And still more from Saturday . . .

Cleaning up after the trade deadline . . .
The Everett Silvertips reacquired D Mike Alexander, 19, from the Lethbridge Hurricanes for a 2009 fifth-round bantam draft pick. Alexander had been dealt to the Hurricanes earlier in the week.
The original deal had LW Kyle Beach, 18, and Alexander going to Lethbridge for D Alex Theriau, 16, LW Daniel Iwanski, 18, and a 2009 first-round bantam draft pick.
Now that trade has Beach and a 2009 fifth-round pick going to Lethbridge for Theriau, Iwanski and a 2009 first-rounder.
The Silvertips also announced that D Shayne Brown, who was acquired early in the season from the Medicine Hat Tigers, will undergo season-ending hip surgery. Brown, 19, played in only 11 games this season. (It’s interesting that D Tyler Kieffer, 19, who went the other way in that deal never did report to Medicine Hat. The WHL has yet to announce whether Medicine Hat received any other form of compensation.)
As well, Everett assigned F Jordan Mistelbacher, 18, to the MJHL’s Winnipeg Saints and G Shayne Barrie, 19, to the SJHL’s Estevan Bruins. Mistelbacher had six points in 26 games with Everett. Barrie was 10-10-3-0, 3.08, .905.

The Spokane Chiefs have assigned F Mike Betz, 16, to the junior B Sicamous Eagles of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League. The 12th overall pick in the 2007 bantam draft, he had played in 30 games for the Chiefs. . . . As well, F Anthony Bardaro, 16, has been assigned to the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles. He had one assist in six games with Spokane. . . . The Chiefs also assigned G Alex Wright, 18, to the BCHL’s Prince George Spruce Kings. He got into one game with the Chiefs while G Dustin Tokarski was with the Canadian national junior team.
------
The Chilliwack Bruins dealt F Oscar Moller, 19, to the Seattle Thunderbirds for the rights to F Ondrej Palat, 17, and a 2010 fourth-round bantam pick.
Moller spent the last two seasons with the Bruins but cracked the roster of the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings out of training camp this season. He played for Sweden at the World Junior Championship and reported back to Los Angeles with a sore shoulder. The Kings’ medical team discovered that he has a broken clavicle. The last word out of L.A. was that Moller, who has 13 points in 30 NHL games this season, is out until at least the NHL all-star break, which is scheduled for Jan. 25, at which time he will be re-examined.
If Moller plays for Seattle this season, the draft pick going to Chilliwack becomes a 2009 second-rounder.
Palat plays in Viktovice, Czech Republic.
Meanwhile, the Bruins have added F Mike Krgovich, 18, to their roster. He has been with the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles for whom he had 24 points in 32 games. Krgovich has WHL experience with the Red Deer Rebels, totaling seven points and 54 penalty minutes in 63 games last season. He is expected to play for the Bruins tonight against the visiting Kamloops Blazers.
The Bruins have assigned F Mike Small, 18, to the AJHL’s St. Albert Steel. He had one assist in 10 games with the Bruins.
-----
The Prince Albert Raiders have assigned LW Brent Martin, 16, to the Spruce Grove Regals of the Capital Junior Hockey League in Alberta. He is from Spruce Grove and likely will see some time with the AJHL’s Spruce Grove Saints. He was pointless in 14 games with the Raiders this season.
The Raiders acquired Martin from the Lethbridge Hurricanes a year ago at the trade deadline, along with F Robbie Ciolfi, for D Jeff May.
