In a move that could significantly impact the playoff hopes of both teams, the Niagara IceDogs and the Owen Sound Attack have agreed to a one-for-one trade that sees two young defencemen swapped in a bid to strengthen their respective blue lines. The trade, which has been confirmed by the Canadian Hockey League, is the latest in a string of roster shuffles that have been taking place across the league as teams look to position themselves for a run at the championship. The IceDogs, who have been struggling to find consistency in their defensive play, are hoping that the addition of the Attack's young blueliner will be the spark they need to turn their season around. Meanwhile, the Attack will be looking to the IceDogs' defenceman to provide a boost to their own team's defensive depth.
