Lakers Announce Transactions

The Fort Frances Lakers would like to announce the following transactions:
  – trade of Nolan Ross to the Portage Terriers of the MJHL to finalize the previous trade of Nolan to the Lakers from Portage Terriers on Jan. 10, 2015.
  – the return and signing of defenceman Robbie Bonthron.  Robbie came along way with his game last season and we are happy to have Robbie return.  He is a bit of a late bloomer and under our guidance improved immensely for our team last season.  He skates well, improved his puck skills and has a dangerous shot from the point.  With added strength and being physical consistently we feel Robbie could round his game into one of the best in the SIJHL next season.
  – announce the signing of defenceman Isaiah Olschewske from the Richmond Generals of the USPHL.  Isaiah is an extremely skilled player who is a strong skater, has good offensive instincts and plays a physical game.  He had many opportunities from other Junior leagues but chose the Lakers for the opportunity we can give him.  We are excited to have Isaiah join our hockey club and look forward to seeing him in action in late August.
