Hurricanes Select Kade Jensen In Round 5

The Lethbridge Hurricanes have selected defenceman Kade Jensen in the 5th round, 103rd overall in the WHL Bantam draft.  Jensen is from Calgary and played with the Calgary Broncos Bantam AAA team.

Prior to that, the Canes picked Centre Zachary Goberis in the 4th round of the WHL Bantam draft, 87th overall.

Back in Round 2, the Canes picked up Centre Cole Plotnikoff from Surrey, BC with their only selection in that round. Plotnikoff was taken 28th overall. Lethbridge did not have a 3rd round selection this year, so they made trade to acquire the 53rd overall pick in the third round and chose forward Colt Conrad from Manitoba.


Earlier today, the Hurricanes took Giorgio Estephan with the 4th overall selection. Estephan had 100 points in 32 games, including 43 goals and 57 assists with the Edmonton Southside Athletic Club this past year.

The Hurricanes made their second, first-round selection in the Draft. With the 18th pick overall, acquired from Moose Jaw in the Cam Braes trade, the Canes selected defenceman Thomas Lenchyshyn.
