Jr Bruins Sign Former Vipers Goaltender Young:

Former Vernon Vipers goaltender Joe Young has signed with the EJHL Boston Junior Bruins.  No official press release was found but Young is listed on the Bruins roster-website.  Young was recruited by the Vipers this past off season starting this season as the Vipers backup goaltender to Austin Smith.  After playing in just two games going 0-1 with a 4.35 GAA Young was put on the trade block while the Vipers brought back last years backup goaltender Danny Todosychuk who was cut from the Vipers training camp and playing in the KIJHL.  No official word on if Young was traded or released by Vernon.  In five games with the Bruins Young is 4-1 with one shutout and a 2.07 GAA
