Thursday, Sep. 13th, 2012
The Chicago Wolves have reached a one-year affiliation agreement with the Kalamazoo Wings of the ECHL for the 2012-13 season.
"We are pleased and honored to begin a new relationship with the Kalamazoo Wings," said Wolves general manager WENDELL YOUNG. "We are looking forward to our players learning and developing under Kalamazoo head coach Nick Bootland. I also think the three-team combination of Vancouver, Chicago, and Kalamazoo will be a strong one that works in unison to benefit all three organizations."
The Kalamazoo Wings play at the 5,113-seat Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo, located in southwest Michigan. The K-Wings have won three consecutive division titles since joining the ECHL at the start of the 2009-10 season. Kalamazoo posted a 38-26-2-6 record last year and reached the Conference Finals in the 2012 Kelly Cup playoffs. The K-Wings also are affiliated with the National Hockey League's Vancouver Canucks.
