PATS MAKE TRIO OF THURSDAY DEALS

REGINA – The Regina Pats Hockey Club has announced they have acquired a third-round pick in 2019 from the Lethbridge Hurricanes in exchange for 19-year-old forward Scott Mahovlich and an eighth-round pick in 2019.

Mahovlich was acquired by the Pats from the Kamloops Blazers in November of 2017. The product of Abbotsford, B.C. has played in 68 games with Regina, scoring five goals and seven assists.

“We wish Scott all the best in Lethbridge,” said Pats VP of Hockey Operations and GM John Paddock. “He has been a credit to our organization on and off the ice.”

Meanwhile the Pats also announced they have acquired 17-year-old defenceman Tyson Feist and a 10th round pick in 2019 from the Spokane Chiefs in exchange for a fifth-round pick in 2021 and an eighth-round pick in 2019.

Feist (6’3, 177), is in his first full season in the WHL, he has five assists in 25 games with the Chiefs this year. From Dawson Creek, B.C. he also appeared in eight games last season as a 16-year-old.

“We would like to welcome Tyson to Regina,” said Pats VP of Hockey Operations and GM John Paddock. “He is a big body defenceman and a right-handed shot which will be a good addition to our group.”

The Pats further announced they have acquired 17-year-old forward Blake Allan from the Kootenay ICE in exchange for 18-year-old defenceman Marco Creta.

Allan (6’1, 166), was drafted in the third round of the 2016 WHL Bantam Draft by the ICE. From Davidson, Saskatchewan, Allan has appeared in 35 games in his WHL career, scoring once and adding four assists.

“We are excited to add Blake to our group,” said Pats VP of Hockey Operations and GM John Paddock. “We are able to get a year younger in the trade and he will fit in nicely with our forwards.”

Creta has played in 66 games with the Pats, scoring three goals and 11 assists for 14 points.
