Reading, PA - The Reading Royals, proud ECHL affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers and Lehigh Valley Phantoms, announced that they have acquired defenseman Logan Britt and Future Considerations from the Greenville Swamp Rabbits as part of a three-way deal. In this transaction, forward Devon Paliani was sent to the Savannah Ghost Pirates in exchange for forward Brent Pedersen. The Royals then flipped Pedersen to Greenville for Britt and Future Considerations.

Britt, 25, joins Reading for his first full professional season after signing with Greenville to begin his professional career out of the University of North Dakota on April 5th, 2024.

Britt added a point (1a), two penalty minutes and a -1 rating in five Kelly Cup Playoff games with the Swamp Rabbits.

The 6'2", 190-pound, left-shot defenseman totaled 54 points (15g-39a), 88 penalty minutes and a +31 rating in 171 NCAA career games between the Quinnipiac University (2019-21), Sacred Heart University (2021-23) and the University of North Dakota (2023-24). Britt played on two NCAA regular season champion teams with Sacred Heart University (Eastern College Athletic Conference) in 2020-21 and Sioux Falls (National Collegiate Hockey Conference) in 2023-24. He was also selected to the NCAA Atlantic Hockey Association's Second All-Conference Team in 2021-22 with Sacred Heart University.

Prior to the NCAA, Britt played 66 games in the North American Hockey League (NAHL) for the Aberdeen Wings, as well as 63 games in the United States Hockey League (USHL) for the Lincoln Stars and Sioux Falls Stampede (2018-19).
