TULSA, OK — The Tulsa Oilers, proud ECHLaffiliate of the National Hockey League’s St. Louis Blues, announced Thursdaythe signing of forward Ian McNulty for the 2019-20 season. 

McNulty,26, returns to Tulsa after a successful rookie campaign, tallying 31 points(14G, 17A) in 63 regular season games. McNulty was sixth on the team in goals,PIM and shots on goal, and his three multi-goal games were tied for the secondmost on the team. 

“Ian came to us from Canadian college as a real unknown,” head coach Rob Murray said. “He quickly showed me that he belonged in pro hockey. He’s a very versatile player that can play on the wing or in the middle, and he’s got great Hockey IQ. He had a good rookie campaign, and now that he has some experience under his belt, I believe he will be an even better player this year.”

The 6’0,187 lbs. forward also appeared in 19 of the Oilers’ 20 playoff games, playingon a line tasked with shutting down the opposition’s best players.

“I’mreturning this season for a number of reasons,” McNulty said. “Murrayre-signing made my decision a lot easier. We have a great group of guys on theteam, and I think we can pick up where we left off last season. Now that I’mnot a rookie, I look to have a bigger role on the team, which comes with moreresponsibility as a player. I’m very excited to get back to Tulsa and getgoing on the upcoming season.”
