The Smoke Eaters have acquired 96 Defenceman, Carter Cochrane and 96 Forward Luke Santerno, two 20 year old players from the Cowichan Valley Capitals in exchange for 97 Forward, Max Newton and 98 Defenceman, Nii Noi Tetteh.
Assistant Coach, Curtis Toneff, is excited to bring in two veterans like Luke and Carter. “Carter is an offensive D-man who hails from Kamploops BC and is a veteran of over 100 games of junior hockey split between the WHL and the BCHL. He was also a member of the BCHL’s all rookie team and a second team All Star in the 2013/14 season.”
“Luke is a big, rangy cetreman and good on draws. He makes smart plays all over the ice. His career started with the 100-Mile House Wranglers of the KIJHL in their inagural season, before moving on to play the last two seasons with the Cowichan Valley Capitals. He is from Smithers, BC.”
The Smoke Eater organization welcome Luke and Carter to the Smoke Eater family.
We would like to thank Max and Nii Noi for there dedication to the Smoke Eater organization. We know that Max will leave his mark in the BCHL and know that Nii Noi will answer the bell when things get tough. We wish both players success in Cowichan Valley.
