Port Alberni, BC – The Alberni Valley Bulldogs announce that they have committed to 1998-born defenseman Max Daerendinger (dare-en-dinger) for the 2015/16 season.
Daerendinger, a product of the Vancouver Thunderbirds Minor Hockey Association and the BWC Academy, played in 6 regular season games as an affiliate with the Bulldogs in 2014/15. Daerendinger’s assistant coach this past season was former Bulldogs star forward and current team scout Josh Bonar.
Bulldogs fans got a chance to see Daerendinger during the team’s first of two 2015 Spring Identification Camps held in Port Alberni, BC, this past April 3-5, 2015. The team’s second of two camps is coming up in Osoyoos, BC, from May 1-3, 2015.
"I am very proud to play for such a great team in a supporting community,” said Daerendinger. “I look forward to becoming a member of the team for next season!"
Daerendinger comes from some pretty good hockey bloodlines, as his great uncle Alex Delvecchio played his entire 23-year NHL career with the Detroit Red Wings (11 seasons as the Red Wings’ captain).
Bulldogs fans can expect to hear more exciting news and announcements from the team in the coming months.
The Alberni Valley Bulldogs are holding their annual Spring Identification Camp in Osoyoos, BC, on May 1-3, 2015. Spaces are limited. Prospects can register online by visiting www.albernivalleybulldogs.ca.
