Caps Acquire Ayre in One-For-One Trade With Langley
Duncan, BC – The Cowichan Valley Capitals have acquired forward Trevor Ayre (98) from the Langley Rivermen, the team announced today.
Ayre is in his second BCHL season; he’s totaled three goals and six points in 16 games this season. In his BCHL career to date, the Surrey, BC native has five goals, 16 points and 23 penalty minutes in 66 games. Ayre spent two seasons with the Valley West Hawks in the BC Major Midget League (BCMML) from 2013-2015 prior to beginning his Jr. A career. In 80 games with the Hawks, Ayre posted 25 goals, 73 points and 68 penalty minutes, including 20 goals and 55 points in 40 games during the 2014-15 campaign.
Going the other way in this trade from the Capitals is forward Darren Hards (98), who had two goals and three points in 13 games with the Caps this season. Cowichan originally acquired Hards from the Surrey Eagles in June; the Prince George, BC native Hards had four goals and eight points as a BCHL rookie with the Eagles last season.
The Capitals welcome Ayre to the Cowichan Valley, and wish Hards the best moving forward in his playing career.
The Caps next home game is Friday, November 4 against the Vernon Vipers at 7:00 pm at the Island Savings Centre.
