NORTH CHARLESTON, SC – The South Carolina Stingrays, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Washington Capitals and AHL’s Hershey Bears, announced on Wednesday that defenseman Chaz Reddekopp has signed a professional tryout contract (PTO) with Tucson Roadrunners of the AHL.

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound blueliner is in his fourth season of professional hockey, splitting time between the AHL and ECHL throughout his career. The 7th round pick of the Los Angeles Kings in the 2015 NHL Draft played a three game stint with the AHL’s Ontario Reign during the 2016-17 season before returning to the Victoria Royals to finish out his junior hockey career.
