Tyson Feist inks ATO with AHL’s Syracuse Crunch

The Syracuse Crunch announced yesterday that they have signed Kelowna Rockets captain Tyson Feist to an amateur tryout.

Feist, 21, appeared in 187 WHL regular-season games over four seasons between the Spokane Chiefs, Regina Pats and Rockets, posting  72 points (19G, 53A) and 206 penalty minutes.

This season he set career bests, posting 39 points (15G, 24A), 78 penalty minutes and a +25 plus/minus rating over 65 games.

The Dawson Creek, B.C. product was acquired from the Pats in January 2020. He was named the Rockets 26th captain in franchise history prior to the start of the 2021-22 season.
