KAMLOOPS — Kamloops Blazers General Manager Matt Bardsley has announced the signing of defenseman Logan Bairos to a standard WHL player agreement. 

Bairos was selected by the Blazers in the second round, 27th overall in the 2018 WHL Bantam Draft on May 3rd.

The Saskatoon, SK native and right shot defenseman, played this past season with the Saskatoon Stallions in the Saskatchewan Bantam AA league and posted 15 goals, 27 assists and 42 points in 31 games.

“We are excited that Logan has committed to the Kamloops Blazers organization,” commented Bardsley. “His skating ability, to join or lead the rush, and the skill to make quick plays makes him dangerous in transition. That same skating ability also enables him to defend against the rush. We feel he is the modern day defenseman and look forward to watching his game develop while in Kamloops.”

Bairos was among 23 prospects that participated in the annual Prospects Camp in Kamloops June 1st to 3rd.
