Before joining the Cougars, Fairlie spent the 2018-19 season with the Okanagan Hockey Academy of the Canadian Sport School Hockey League (CSSHL) where he had a .906 save percentage in 19 games played.
“With the uncertainty regarding the access to affiliate players this season, I decided that we should carry three goaltenders,” said general manager Mike Hawes.
“It isn’t unlike what they do in NCAA Hockey.”
The Spruce Kings pre-season schedule continues October 23 in Merritt against the Centennials.
