Ruopp, Murray named to World Under-17 Team West Roster
Regina – The Saskatchewan Hockey Association and Hockey Manitoba are proud to announce the members for Team West who will be competing in the Under 17 World Hockey Challenge in Timmins, Ontario from December 29, 2009 to January 4, 2010.
The announcement of the final roster, which includes 11 players from Saskatchewan and 11 players from Manitoba, concludes a lengthy selection process that has been going on in both provinces. Players first take part in regional camps. The top players from each region then compete against each other in a Spring Tournament, and from there, the top players attend a Summer Camp. Eleven (11) players are then chosen from each of the Manitoba and Saskatchewan Branches to form Team West. Team West will look to continue their strong showing at this event, and will contend for a medal.
The coaching staff is confident in this team’s abilities. Head Coach Mike Vandenberghe (Regina Beach, SK) feels we have another competative team. “We are looking to continue the high standard set by past teams, and we feel we have the right players to do just that” Krueger explained.
Representing Saskatchewan on this year’s Team West are the following players: Brent Benson, Tyler Borstmayer, Wilson Dumais, Todd Fiddler, Jesse Forsberg, Jordan Fransoo, Boston Leier, J.C. Lipon, Ryan Murray, Zach Rakochy and Harrison Ruopp.
Joining the Saskatchewan players will be the Manitoba contingent of: Zachery Franko, Rene Hunter, Austin Lewis, Jens Meilleur, Evan Morden, Colin Mospanchuk, Tyler Oswald, Chad Robinson, Michael Sofillas, Michael St. Croix and Mitchell Vanteeling.
Team West will see its first action in an exhibition game against the Czech Republic on Monday, December 28th. Tournament play begins Tuesday, December 29th versus Quebec.
This year's Team West will compete at the 2010 World Under-17 Challenge, December 29, 2009 to January 4, 2010 in Timmins, Ontario. The roster includes 11 players from Saskatchewan and 11 from Manitoba.

Injury benches Silvertips’
impressive rookie
|
Murray out several weeks with broken thumb
By Nick Patterson
Everett, Washington Herald Writer
Published: Wednesday, October 21, 2009
EVERETT — Ryan Murray had quite the start to the 2009-10 Western Hockey League season. However, the Everett Silvertips’ prized youngster is having his impressive rookie campaign put on hold.
The 16-year-old defenseman will be out four to six weeks after suffering a broken thumb during Saturday’s 5-4 victory at Kelowna.
Murray, a native of White City, Saskatchewan, had transitioned seamlessly into the WHL, despite turning 16 just three weeks ago. However, he suffered the injury when he was checked from behind into the boards Saturday. He underwent surgery to repair the break.

“It’s unfortunate for Ryan,” Everett coach Craig Hartsburg said. “He was off to a really good start. But he’ll be back. It’s unfortunate for him, he’s probably more disappointed than anybody.”
It’s unfortunate for the Tips, too. Murray, Everett’s first-round pick in the 2008 bantam draft, gave a glimpse of his abilities when thrust into the lineup against Tri-City in the first round of the playoffs last season at the age of 15, immediately becoming one of Everett’s top four defensemen.
However, no one could have anticipated just how big an impact Murray would have right from the beginning of his rookie season. From day one he was part of Everett’s top defensive pairing alongside Radko Gudas, logging major minutes in all situations. In Everett’s first eight games, he tallied nine assists and was an astounding plus-14, which going into Tuesday night’s games ranked him third in the WHL.
The injury benches Murray for of Everett’s swing through the Central Division. Alex Theriau likely will be asked to pick up the slack in Murray’s absence. |
