Wiesblatt brothers return to Brooks with MJHL champion Portage Terriers
BROOKS, AB – The slogan of the 2019 National Junior ‘A’ Championship has been ‘All Roads Lead to Brooks,’ something the Wiesblatt brothers are more than familiar with.
Orca and Ocean Wiesblatt’s junior hockey careers separated the pair, but they’ve now been able to reunite for a shot at winning a national title in their former arena.
Both began their junior hockey careers at Centennial Regional Arena in Brooks, playing their rookie campaign in the 2016-17 season as teammates.
The brothers drifted apart the following season though, with Ocean traded to the BCHL’s Penticton Vees and Orca receiving a promotion to the WHL’s Calgary Hitmen.
