The CIBC Wood Gundy Lumberjacks have bolstered their blueline. The Jacks acquired Zac Zakas from the Summerside Western Capitals for future considerations. Head Coach Terry Rhindress says the 19-year-old Zakas brings stability to a young defence.
"He's a steady, stay-at-home, puck moving defenseman, nothing flashy, he's not going to jump up and throw a lot of offense at you but he's going to settle things down on the blueline for us."
Zakas had two assists in nine games with Summerside this season. He'll get a chance to face his former team Friday night when the Jacks host the Capitals in Bridgewater.
