The Truro Bearcats have swung a trade with the Valley Wildcats, acquiring forward prospect, Brody Dawson and a 2027 3rd Round Draft Pick in exchange for Kevin Walker and Micah Tucker.
Dawson, 17, is a product of Sydney, NS but spent the past season in Edmonton with the heralded Northern Alberta Xtreme program, producing at over a point per game clip. Prior to that, Brody played his rookie U18 season in the NSU18MHL with the Sydney Rush, tallying 25 points and gaining valuable experience in the Telus Cup that was hosted by the Rush.
Walker has spent 2 of the past 3 seasons in Truro with a QMJHL season in Charlottetown in between. He played in 104 total games with the Bearcats producing 27 points in that time and being a reliable player in the middle of the lineup, excelling on the penalty kill. Tucker, a Newfoundland native has spent the past 3 seasons with the Pinnacle Growlers in the NLU18MHL and was a Truro draft pick in 2024.
We wish Kevin and Micah all the best in the Valley and would like to welcome Brody and his family to the Truro Bearcats organization.
