Warriors’ Wanner looking to take next step as veteran defenceman with WHL squad

Edmonton Oilers prospect is stronger and quicker heading into upcoming season after summer of preparation. Warriors’ Wanner is looking to take next step as veteran defenceman with WHL squad.

Max Wanner is a 19-year-old defenceman with the Warriors. He was at a training camp held at Prairie Hockey Academy. The camp was for getting into shape for the upcoming WHL season. Waner is also preparing for his second NHL training camps. He is hoping to make a name for himself. His last camp experience was against Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Edmonton Oilers drafted him in the seventh round in 2021 NHL Entry Draft. It was his first training with a professional team. WHDL season ended last month. They played 68 games. Their last game was a 68-game season against the Kamloops Aces.

5 Edmonton Oilers Who Must Improve Their Play This Season

Edmonton Oilers' centerman Leon Draisaitl spoke about expectations for his team recently and said that it's "Cup or bust" this season and I'd imagine this sentiment is shared among his teammates. Connor Brown was the big offseason addition, and because of salary cap constraints, they weren't able to add any other significant pieces. Because of…

Oilers #12 prospect Philip Kemp

This is the seventh appearance on the Cult of Hockey prospect rankings for defenceman Philip Kemp, eighth if one includes the "double summer" of 2020 when we more or less did this series twice. Finally after all that time, he has crawled into the top 15, indeed the top 12. In part that is due to the departures at the top of the list and a shortage…

The 2021 NHL Draft was the most unusual of the modern (since 1979) era. NHL teams were mostly flying blind in selecting players. Powerful leagues like the OHL didn't play due to the pandemic. Some of the best prospects who were eligible for the draft didn't get to play enough to develop or show their abilities. It was both a challenge and an…

Oilers Trade Deadline Plans Could Change if Desharnais Succeeds

It's been a long road to the NHL for Edmonton Oilers' defenceman Vincent Desharnais. He was passed over twice in the NHL Draft, and the Oilers finally took a shot on the 6-foot-6, 215-pound defender with the 183 pick in the 2016 Draft. Since then, the Laval, Quebec native, has spent four seasons in the American Hockey League (AHL) - with stints in…
