The West Kelowna Warriors made a trade on Sunday, sending 2001-born forward Holden Kodak to the Truro Bearcats of the Maritime Junior Hockey League for future considerations.
Kodek, who’s from Cloverdale, BC, played 30 games with the Warriors in 2019-20 after being released by the Western Hockey League’s Prince George Cougars in late November. He had five goals and 11 assists during his time in West Kelowna.
The former Canadian Sport School Hockey League MVP has played in 64 career WHL games with the Cougars and Winnipeg Ice, scoring three goals and seven assists during his stint in major junior.

Grizzlies pick up junior A rights to WHL vet Longo
@BCHLGrizzlies acquire playing rights to 20-year-old defenceman Trevor Longo from @drumdragons. Longo split last season between @tigershockey and @WHLGiants of @TheWHL

The Victoria Grizzlies grabbed an insurance policy on Monday with the acquisition of the Canadian Junior Hockey League playing rights to 2000-born defenseman Trevor Longo from the Drumheller Dragons of the Alberta Junior Hockey League.
Longo spent the last 2.5 seasons in the WHL, playing 110 games for the Medicine Hat Tigers before being traded to the Vancouver Giants in December. He played 25 games for the Giants and has 11 goals and 22 assists in his WHL career.
The North Vancouver-raised blueliner played 17 BCHL games for Salmon Arm in 2017-18 and had three assists. Longo could be squeezed out by the Vancouver Giants as they have eight 20-year-olds eligible to return and the WHL only allows each team to carry three.
