“Determination” is a good word to describe the young career of Brayden Yager so far. Yager began his WHL career with the Moose Jaw Warriors a year early at age 15 due to the pandemic and from there he took off. In his rookie season Yager set a new franchise record for 16-year-olds by tallying 34 goals through 63 regular season games, leading him to win CHL’s Rookie of the Year. The following season Yager was named assistant captain and would finish with 128 points in leading the Warriors to the playoffs, he would also win the Brad Hornung Memorial Trophy as WHL Most Sportsmanlike Player for the 2022-23 season. Yager’s success with the Warriors led him to be selected in the first round of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins.
