The Truro Bearcats are thrilled to announce the signing of 2008-born forward Caylen Blake for the 2026-27 season.

The 18 year old from Corner Brook, Newfoundland comes to the Bearcats with already 120 games of QMJHL over the past two seasons with the Halifax Mooseheads.

The Mooseheads originally took Blake 34th overall in the 2024 QMJHL Draft and he stepped into the lineup as a 16 year old, appearing in 62 games, tallying 9 goals and 10 assists for 19 points.

He upped his production last season in Halifax, appearing in 58 games, putting up 12 goals and 15 assists for 27 points.

One of the top 2008 born players out of his province, Blake played U18 as an underager with the Western Kings and was also the lone underager to play for Newfoundland and Labrador at the 2023 Canada Games in PEI.

Caylen is a highly skilled and creative forward that we’re looking forward to add to an already deep group.

He will wear #55 with the Bearcats.

Welcome to Truro, Caylen!

SIGNED 📝

The Truro Bearcats are very pleased to announce the signing of 2008-born defenceman Zach Gill for the 2026-27 MHL season.

The 18 year old from Moncton has spent the past 2 seasons with the prestigious Salisbury School in Salisbury, Connecticut where he served as captain this past season. Zach put up 6 goals and 21 assists for 27 points and logged over 20 minutes a night as he helped the Crimson Knights to the NEPSAC Elite 8, which crowns the best of the best in New England Prep.

Prior to his time in Salisbury, Zach spent his rookie U18 season with the Moncton Flyers where he had a great first year leading to the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada selecting him in the 5th round of the 2024 QMJHL Draft.

Gill is one of the premier 2008-born defencemen in the maritimes and we’re very excited he chose Truro as the next step in his development.

Welcome to Truro, Zach!

TRADE 🚨

The Truro Bearcats have acquired forward James Martin from the Miramichi Timberwolves in exchange for an 8th round pick in the 2028 MHL Draft.

The 20 year old from Halifax split last season between Summerside and Miramichi, appearing in 30 games tallying 3 goals and 9 assists for 12 points as well as 84 penalty minutes.

Martin is a rugged, old school, physical forward who brings a two-way presence to his game. He appeared in all 4 Bearcat preseason games, putting up 1 assist and 17 penalty minutes.

Welcome officially to Truro, James!
