Breaking news drops bombshells in Raiderland
Thursday turned out to be a huge breaking news day for the Prince Albert Raiders.
To start it all off late in the morning, the Raiders traded away 20-year-old goaltender Rylan Parenteau to the Tri-City Americans in exchange for 18-year-old Nicholas Sanders and a third round draft choice.
Then moments after details of the Parenteau deal were released, another bombshell dropped in Raiderland. Raiders 20-year-old sniper Reid Gardiner signed an AHL contract on Thursday with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
Including the release of Kolten Olynek on Oct. 5, the Raiders are now left with just two 20 overagers on their roster—Austin Glover and Captain Tim Vanstone.
