Bulls announce trade with Niagara

Press Release

BELLEVILLE, ON - Belleville Bulls Head Coach and General Manager George Burnett announced Friday morning that the club has dealt sophomore winger Mack Lemmon to the Niagara IceDogs in exchange for a third round draft pick in the 2015 OHL Priority Selection.

A native of Aurora, Lemmon played in 52 career games with Belleville. He's suited up in seven games this season.

"Mack is a quality young man who is deserving of a better opportunity than the one we can provide him at the present time," said Burnett. "We wish him all the best in Niagara."

Lemmon joins the IceDogs Saturday night in Sarnia while the Bulls prepare for tonight's game at the Powerade Centre in Brampton.

Niagara has started their season at 5-4-0-0 while the Bulls currently hold a 4-2-1-0 record.

Following the trade, the Bulls now carry 23 players on their roster, consisting of 14 forwards, seven defencemen and two goaltenders.
