Robertson won gold at the 2019 OHL Gold Cup with Team GTHL Blue.

“It’s always been my goal to play in the OHL, and I’m honoured to be a member of the Peterborough Petes,” commented Robertson. “I think I can bring a lot of skill and grit to the team, and I can’t wait to get started.”

“We’re very excited to have Tucker join our team,” added Oke. “He made a great impression at Training Camp last week, and we’re happy that he’s chosen to commit to the Petes and to play in the Ontario Hockey League.”

Trolley, a 5’11”, 160lbs 2001-born centre, attended 2019 Petes Training Camp as a free agent.
