The West Kelowna Warriors have traded 2001-born defenseman Bryden Sinclair to the OCN Blizzard of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League.

The deal completes future considerations from the Feb. 19 trade that saw the Peguis, MB product join the Warriors. Sinclair finished the BC Hockey League pod season with a pair of assists in 17 games for West Kelowna.

He also had one assist in one game with the Blizzard in 2020-21. Sinclair actually started the season with the Maryland Black Bears of the North American Hockey League and played one game.

Sinclair is committed to the University of Maine for this September.
