PRINCE GEORGE — The Prince George Cougars have claimed a player off waivers.

The team has acquired 20-year-old Shaun Rios. Rios appeared in 18 games with the Wenatchee Wild this season, recording seven points (3G-4A). Last season, he had 47 points (21G-26A) in 42 games with Wenatchee.

“Shaun is a left-shot winger with a knack for scoring,” said Lamb. “We have an extra overage spot, and we think he’s going to fit in well with our group.”

Across his WHL career with Wenatchee and the Tri-City Americans, Rios has totaled 57 points in 69 games. Before joining the WHL, the San Jose, CA product starred with the Shattuck-St. Mary’s 18U program, where he posted 78 points (32G-46A) in 57 games. Rios stands 6’0” and 198 pounds.
