The Dauphin Kings Hockey Club are pleased to announce the signing of 19-year-old power forward, Brendan Hurley. Hurley is a 6’1, 195lbs, forward who played four seasons in the WHL with the Kootenay Ice and the Medicine Hat Tigers. Hurley won a WHL Championship with the Kootenay Ice in 2010/2011.

Nex season Hurley would have seen  limited ice-time, with the Tigers having some pretty packed depth at forward. Nonetheless I wish Hurley all the best with the Kings. I wouldn't be suprised to see the Tigers keeping him on the 50 PPL for a couple months so another team can't grab him for free, because I wouldn't doubt another whl team with limited forward depth would love to have him.
