Who owns wichita thunder

I'm looking forward to many successful seasons on and off the ice for years to come. Ramsay, 50, was introduced at a press conference earlier this afternoon. Before that, he was the bench boss of the Tulsa Oilers from , where he compiled a record in regular season games. Bruce is very passionate, has a wealth of championship experience and will no doubt work very hard through his many connections to put a solid team on the ice.

More importantly, I think he will be a well-respected ambassador for the city of Wichita. A native of Dryden, Ontario, Ramsay returns to a place that he called home during his playing career.

He played for the Thunder during the season, recording 35 points 11g, 24a and racked up penalty minutes. For Rodney, please call Sections U. Science Technology Business U. Press release content from Globe Newswire. The AP news staff was not involved in its creation.

Second-year Thunder coach Kevin McClelland said he was excited about the opportunity for the team to be under local ownership.

The Thunder moved to the 15,seat Intrust Bank Arena last year and concluded its first season there with an appearance in the Central Hockey League playoffs.
