The Atlanta Thrashers have re-assigned left wing Michael Forney from the Chicago Wolves to the ECHL's Gwinnett Gladiators.

FORNEY has been held scoreless in three games with the Wolves this season. He has posted 10 goals, 11 assists and 21 points in 50 outings with Gwinnett during his professional debut this year.

The 21-year-old forward was selected by the Atlanta Thrashers with their third choice, 80th overall, in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft and spent last season with the Green Bay Gamblers (USHL), where he paced that squad with 60 points (26G, 34A) in 59 outings.

The Thief River Falls, Minn., native also spent two seasons (2006-08) at the University of North Dakota (WCHA), where he tallied two assists and 12 penalty minutes in 19 games.

The Wolves return to action when they host the Toronto Marlies at the Allstate Arena on Fri., March 12 at 7:30 p.m. For more information, or tickets to the home games, call 1-800-THE-WOLVES or visit chicagowolves.com.
