The Merritt Centennials have traded forward Evan Benwell (00) to the Whitby Fury of the OJHL in exchange for future considerations.
The Ontario native returns to his home province for his last season of Junior A. With Merritt last season Benwell put up 9 goals and 9 assists in 28 games after being acquired from the Nanaimo Clippers.
The Centennials organization would like to thank Evan and his family for their commitment to the team and Nicola Valley during their tenure, and wish Evan the best in the future.
