Trades, Trades and More Trades

It's been a while since I've been on here but a lot has happened since.

The Portage Terriers beat La Ronge to win the Anavet Cup, Pembrooke wins the RBC Cup, Stanley Cup playoffs in full swing and they haven't disappointed and finally my wise older sister tied the knot on April 30th it was a great wedding to be at and I'm not gonna lie I kind of shed a tear at the ceremony and of course we ate and ate and drank it was a great time and I guess the pressure is on me now being the last of my family without the ring on the finger ha!

Well onto Sports again things are starting to finalize for the Humboldt Broncos as they try to do what many host teams for RBC haven't in the past.... Win as the host venue Weyburn was the last host to win it, hmmm an SJHL team won it last as a host interesting.

Clarke Breitkreuz and Robbie Cholfi are now Humboldt Broncos from the Buzzeo/Boyer trade, that announcement was made earlier then Dean Brockman wanted to but I think Don Chesney wanted to get it out of the way so he could start building his team for the 2011-12 season.

Ryan Marshall of the Swan Valley Stampeders is now a Bronco to complete the Nick Keller trade as well he played with Breitkreuz at the World Junior A Challenge and recently the Broncos got Matthew Backhouse from the Dauphin Kings to complete the Riley Gillies deal.

Dean has a couple more trades to finalize before he's done or does anything else he has futures from Kindersley and Sudbury for the Spencer Braaten and Kenton Valliant deals. I have no idea what will come from Sudbury my network isn't that strong... Yet but from Kindersley it could be interesting the rumors say Taylor Duzan which would be a sick pick-up kind of a Logan Herauf type player but faster as Daniel Fink says he's a ninja on skates. Or will Andrew Herle of PA be cut and moved to Junior A he had 17 points last season so chances could be good.

There is one other option for the Broncos in that trade with the Klippers and take straight cash to buy a goaltender from somewhere because they need one Matt Hrynkiw will be the guy just not this year.

As for the Melfort Mustangs they completed the Brayden Metz and Cody Hanson deals and going the other way Jesse Mireau, Sean Aschim and Lee Christensen go with Levi Cable to Melville but as Jamie Fiesel said it was a 4 for 4 trade so Mustang fans chill this isn't a bad deal as Gavin Holcomb will have Lane Schiedl from the Regina Pats maybe depending what happens there and also Taylor Fauchoux who is a journeyman in the BCHL and AJHL so I'm thinking Taylor will play with the Mustangs this season.

As for the Nipawin Hawks they have completed the Brent Rememda and Jonathan Ceci trades as the Black and Gold get Justin Waskewitch from the Bruins, I love this deal Waskewitch as Doug Johnson said is a point per game guy, he plays with and edge and I think on the power play with two players with absolute bullets in Tyler Paslawski and now Waskewitch great pick-up.

Also getting one of Yorkton's top list guys in Alex Laird from the Swift Current Legionnaires, you know this kid will get some time up with the big club unless he plays as a 17 year, Hawks captain Tanner Dusyk did.

I'll have an interview with Lee Christensen up in a little bit.
