The Silverbacks have made a trade with the Battleford North Stars of the SJHL for 20-year-old forward Matt Saharchuk in exchange for Dustin Gorgi and future considerations. Saharchuk is a big 6-2, left shot centreman who can also play the wing. He is a very versatile forward who will help bolster the ’Backs offence this year. Last season, he was the leading scorer for the North Stars with 36 points. Saharchuk spent time with the ’Backs in 2012 as an affiliate player.
