Hurricanes Re-Assign Goalie Jonny Hogue

The Lethbridge Hurricanes announced Friday they have re-assigned Goalie Jonny Hogue to the Alberta Junior Hockey League.

Hogue was competing for the backup goalie spot with Christopher Tai but will now head to the Drumheller Dragons. The 17-year old from Lethbridge played in the Hurricanes home opener on September 20th and stopped 32 of the shots he faced in a 6-1 loss to the Medicine Hat Tigers. Last season with the Lethbridge Pronghorns Midget AAA, Hogue posted a 3.81 GAA and a .904 Save Percentage. Hogue was drafted by the Hurricanes in the 8th round (158th overall) in the 2011 Bantam Draft.

Upcoming Games:

On Saturday, October 19th, the Lethbridge Hurricanes welcome the Saskatoon Blades to town. It’s “Social Media Night” so be sure and tweet us (@WHLHurricanes) your photos during the game and it may end up on the video scoreboard.

On Tuesday, October 22nd, the Hurricanes welcome the defending WHL Champion Portland Winterhawks to town. It is their one and only visit to the ENMAX Centre this season and we will be recognizing October as Breast Cancer Awareness month by painting the rink PINK! We’ll also have a toonie toss with proceeds going to the Canadian Cancer Society.
