Welcome Back Frankie!

Sudbury Wolves captain Frank Corrado did all that he could do but it wasn’t enough for the selection committee of Team Canada to reward the Wolves’ captain with a spot on the 2013 TEAM CANADA World Junior team roster.

The Vancouver Canucks prospect scored two goals and was steady as he could be on the blueline, but, the Team Canada brain-trust opted to go with four 18-year-old defencemen instead of a more veteran defensive line-up as has been the case in the past.

“The Sudbury Wolves organization is very proud of Frankie as he represented himself, the Sudbury Wolves, the City of Greater Sudbury and the Ontario Hockey League extremely well at the Team Canada try-out camp” notes Wolves’ President Blaine Smith.  “We all welcome Frank back to Sudbury with open arms and can’t wait to see him back in our line-up this weekend.”

Wolves’ fans can show their appreciation by recognizing their captain on Friday night when the Wolves host the Plymouth Whalers Friday night at 7:35 p.m.
