Spokane, Lethbridge dealing

Following Wednesday night’s games, the Spokane Chiefs announced that they have dealt F Dustin Donaghy, 20, to the Lethbridge Hurricanes for a 2010 sixth-round bantam draft pick. . . . Donaghy, who was part of the Chiefs’ 2008 Memorial Cup championship team, had one assist in 13 games this season. All told, he played in 123 games for the Chiefs. . . . Spokane has three 20-year-olds on its roster in D Brett Bartman, D Jared Spurgeon and F Ryan Letts. However, Spurgeon (shoulder) and Letts (ankle) have yet to play this season and are listed as week-to-week. . . . The deal leaves Lethbridge with Donaghy, F Carter Bancks and G Linden Rowat as its 20-year-olds. F Radim Valchar, 20, also is on the Lethbridge roster but the Hurricanes are trying to find a place for him to play. . . . Donaghy and Bancks were teammates with the junior B Kimberley Dynamiters in 2004-05. They were two of three 15-year-olds on that team. The third one was LW Drayson Bowman, who went on to a pretty decent career with the Chiefs.
