Two other locals are Basha and Elick.
Probably watched every game Bash has played from timbits to Midget. See's the ice well. Head on a swivel since timbits, laser shot as well. Always one of the youngest being a later birthday. I think Grant Point (Brayden's dad) helped mentor/coach him a lot as well.

^Thanks - got Yak's name correctly shortly after posting!
We must have had former NHLer Ken Yaremchuk on the brain!
Love that Basha info! As noted in OP, so intrigued to follow his progress.
I may have watched the WHL draft live the year he got drafted with his Aunt alongside. We were a wee bit excited.
