Cranbrook, BC – Jeff Chynoweth, General Manager for the Kootenay ICE Hockey Club announced today the club has selected 18-year-old Forward Arnaud Jacquemet in the first round (47th overall) of today’s 15th annual CHL Import Draft.
“It is very difficult to draft any European player as for the most part teams have not had the opportunity to watch these players over the course of the season. Arnaud comes highly recommended by Allan Walsh, a player agent who we have used several times in the past for the CHL Import Draft. We look forward to further evaluating Arnaud when he attends Training Camp in August and hopefully he will be a regular contributor to our club during the 2006-07 season,” continued Chynoweth.
