The Vernon Vipers Hockey Club is pleased to announce that 17 year old forward Dylan Walchuk, from McBride B.C., has committed to play for the Vipers this upcoming season. Walchuk spent last season playing for the Nelson Leafs of the KIJHL.

Walchuk comes to the Vipers organization after a very successful 2008-2009 season. During the regular season, he scored 29 goals and 36 assists for 65 points in 49 games played. For his efforts he was awarded KIJHL Rookie of the Year. He was also a very clutch performer in the playoffs in which he helped lead his team to a KIJHL championship. Dylan led the KIJHL playoffs in scoring; he scored 10 goals and 16 assists for 26 points.

Dylan is a strong two way center who works hard each and every time he is on the ice. He has drawn the attention of many NCAA scouts throughout the season and will be a huge part of the Vipers team next season.

The Vernon Vipers Hockey Club would like to welcome Dylan to their team. Any questions please contact the Vernon Vipers office at 250 542 6022.
