The Cranbrook Bucks have acquired future considerations from the Weyburn Red Wings of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League in exchange for 2001-born defenseman Nick Dobson.

Dobson, who’s from Enniskillen, GBR, had a goal and an assist in 16 games with the Bucks during the 2020-21 BC Hockey League season.

He also played six games with the Waywayseecappo Wolverines of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League this past season as well as one game with Creston Valley of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League.

The trade represents a return to Weyburn for Dobson, who had 13 points in 43 games with the Red Wings as a rookie in 2019-20.
