Ice Wolves select ten players in SJHL Draft
Nearly a dozen players in this year’s Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) Draft were selected by the La Ronge Ice Wolves.
A combination of ten forwards, defensemen and goaltenders were among those drafted, including three in the 2010 draft and seven in the 2009 draft.
With the fourth pick in the 2010 draft, La Ronge selected Liam Van Caeseele from the Sask East Oilers in the U15 AA league. Hailing from Churchbridge, the 5’10, 154 lbs forward finished fourth in team scoring this past season with 33 points (19G-14A) in 26 games and added another seven points (5G-2A) in seven playoff games.
One pick later at number five, the Ice Wolves traded up and selected Logan Wilm, son of former NHLer Clark Wilm. The SJHL draft broadcast described Logan as a physical player who loves to hit and “use his size to get it on the forecheck… a lot like his dad.” With the Saskatoon Stallions in U15 AA this season, Wilm tallied 44 points (17G-27A) in 29 games, adding five points (3G-2A) in five playoff contests.
