Bandits Press Release – Sam Johnson Moved to Merritt


Brooks, Alberta, November 28, 2012 – The Brooks Bandits have traded forward Sam Johnson and future considerations to the Merritt Centennials of the BCHL for 1993 forward Brandon Bruce.


Head Coach/GM – Ryan Papaioannou “This was a difficult trade for us to make on a personal level as Sam is such a great person. He has been nothing but a positive influence in our dressing room over the last two years. This move will allow us to get stronger on the right wing and gives Sam an opportunity to join a strong team in the BCHL. We wish him all the best and thank his family for their support of the Bandits.”
