According to Steve Bermel from IL Indoor, the Buffalo Bandits and Edmonton Rush have made a trade. According to the report, Jeremy Thompson will be shipped to Edmonton with right handed shooter Aaron Wilson joining the Bandits.
Last season Thompson was almost traded to Edmonton in a trade with Paul Rabil that fell apart. Now, it seems the Rush are still getting the player they were looking for.
Meanwhile, Wilson had one of his worst seasons last year at 31 points. His career high was 89 with the Minnesota Swarm in 2010 and in 2011 he put up 57. His 31 points were his lowest since he came into the National Lacrosse League.
The Bandits have had trouble signing their right handed shooting star Luke Wiles to a deal, as reported last week, so this move could have relation to that.
Also going to the Bandits from the Rush is a second round draft pick. Stay tuned for more details as they come.
