While the Battlefords North Stars have yet to announce their new head coach and general manager for the 2017-18 season, they have added a forward to the roster in their quest to repeat as Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League champions.
The team announced Wednesday morning that they have acquired 19-year-old Tre Doyon from the Alberta Junior Hockey League's Lloydminster Bobcats in exchange for a player development fee.
The Wainwright, Alta. product made the jump to the Junior A ranks last season, where he had two goals and two assists in 47 games.
He also led the Bobcats in penalty minutes with 99.
Prior to playing in the AJHL, Doyon had eight points in 30 games for the Lloydminster Midget AAA Bobcats in the 2015-16 campaign that saw the team go on to play at the Telus Cup.
