Spruce Kings make series of transactions at the trade deadline

Some minor shuffling of the deck was completed by the Prince George Spruce Kings on trade deadline day.

PG dealt 19-year-old blueliner James Bohn to the Cowichan Valley Capitals in exchange for future considerations.

Another deal saw the BCHL’s most northern franchise acquire 19-year-old forward Luke German from the AJHL’s Camrose Kodiaks for Logan Lorenz.

German suited up in 33 games for the Kodiaks contributing eight goals and seven assists.

In addition, the Spruce Kings added fellow defenceman Adam Leitch to the roster for the remainder of the year.

The 17-year-old has spent this season with the Ridge Meadows Flames of the Pacific Junior Hockey League.

Leitch recorded 16 points in 19 games prior to the call-up.

Meanwhile, Aaron Trotter was named the BCHL’s First Star of the Week.

He posted his first shutout of the season during a 5-0 road win against the Cranbrook Bucks.

The Spruce Kings welcome the West Kelowna Warriors on Wednesday from the RMCA.

Puck drop is at 7pm.
