Halifax 21^st Use Limited Picks to Bolster Roster

 

It was no secret this season that the Halifax 21^st attempted to make a run at the championship and fell short of their goal. In attempting to make this run they traded away the majority of their picks to pick up usable assets for this season. After falling short and losing some players to the VHL entry draft Halifax had to put their limited draft capital to try and quickly re-tool and continue to try and compete in the upcoming season.

 

With the 17^th overall selection the 21^st took Swiss left winger Gabriel Gutzwiler. The 6’3, 215 lbs. Gutzwiler brings a big frame to the wing for Halifax and should be a staple of their offensive game as he continues to progress in the training facility. His defensive style of game is well appreciated with Halifax management.

 

With the 28^th pick they took the American defenseman Dylan Carpenter. Carpenter bring a smooth skating two-way game to the table which could see him playing in Halifax’s top four right off the hop. While a bit small in size there is no doubt that he has the talent to be a competent VHLM defender.

Don't even mark the calendar for when they play Mexico City because they won't stand a chance anyway...
