Colts deal Stewart to Spirit in exchange for draft pick

Date:

The Barrie Colts last week traded forward Bode Stewart to the Saginaw Spirit in exchange for a fifth-round selection in the 2026 Ontario Hockey League Priority Selection.

Stewart, a native of Oakville, Ontario, was described by team as “bringing speed, playmaking ability, and competitiveness to the lineup,” and had established himself as “a dependable two-way forward.”

“We’d like to thank Bode for his time with the Colts,” said Marty Williamson, the Colt’s vice-president and general manager, in a statement.

“He was a great teammate, and we wish him nothing but the best with his opportunity in Saginaw.”
