The Grande Prairie Storm are proud to announce the signing of 2007 Forward Roghan Walker. The 6’4”, 205lb Beaverlodge product has played in the Grande Prairie Minor Hockey system since 2018. In 2022, Roghan was selected by the Lethbridge Hurricanes in the WHL Bantam Draft. Last season, Roghan suited up for the Grande Prairie Storm U18AAA team, where in 36 games, he scored 11 goals and notched 8 assists to go along with 51 penalty minutes. Roghan also suited up for the Junior A Storm for one regular season game and 3 playoff games, recording 1 assist and 2 penalty minutes. Welcome to the Storm, Roghan & Walker Family!
GM Mark Bomersback had this to say in regards to the Walker signing.” Very excited to add Roghan to our roster for this season. He’s a player we know well and obviously a player coach Schmidt knows really well, having coached him in the past. He did a great job for us last year when we called him up. He competes hard , plays physical , has the skill and hockey sense to make plays. He’s a big, strong young man that’s going to be hard to stop / move off pucks. He comes from a great family and we know that he’s going to come in here, work hard everyday and be a great teammate.
Roghan had this to say about joining the Storm. ”The opportunity to be a part of the Stormorganization is a huge honour. I’m really looking forward to getting things started.”
Storm Fans can see Roghan and the rest of the Storm roster at the first home exhibition game on August 27th @7:00pm vs the Whitecourt Wolverines.
