The Prince George Spruce Kings are pleased to announce the acquisition of 19 year old goaltender Stefan Wornig from The Powell River Kings.
The 6’6” 190 pound Wornig is from Surrey, B.C. and was acquired by The Spruce Kings as the future considerations portion of the January 10th trade between Prince George and Powell River that sent 20 year old defenseman Adam Brubacher to Powell River.
Last season with Powell River Stefan had 8 wins, 12 losses with 2 shutouts and posted a 3.05 goals against average and a .914 save percentage in 21 games played.
Stefan attended The Team Canada West tryout camp in both 2014 and 2015. Team Canada West participates in The World Junior A Challenge every December.
“We are excited to add Stefan to our organization. He is a big, technically strong goaltender who will help solidify that position for us. Goaltending at our level and in our league is extremely important. Having two solid goaltenders on the roster is going to give us a better opportunity to win hockey games. Stefan has also been in our league for a couple of seasons now so he will also be leaned upon to provide leadership on and off the ice” said Spruce Kings General Manager Mike Hawes.
