The Prince George Cougars are making some more preparations before the season gets underway on Friday.
The Cougars have announced they’ve acquired 2008-born goaltender Peyton Shore from the Red Deer Rebels, in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2027 WHL Prospects Draft.
The 18-year-old has spent the last two season in Red Deer, making 38 appearances and earning 11 wins.
“We were looking at adding some experience for our goaltending and Peyton came available,” said Cougars Head Coach and GM Mark Lamb.
Shore, standing 6′ 2″, was originally a fifth-round selection by the Rebels.
The Cougars will open the regular season on Friday against the Penticton Vees at the CN Centre.
