PENTICTON, BC – The
Penticton Vees Jr. ‘A’ Hockey Club is pleased to announce forward Liam Finlay
(97) has committed for the 2014-15 season.
Vees Head Coach & GM
Fred Harbinson on Finlay’s commitment, “Liam’s hockey sense and skill level are
at an extremely high level; he has proven to us that he will be an excellent
junior ‘A’ player. He’s also a strong student, a good person and determined to
succeed, and it is these characteristics that solidified our desire to see him
full time in a Penticton Vees jersey next season.”
Finlay, 16, is currently
playing for the Okanagan Rockets of the BC Major Midget League (BCMML). The
Kelowna product leads the Rockets in scoring (as well as the entire league)
with 10 points in 4 games. In his rookie campaign last season, Finlay scored an
impressive 50 points in 40 games.
Finlay played two
exhibition games for the Vees this pre-season and will make his regular season
debut this Saturday night, as the Vees host the Alberni Valley
Bulldogs at 6pm at the South Okanagan Events Centre.
