Portland Winterhawks News Release


Portland, Ore. - The Portland Winterhawks Hockey Club today announced the reassignment of goaltender Nick Avakyan, 19, to the Whitecourt Wolverines of the Alberta Junior Hockey League.

The move brings the Winterhawks' active roster to 23 players (13 forwards, seven defensemen, three goalies).

Avakyan joined the Winterhawks via trade on Dec. 3, 2023, after spending the first two full seasons of his career with the Tri-City Americans. The Glendale, Calif. native appeared in 17 games for Portland and posted career-best numbers in that span, including 12 wins, a 3.20 GAA and .895 save percentage. Avakyan also earned his first WHL shutout on Dec. 31, 2023, as he blanked the Vancouver Giants in a 14-save performance.

Avakyan is eligible to be recalled by the Winterhawks once Whitecourt's season ends.
