Beniuk joins Ryder Schnitzler and Landon Horiachka as the 3rd committed player to the Wolverines from the Sherwood Park Kings program this off-season.
“Kaiden made an impression as a younger player at our main camp last season where we offered him a chance to affiliate. This allowed him to be around our team at different points of the season, his work ethic and positive attitude is something that really stood out to me.” said Wolverines Head Coach and GM, Shawn Martin.
“This is something I have worked toward my whole life. Joining an organization with this kind of tradition, success and community is an opportunity I do not take lightly. I will do everything to earn my spot, learn from the veterans and prove that I belong in a Wolverine jersey.“ Stated Beniuk.
The Whitecourt Wolverines and their fans want to welcome Kaiden and his family to the hockey club. Any questions can be directed to Head Coach/GM Shawn Martin.
