Kelowna Rockets acquire Hurricane

Lethbridge Hurricanes

The Kelowna Rockets announced that they have acquired 1998-born forward Ryan Bowen from the Lethbridge Hurricanes in exchange for an eighth round draft pick in the 2019 WHL Bantam Draft.

“We traded for Bowen’s rights and we’re working to see if we can get him here, but it looks like he may play junior A this year,” said Bruce Hamilton, President/GM of the Rockets. “But he’s a prospect that we will certainly have as an affiliate player and we’ll try to get him in eventually.”

In 143 career games split between the Moose Jaw Warriors and the Lethbridge Hurricanes Bowen recorded 21 goals and 36 asssists for 57 points. Bowen also collected two goals and an assist in 23 playoff games(9GP with Moose Jaw, 14GP with Lethbridge).

Ryan is the older brother of Ethan Bowen, Kelowna’s second round draft pick in the 2017 WHL Bantam Draft.
