Yorkton’s Nolan Maier is now a part of the history books for the Saskatoon Blades.
The 20 year old became the winningest goalie in team history last night (Wed) after stopping 29 shots to lead his team a 3-2 win over the Winnipeg Ice in Regina.
The victory was his 86th of his WHL career and he says it’s pretty surreal to top the list.
“It’s pretty special that’s for sure, I don’t think I really thought about the feat when I was drafted here as a 15 year old, but to achieve that and to celebrate with my teammates was pretty cool,” Maier said to reporters after the game.
