North Iowa Outlaws News Release
The North Iowa Outlaws have struck a deal with the Alaska Avalanche, sending forwards Brooks DeZellar and Kyle Politz north for Kevin Anger and Larry Kincaid. The first place Outlaws looking to add another physical player with Kincaid and a solid defenseman in Anger, but had to give up two solid forwards in the process.
The 5'11, 185 Kincaid leaves his hometown of Wasilla, where he spent a season and a half with the Avalanche. The physical forward tallied 14 goals in two seasons, and eight assists, but the big upside to Kincaid is his presence. In two seasons he's racked up 159 penalty minutes, including five fights. The Outlaws, who are known more for their offense, play very physical and the addition of Kincaid will add to an already strong checking line.
Anger, who started the year with the Southern Minnesota Express before being traded to Alaska, has four points on the season in 22 games. The forward from Eau Claire, WI adds size to the blue line. The 6'2, 200 lb defenseman gives North Iowa another experienced play in front of a solid goaltending trio.
The Outlaws, currently first in the Central Division, are looking to remain perfect as they head on the road to Bismarck this weekend. North Iowa is perfect against the Cats this season, winning all 4 prior meetings, with four more games in a row including this weekend.
