Vernon, BC: The Vernon Vipers have acquired the Junior A playing rights to 19 year old defenceman Hunter Donohoe from the Chilliwack Chiefs in exchange for future considerations.
The South Surrey product has spent the last two seasons with the Red Deer Rebels of the WHL and spent parts of this season with the Seattle Thunderbirds.
“Hunter is a veteran defenceman who adds size and stability to our blue line,” says Head Coach and GM of the Vipers Jason McKee. “He’ll add leadership and depth to the defence core which is already a big strength of our hockey club.”
Hunter will join his new team this weekend in Langley when the Vipers take on the Rivermen.
