The Seattle Thunderbirds have traded goalie Ryan Gilchrist to the Lethbridge Hurricanes for a conditional pick in the 2017 Bantam Draft.
“Ryan had a good camp this year but with the play of Carl Stankowski and the addition of Rylan Toth we wanted to give him a chance to play in the league,” said T-Birds general manager Russ Farwell . “We wish him good luck as he moves on to Lethbridge.”
Gilchrist appeared in three preseason games this season and had 1-0-0-0 record with a .875 save percentage and a 3.51 goals against average.
The T-Birds signed Gilchrist on Feb. 20, 2015.
The T-Birds open the regular season in Portland against the Winterhawks at 7 p.m. Saturday. Their home opener is Saturday, Oct. 1, against the Portland Winterhawks at 7:05 p.m.
Single-game tickets are on sale. Fans can purchase single game tickets online or at the ShoWare Center box office.
