Dec 29, 2010 | 5:21 AM

The Raiders made a huge splash in July pulling the pin on a blockbuster trade.

Ryan Harrison, the 18-year-old forward, was dealt to Medicine Hat for prospect Todd Fiddler, 17 and tough guy Austin Bourhis, 18, and a 4th round draft choice in 2012.

Harrison who had had been a fan favourite at the Art Hauser Centre, asked to be traded after two seasons in Prince Albert. Coach and GM Bruno Campese said Harrison garnered a lot of interest but it was the Tigers that made the best offer.

Campese said the Tigers reluctantly agreed to include Bourhis in the deal, while Fiddler has the potential to put up big numbers in the future.
