The Bruins have completed their deal with the Portage Terriers, finalizing the trade of 20-year-old forward Chris Daniels to the MJHL club today.
Daniels, a Winnipeg native, had a strong pre-season and has two goals on the year, but it was a case of having too many forwards and not enough ice time, especially with so many talented youngsters with the potential to be impact players in the SJHL.
The deal now looks like this: 1991 G Shea Cooper and 1991 F Chris Daniels to Portage for 1991 D Josh Dufresne and futures.
Dufresne is playing with the Briercrest Clippers, but Keith said Friday that "we might be able to recruit him" and "we can dictate when that happens."
(You'll remember the confusion on Friday when I originally reported that two players were going to Portage... this is the other shoe.)
The Bruins are now down to 14 forwards, eight defencemen and two goalies for a total of 24 cards.
