The final installment of transactions and player movement list of Canadians in the Minors.

It reflects all movements that I’ve confirmed during the 2020 off season, approximately from the beginning of October to end of December.

There are a couple of administrative moves included -- Sebastien Boucher and Jim Adduci -- but the rest are applicable to players.

Best wishes for the a Happy New Year and for all our sakes, I sure hope it’s a heck of a lot better than the stinker 2020 was.
