Mark Ferner has trimmed his roster to the final 23 but he’s not quite ready to make a serious assessment of his Vernon Vipers.

Ferner cut down to eight defencemen and 13 forwards after Saturday night’s 3-2 win before 1,200 fans at Kal Tire Place. He had last week named Aidan Porter and Aidan Hosein as his goaltenders.

Brendan Kim, 18, of Burnaby, Trey Taylor, 16, of Abbotsford and 16-year-old Nicholas Ardanaz of Surrey join veterans Watson, Andres, Michael Young, Jack Judson and Austin Chorney on the back end.

Vernon minor hockey grad Nick Cherkowski, who turns 18 in October, cracked the roster along with nine returning vets, summer commits Nick Wildgoose, Teddy Wooding, and Logan Cash, and late signing Ben Helgeson.

Niko Karamanis was eligible to return to the Vipers but decided to play for Williams College this year.

Either Trey Taylor or Nic Ardanaz will be sent down once all the D are healthy. Ferner might need to go find a trade partner for the 7th D cause it won't be good for the 02's development to be the 7th D. Once all the D are healthy I would send both 02's down and trade for another forward and the 7th D-man.

Nicholas Ardanaz is from Tsawwassen.

I spoke with him on Saturday night . Had he not made the final roster ( congrats , Nick ! ) , he likely would have returned to South Delta Secondary ( Tsawwassen ) .
