Prince Albert product a potential late round pick in next weekend’s NHL Draft
The shortened 2020-21 season was an interesting one for the Portland Winterhawks.
While they were the only team in the U.S. Division that wasn’t affected by COVID-19 rescheduling and able to play all 24 games, the team was without blueliner Clay Hanus and forwards Cross Hanas, Jack O’Brien and James Stefan for most of the campaign as they were loaned out to the USHL’s Lincoln Stars before the WHL resumed play.
Their absences allowed some of the team’s younger talent to take on a bigger role in the lineup, with one of those players being forward Gabe Klassen of Prince Albert.
