Really like this. Erickson was one of the better Cents in the games we've seen recently. He's scored 10 goals this season. That would tie him for second in goalscoring on the Vipers this year.

I really like this move. The Vipers bring in a veteran 20 yr old that is now tied in team goals with Reagan Milburn and is now fourth in team scoring with twenty points. Merritt was here on Saturday and I thought Erickson was the Cents best player. The Vipers have improved and shown some improvement the past month or so and been playing their best hockey of the season.

Yes, I agree, Erickson is a very good acquisition. He was certainly noticeable last game here, probably the best Merritt forward. Finally a good trade but what is going the other way? Cash? Or is there one of our good young players going there at year end? Time will tell.

Some skills and size and experiance. Just what the vipers need. He was the best Cent player last weekend in Vernon.
