Moose Jaw, Sask. - Lucas Brenton will be making the jump to pro hockey next season.

After helping lead the Moose Jaw Warriors to a WHL Championship this past season, the 21-year-old defenceman has signed with a one-year American Hockey League contract with the Rockford IceHogs, the Chicago Blackhawks' AHL-affiliate.

Brenton played a key role in the Warriors' championship season, finishing with one goal, 17 points and a plus-21 rating while playing in all 68 regular season games.

His size and strength are very noticeable, and we are excited to watch his development during his first professional season," said IceHogs President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Mark Bernard in a media release.

The six-foot-four defenceman added two goals and seven points in 20 playoff games.
