Tyrone Sobry returns to Saskatoon following trade with Cougars

Saskatoon, Sask., – A familiar face is back with the Blue and Gold. The Saskatoon Blades have acquired 20-year-old defenceman Tyrone Sobry from the Prince George Cougars in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2028 Western Hockey League Prospects (WHL) Draft.

“We were informed on Friday that Tristan Doyle would be leaving for NCAA, so we immediately inquired about adding Tyrone back,” said Blades president and general manager Colin Priestner. “Our coaches felt he was exactly what our defensive core needed as a 20-year-old. He plays hard, simple hockey and is extremely well liked in our room. He will be a strong shutdown presence for us this year.”

The 6-foot-2 blueliner was acquired by the Blades on October 14, 2025 in a trade with the Prince Albert Raiders. Sobry recorded three goals, four assists, and 20 penalty minutes in 29 games with Saskatoon last season. The left-handed blueliner was acquired by the Cougars at last year’s trade deadline, where scored one goal and three assists in 28 games. Sobry added a shorthanded goal, an assist, and a +1 rating in 12 playoff games with Prince George last spring. In 144 career WHL games, the Saskatoon native has seven goals and 14 assists for 21 points.

“It’s good to be home,” said Sobry. “I can’t wait to be back in the Blue and Gold.”
