Raiders start deadline day with Stallard acquisition

Jan 10, 2017 | 10:24 AM

The Prince Albert Raiders have started out the trade deadline day with a bang.

Despite currently being in last place, the Raiders added 19-year-old Jordy Stallard from the Calgary Hitmen and seventh rounder in 2017 in exchange for 18-year-old Luke Coleman and a fourth rounder in 2018. That fourth round pick was originally acquired from the Edmonton Oil Kings in the Trey Fix-Wolansky deal.

Stallard has eight goals and 27 points in 32 games this year. That is immediately second on the Raiders in scoring behind only Simon Stransky.

Coleman had a solid start to the season with five goals in his first 14 games, but after recovering from an upper-body injury, Coleman finished his Raider tenure with two goals and two assists in his last 25 games.

Stallard’s acquisition is the Raiders’ 16^th trade this season. They also acquired Brayden Pachal from the Victoria Royals on Monday for Prince Albert product Loch Morrison.
