Vanroboys Traded To BCHL’s Spruce Kings

Lucas Vanroboys will finish the BCHL season with a new team after being traded by the Cowichan Valley Capitals to the Prince George Spruce Kings.

In 27 games this season with Cowichan Valley, Vanroboys has 7 goals and 7 assists.

“Going in to the deadline I was hoping to add two forwards to our roster. After a few busy days we were able to accomplish that,” said Spruce Kings General Manager Mike Hawes in a news release, following the acquisition of Vanroboys and forward Nick Wilson.

“Lucas is a player that has been on our radar for a while. He is big strong player who plays up the middle and is good in both ends of the ice. He will complement our forward group very well.”

Last season with the Nanaimo Clippers of the BCHL, the Thamesville product had 24 points in 51 games.
