KALAMAZOO- The Kalamazoo Wings have completed a trade with the Evansville IceMen for the ECHL rights of Patrick Kennedy, who is currently in the American Hockey League with the Utica Comets.

A dynamic player, Kennedy has posted 21 points (9 goals, 12 assists) in 25 games this season with the IceMen. Kennedy has also played in five games this year for the Comets.

In return for Kennedy, the IceMen will receive future considerations and forward Ray Kaunisto, who has recorded 14 points (5 goals, 9 assists) in 43 games this season.

The K-Wings will return home tonight, Wednesday, March 11th, with a 7 p.m. face-off versus the Fort Wayne Komets. This evening is the rescheduled game that was originally scheduled on March 7th that was postponed due to unplayable ice conditions.
