The GWMHL’s first expansion since 1999 is well underway, as the two new teams — the Clarington Coyotes and Hershey Bears — began making their Expansion Draft selections. The process is expected to take some time as teams update their protected lists with every selection.
Kicking things off, Hershey selected versatile forward C Chandler Stephenson from the Winnipeg Falcons. Stephenson joins a growing roster that already includes promising 2020 draftees like Carter Verhaeghe.
