TESINK, MOST WANTED HEAD TO NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

Ryan Tesink’s hockey season will begin a little early – but without ice.

The Telegraph-Journal reported today that Saint John Sea Dogs first round pick Ryan Tesink will play on Saint John’s top ball hockey team, the “Most Wanted.” The men’s team will begin play next week in St. John’s, Newfoundland at the Canadian A Ball Hockey Championships.

Drafted by Saint John with the last pick of the first round of June’s Quebec Major Junior Hockey League Entry Draft, Tesink will be joined by his brother, Brad, on the team.

Brad played with the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles for one game last season. Prior to that, the elder Tesink played four full seasons in the QMJHL. After leaving the Eagles, he would join his brother with the Maritime Junior Hockey League’s Woodstock Slammers.

With the Slammers League last season, Ryan scored 10 goals and added 19 assists in 44 games played. In the post-season, he recorded four goals and six assists in 14 playoff games.

Not on Most Wanted’s roster, as stated by T-J, is former Dog Felix Schutz who is currently with the American Hockey League’s Portland Pirates.
