The Kalamazoo Wings have made a major addition to their roster with the signing of forward Todd Skirving for the 2025-26 season. Skirving, 33, is coming off an injury-shortened season with the Reading Royals, where he put up 11 goals and eight assists for 19 points. Despite the injury-shortened season, Skirving won the 2024-25 ECHL Community Service Award. This is a massive signing for the K-Wings as they get a player with plenty of experience, as well as a player who will play a significant role in the Kalamazoo community as a whole. Don’t be surprised if Skirving is wearing a letter for the K-Wings come opening night. He’s worn the “C” with Reading last season. Skrving wore both a “C” and an “A” during his time with the Growlers.

Skirving also played in one game at the AHL level with the Toronto Marlies.
“I’m excited for the opportunity with the Kalamazoo Wings and eager to get started,” Skirving said. “I look forward to meeting my new teammates, the coaching staff, the fans and experiencing everything the city has to offer. It’s motivating to join such a strong group of returning players with a shared goal of bringing the Kelly Cup to Kalamazoo.”
