Storm drop puck on 26th AJHL season in Drayton Valley
The Grande Prairie Storm are set to kick off their 26th season in franchise history in Drayton Valley this weekend.
This season will mark the return of what is hoped to be a full season of junior hockey in Alberta, after the pandemic has altered the league’s schedule since March of 2020.
The Storm enter the season with just 11 returning players, including a new group of goaltenders.
While the Storm finished with a pre-season record of 1-4, Head Coach and General Manager Mike Vandekamp isn’t looking into those games too much.
