Last year's captain, Tyler Penny has agreed to attend the University of Regina.
Penny, who is from Regina, says "it's always nice to play close to home especially when it's your first year, it would be nice to save a little bit of money because as many people know, if you move away from home, you tend to spend a lot of money. It will also be nice to play in front of friends and family."
Penny met with members of the U of R last week and he received a tour of the new facility of the Cougars and says he is really looking forward to the challenge. "It seemed like it was the right fit, it's a good school and it seems like they have a good hockey program too.”
Penny finished second on team scoring last season with the Wings. He spent a year and a half in a Weyburn jersey.
