North Stars add 5 to roster at SJHL bantam draft
The Battlefords North Stars drafted five new players to its organization on Friday morning at the annual Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League draft, choosing three forwards, one defenceman, and one goaltender.
Joining the organization are forward Steven Kesslering, goaltender Carter Serhyenko, defenceman Walter Somers, forward Adam Kydd, and forward Kaleb Brunet.
The defending SJHL champs didn’t have a first or second-round pick, but that doesn’t mean they weren’t happy with their picks.
“I think we did pretty well,” said North Stars scout Wylie Riendau. “Obviously it’s pretty tough when you don’t get a pick until the third round but I think we got some good players and I think players that will be able to fit into our style of play in the future.”
