Pats and Hurricanes involved in blockbuster
It was the first shot across the bow for the Lethbridge Hurricanes. A package of players and picks headed to the Regina Pats in exchange for heavyweight players Jake Leschyshyn and Nick Henry. Leschyshyn is a signed Vegas Golden Knights prospect, and was drafted in the second round of the 2017 NHL Draft. Henry is an unsigned fourth round draft pick of the Colorado Avalanche. The trade certainly makes the Hurricanes more offensively strong. More on the trade can be found HERE.
