T-Birds Acquire Garan Magnes from Oil Kings
January 10, 2016 - Western Hockey League (WHL)
Seattle Thunderbirds News Release
KENT - Seattle Thunderbirds general manager Russ Farwell today announced the team has acquired left wing Garan Magnes from the Edmonton Oil Kings for a seventh round selection in the 2017 Bantam Draft.
"With the injury to Owen Seidel we needed to add a forward to our team as we headed into the run to the playoffs," said Farwell. "Magnes is a versatile forward who can step into all lines as needed which is very valuable down the stretch and in playoffs."
This season Magnes has one goal and one assist in 18 games with the Oil Kings. In 61 career games with the Oil Kings Magnes has two goals and four assists for six points.
The T-Birds play back-to-back games in Prince George against the Cougars on Tuesday and Wednesday next week. They are back at ShoWare Center on Friday, January 15, to take on the Regina Pats.
T-Birds single game tickets for the 2015-16 season are available online at the T-Birds website and at the ShoWare Center box office. The ShoWare Center Box Office is open Monday through Friday 10 am to 5 pm Saturday game days at 10 am and Sunday game days at noon.
T-Birds season tickets are currently on sale. Season tickets can be purchased by calling the T-Birds office at 253-239-7825.
