."

McKenzie is a 6'4, 205-pound right wing from Weyburn, Saskatchewan. He has played 100 games in four seasons with the Warriors and has registered 15 points on eight goals and seven assists with 96 penalty minutes. The T-Birds take on the Medicine Hat Tigers on Saturday, October 21, at KeyArena at 7:05 p.m. McKenzie should be available to suit up for this game.
