The Swan Valley Stampeders have acquired 1999 left shot forward Leyson Colman from the Flin Flon Bombers of the SJHL for future considerations.
 “The 6’3′ 200 lbs native of Lac La Biche, Alberta is a strong skating, hard nosed player,” said Head Coach and General Manager Barry Wolff. “We wanted to add some more players that are hard to play against with high end compete and play with fire.”
We want to welcome Leyson and his family to the Stampeder Organization. Coleman will wear number 22 for your Stampeders.
