The Saskatoon Blades have made a deal heading into the opener of a five game home stand against Red Deer.

18 year old forward Micheal Farren is heading to Kelowna for a third round draft choice in 2020. GM Colin Priestner said Farren told him he was flying home to await a trade feeling unsatisfied with his role. Farren had 20 goals and 57 points in 133 career games as a Blade.

Friday’s game starts at 7:05 with the broadcast on 98-COOL starting at 6 o’clock.
