Bucks add defenceman to the herd

The Cranbrook Bucks have signed defenceman Tanner Fennell for the upcoming 2024/25 season.

Fennell is from Ontario and spent last season with the Kemptville 73’s of the CCHL, where he put up 29 points through 52 games.

“Tanner is a player that we were able to track over the course of last season and thought he made big strides as a player, allowing him to earn an NCAA commitment,” said head coach Ryan Donald.

“We are excited to add Tanner to our team this fall and continue to help develop his game for the NCAA.”

Fennell is committed to the University of Alaska Anchorage for his post-junior hockey career.
