The Kelowna Rockets have released overage forward Turner McMillen.
Per the WHL rules, each team is only allowed three overage (20-year-old) players. With team captain Gabriel Szturc returning to the team recently, the Rockets had to make the decision to release McMillen.
Jackson Desouza and Dylan Wightman are the other 20-year olds on the team along with Szturc.
