Congrats Nick Baptiste!
The Sudbury Wolves 1st round selection, NICK BAPTISTE, captured his second world championships in less than a year when the 17-year-old Ottawa native won GOLD with TEAM CANADA at the IIHF WORLD U18 CHAMPIONSHIPS in Sochi, Russia.
BAPTISTE was a key contributor to the team’s success by recording two assists in a TEAM CANADA 3-2 victory over TEAM USA in the Gold Medal contest. BAPTISTE finished the tournament with 3 goals and 8 points to finish in second place in scoring on TEAM CANADA and 6th place overall in the tournament scoring. BAPTISTE has blossomed offensively since the mid-way mark of the season and has become a game-breaker with his offensive skills, speed and vision.
BAPTISTE won GOLD in Omsk, Russia back in August when the Sudbury Wolves won the WORLD JUNIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP with a 2-0 victory over TEAM USA represented by Waterloo of the USHL.
The Burgess Family, the Wolves organization and all Sudbury Wolves’ fans would like to extend sincere congratulations to NICK BAPTISTE and his family on his worldly accomplishments.
