Last season’s captain of the Power Dodge Estevan Bruins is moving east this fall.
Jake Fletcher has committed to the Concordia Stingers to play USports men’s hockey next season.
Fletcher was the team’s captain and scored 23 goals and 39 assists last season in 52 regular season games with the Bruins, accumulating 59 penalty minutes as well. In the playoffs, Fletcher scored 11 goals and 10 assists for 21 points in 16 games on the Bruins’ run to game 7 of the Canalta Cup final.
Overall in three seasons with the Bruins, Fletcher scored 52 goals and 71 assists for 123 points in 149 regular season Bruins games, adding 12 goals and 18 assists for 30 points in 31 playoff games.
This makes Fletcher the fourth member of the Bruins to commit to hockey with a post-secondary school. Hayden Guilderson and Jake Tesarowski have committed to the University of Victoria and Kaelan Holt committed to Grant MacEwan University earlier this offseason.
Also, Estevan’s Kyle Salaway, who played three seasons with the Virden Oil Capitals, committed to Red Deer College this off-season.
