Cranbrook, BC --  Jeff Chynoweth, General Manager of the Kootenay ICE Hockey Club today announced the Club has traded 20-year-old Defenseman Tanner Faith to the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for a conditional 5th round pick in the 2016 WHL Bantam Draft.

"With seven 1995-born players on our roster, difficult decisions had to be made and this transaction is no exception. Moose Jaw is getting a quality person in Tanner Faith, who has untapped potential as a player. We wish Tanner all the very best with the Warriors and thank him for his contributions to our Hockey Club," added Chynoweth.

Tanner Faith was a second round selection (33rd overall) in the 2010 WHL Bantam Draft; in 88 career regular-season games with the ICE he amassed 15 points (3-12-15) and 75 penalty minutes. Faith was selected in the 5th Round, 139th overall by the Minnesota Wild in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Including long-term injuries and players at NHL Training Camps, the ICE are now carrying 27 players (three Goaltenders, ten Defensemen and 14 Forwards).
