KENT, December 3, 2012 — Seattle Thunderbirds general manager Russ Farwell today announced center Tyler Alos has retired from hockey.
“Tyler is a valuable member of our team and will be missed,” said

“It’s been a great four years with the T-Birds,” said Alos. “The fans
and the organization have treated me very well. I am disappointed my
playing career is coming to an end but I am looking forward to helping
the team wherever possible and starting to learn the game from a
coaching perspective.”
