Taking Note ...with Gregg Drinnan

The Kelowna Rockets are exploring the possibility of adding C Brock Trotter to their roster. Trotter, a 20-year-old from Brandon, led the Denver University Pioneers in scoring last season and was No. 1 again this season until apparently leaving the team prior to last weekend.

There are rumours that he will return to the USHL’s Lincoln Stars, where he played prior to heading for Denver... Trotter had 31 points this season; he had 76 points in 69 career games with the Pioneers.

Trotter presently is on Kelowna’s college list and Rockets’ president/general manager Bruce Hamilton said Wednesday night that “we are looking into it with the league.” Of course, Kelowna has three 20-year-olds on its roster – LW James McEwan (the injured team captain), RW Brady Leavold and G Kris Westblom. The Rockets, however, have a ways to go before they have to decide whether to make a move. Hamilton simply is exploring his options...
