The Red Deer Rebels have completed a trade with the Seattle Thunderbirds.

The Rebels have acquired 18-year-old forward Nishaan Parmar from Seattle in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2025 WHL Prospects Draft (via Prince Albert) and a fifth-round pick in the 2026 WHL Prospects Draft (via Swift Current).

Parmar is in his second season in the WHL after being selected by the Thunderbirds in round seven, 148th overall at the 2021 WHL Prospects Draft.
