BLADES/RAIDERS SWAP

SASKATOON, SK – The Saskatoon Blades and General Manager Lorne Molleken are pleased to announce that they have acquired 1993-born defenceman Dylan Busenius and a pair of draft picks from the Prince Albert Raiders.

In exchange for Busenius and the draft picks, the Blades have traded 1993-born left-winger Collin Valcourt and 1995-born defenceman Ryan Coghlan to the Raiders. The picks incoming to Saskatoon are 2nd and 5th round selections, both in the upcoming 2014 WHL Bantam Draft.

“Dylan is a veteran in this league and someone that we’ve seen grow and mature as a player over the last number of years,” said Blades general manager Lorne Molleken. “We feel that his experience, skillset and leadership abilities will be a great fit for our young hockey club and we look forward to having him join us in Saskatoon.”
