Former Wheat Kings captain Craig named Head Coach of NHL’s Golden Knights -
Las Vegas, Nevada – Former Brandon Wheat Kings captain Ryan Craig has been named the fifth Head Coach in the franchise history of the Vegas Golden Knights. The Golden Knights announced the promotion of Craig on Wednesday. The 44-year-old native of Abbotsford, B.C., has spent the past three seasons as Head Coach of the AHL’s Henderson Silver Knights.

During his NHL Draft season, the 6-foot-2, 212-pound forward tallied 64 points (29G-35A) in 52 games.

After being drafted, Craig return to the WHL for his second season as captain of the Wheat Kings and he put up career numbers – 74 points (42G-32A) in 60

2026 season review Alex Wennberg: Doing the little things right -
When the San Jose Sharks signed Alex Wennberg on the first day of free agency in 2024, the team was hoping the then-29-year-old center might be able to help usher in a new era of Sharks hockey. It honestly could not have gone any better. What the Sharks got out of Wennberg in these last two years has been a leader on and off the ice. The forward has shown young players like Macklin Celebrini, Will Smith and Collin Graf how to play the right way. He and his family have been pillars in the San Jose community, and they have offered a second home to young Shark William Eklund in a sport that can probably feel isolating at times. Wennberg’s addition to the roster has been invaluable, which is likely why General Manager Mike Grier made it a priority to re-sign the forward in the middle of this season. Wennberg’s 2025-26 production Wennberg has rewarded the Sharks with plenty of goals to celebrate, setting a career mark.
