The Vernon Vipers have placed forward Tanner Wishnowski, sidelined with a concussion, on a season-ending injured reserve list with BC Hockey. The hard-hitting former Kelowna Rocket is a 20-year-old. Each team is allowed a maximum of six overage players.

Very disappointing as I enjoyed watching him play. He was a "team first" type of player and worked hard every shift. With a concussion it is possibly the best decision as health is certainly more important than the game. He should have 3 - 4 years education credit at a Canadian University due to his time in the WHL. All the Best Tanner.
ReplyDeleteA huge loss for the Vipers! After missing most of the season, I wondered if Wishnowski would return. The Vipers didn't say much/very little, with most fans curious to know what was going on. I watch/follow the Kelowna Rockets and liked Wishnowski when he played with the Rockets, so I knew what kind of player the Snakes were getting. Wishnowski will be missed! These are character players, that help you win championships come playoffs. All the best in the future!
