ESTEVAN - The Estevan Bruins have had made a significant addition to their line-up.
Carievale's Turner McMillen, who has spent parts of four seasons playing for the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League, has agreed to join the Bruins.
McMillen played his developmental hockey in the southeast, including time with the Estevan Minor Hockey Association's age-rep teams.
He put up six points in six games with the Estevan U18 AAA Bears in their first season in 2020-21 before joining the Rockets, putting up two goals and six assists in 16 games.
He had 24 goals and 44 assists in 156 games for the Rockets, including two goals and two assists in six games this season.
The Rockets announced on Wednesday they had "made the difficult decision" to release McMillen to get down to the maximum of three 20-year-olds.
"Thank you T-Mac for all of your hard work on the ice and for being a big part of the Rockets school visit program," the Rockets said in a post on their X account. "We wish you all the best moving forward."
The Bruins have also added 2005-born forward Ben Hill from the WHL's Edmonton Oil Kings.
