The team is likely to go through some changes over the next couple months. Here is a look at what is going to be happening with the player list over the next couple months.

May 4th - Annual WHL Bantam Draft. The club traditionally selects around 10 players in the annual draft. These players will be ineligible for the Chilliwack expansion draft and will be limited to 5 games of regular season action in the WHL.

June 1st - Chilliwack Expansion Draft. Due to the expansion agreement the league reached with Chilliwack, they will be allowed to take three Tri-City Americans players. The Americans will only be allowed to protect 12 of their eligible players. Players who will play their 15 and 16 year old seasons this fall are not eligible to be selected.

June 28th - CHL Import Draft - Teams take non North American players in this draft. Teams are allowed up to two selections. Since the Americans two current import players are 20 year olds they don't count against the two import limit until they report back in the fall. There is a very good chance the Americans will take two players in this draft.
