Lethbridge, AB – <\/strong>The Lethbridge Hurricanes Hockey Club have announced the signing of 2007-born forward Jake Stuart Western Hockey League Scholarship and Development Agreements.<\/p>\n

\u201cA couple of years ago I didn\u2019t think it would have been possible to play in the WHL, but with the [NCAA] rule changes, I thought the opportunity was really good for me and I\u2019m super excited for next year,\u201d said Stuart. \u201cLast year, honestly, I didn\u2019t have the year I wanted to have and I think I need one more year of Junior. I\u2019m super excited for training camp, and I just can\u2019t wait to get started and I\u2019m excited to join the Hurricanes; it\u2019s going to be a very exciting season.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stuart, 19, was acquired by the Hurricanes from the Brandon Wheat Kings in May in a three-team trade. He was \u00a0originally selected second overall by the Wheat Kings in the 2022 WHL US Priority Draft. The Manhatten Beach, California, product has split the 2025-2026 season with the Muskegon Lumberjacks and Sioux Falls Stampede in the United States Hockey League where he collected 16 points (6g-10a) along with 31 penalty minutes in 51 regular season games. He has also tallied one assist in 10 post-season games helping the Stampede capture the USHL Clark Cup Championship. Jake has a commitment to the University of Denver.<\/p>\n

\u201cJake is a player we’re excited to welcome to our organization. He’s a talented player with a strong two-way game, excellent character, and significant upside,\u201d said Hurricanes Interim General Manager Barclay Parneta. \u201cHe also brings valuable experience from a championship program in Sioux Falls, where he learned what it takes to compete and win a championship. We’re pleased that Jake has chosen to continue his development with the Hurricanes, and the opportunity to see him play alongside his brother Logan makes this an especially exciting addition for our organization.”<\/p>\n

The 5\u20199, 165-pound forward previously spent two seasons with the US National Team Development Program where he appeared in a combined 132 regular season games collecting 42 points (24g-18a) along with 46 penalty minutes with the NTDP U17 and U18 programs. Last year, Stuart amassed 31 points (17g-14a) along with 36 penalty minutes in 67 regular season games at the U18 level while also recording four penalty minutes with the USNTDP team in the inaugural CHL-USA Prospects Challenge where he appeared in two games. Before his time with the USNTDP, he spent three seasons in the Los Angeles Jr. Kings 15U and 14U programs. In his draft year, Stuart collected an impressive 90 points (50g-40a) along with 36 penalty minutes in 71 regular season games with the Jr. Kings 14U team.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really excited to be able to go play with my brother [Logan] and [Dayne] Beuker, it\u2019s going to be pretty cool, the last time that we played a full season together, I was 12. Joining my brother, not a lot of people get to do, and I think this is the best option for me and it was a no brainer [to sign],\u201d added Stuart. \u201cMy parents, especially my mom, are really excited to be able to come see us in the same spot, and it\u2019s really cool to be able to play in the same league as my Dad did.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jake is the older brother of Hurricanes forward and Washington Capitals draft pick Logan Stuart, who signed with the club in June. He is also the son of former WHL and NHL defenceman Brad Stuart, who also spent parts of four seasons in the WHL with the Regina Pats and Calgary Hitmen before spending 18 seasons in the NHL with the San Jose Sharks, Boston Bruins, Calgary Flames, Los Angeles Kings, Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think next year, I want to be a really consistent player who can be reliable. I\u2019m a really good two-way forward, I take pride on the defensive side of the ice, but I can also contribute offensively. I\u2019m not the biggest guy, but I like to to be really physical and do what I can in that aspect,\u201d said Stuart.<\/p>\n

It is with profound sadness that the Lethbridge Hurricanes announce the passing of former Governor, President and member of the Board of Directors, Herman Elfring, at the age of 76.<\/p>\n

Elfring spent over 23 seasons with the Hurricanes before retiring from his role following the 2016-2017 season. During his over two decades with the hockey club, Elfring served in many roles including four years as President of the Board of Directors from 1995 to 1999, a stretch of time which saw the Hurricanes capture their lone WHL Championship in 1997. He also spent 21 seasons as the club\u2019s Governor from 1994 until 2017. In his time with the Hurricanes, the team advanced to two WHL Finals (1997, 2008) along with the 2017 Eastern Conference Final. The Hurricanes have named their annual Community Relations Award after Elfring which is awarded to the player who best exemplifies a high commitment and contribution to the Lethbridge community.<\/p>\n

In 2017, Elfring received the WHL\u2019s Distinguished Service Award becoming the 22nd<\/sup> recipient of the Award. The WHL Distinguished Service Award is presented annually to individuals who have worked tirelessly behind the scenes on behalf of franchises and in doing so have made an extraordinary contribution to the Club and League levesl over an extended period of time. Additionally, in 2025, he became the eighth member to be inducted into the Builder’s Category of the Lethbridge Hurricanes Wall of Honour.<\/p>\n

The entire Lethbridge Hurricanes organization would like to extend its deepest condolences to Herman\u2019s wife Carla, his children, grandchildren, extended family and all of his friends on this tremendous loss.<\/p>\n

Lethbridge, AB – <\/strong>The Lethbridge Hurricanes Hockey Club have announced the signing of 2008-born forward Logan Stuart to a Western Hockey League Scholarship and Development Agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt means a lot to sign with the Hurricanes, and I couldn\u2019t be more excited,\u201d said Stuart. \u201cI believe coming to Lethbridge is going to be what will prepare me the best for college hockey and beyond. I can\u2019t wait to get things started.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stuart, 18, was originally selected by the Hurricanes in the second-round (36th<\/sup> overall) in the 2023 WHL US Priority Draft. The Manhatten Beach, California, product spent the 2025-2026 season with the US National Team Development Program skating in a combined 80 regular season games amassing 45 points (13g-32a) along with 16 penalty minutes. Stuart amassed 15 points (3g-12a) along with a plus-11 rating with the USNTDP U18 team in United States Hockey League competition. He represented the USA at the 2025 CHL-USA Prospects Challenge where he appeared in three games recording one assist in both Calgary and Lethbridge helping Team USA to their first Prospects Challenge Championship.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to welcome Logan Stuart and his family to the Hurricanes organization. He is a player we think very highly of, not only because of his ability on the ice, but also because of the character and maturity he brings to the group,\u201d said Hurricanes Interim General Manager Barclay Parneta. \u201cWe are honoured that he has entrusted us with the next stage of his development, and we look forward to supporting him as he pursues his goals. We believe he has all the qualities necessary to be a very important part of our team with immediate impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 5\u201910, 175-pound forward spent two seasons with the US National Development Program appearing in 169 regular season games at both the U17 and U18 levels, recording 90 points (29g-61a) along with 48 penalty minutes. Stuart is ranked 127th<\/sup> overall among North American skaters for the 2026 NHL Entry Draft by the National Hockey League Central Scouting Service. In his WHL draft year, he racked up 68 points (36g-32a) along with six penalty minutes in just 27 regular season games with the Los Angeles Jr. Kings 14U AAA team.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving a fresh start with a great organization; I\u2019m pumped,\u201d added Stuart. \u201cI\u2019m extremely excited to come to Lethbridge and start a new chapter in the WHL. The new opportunity, with new faces, is something I\u2019m really looking forward to, and I can\u2019t wait to meet everyone and get things going.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stuart is the son of former NHL defenceman Brad Stuart, who also spent parts of four seasons in the WHL with the Regina Pats and Calgary Hitmen. He is also the younger brother of Jake Stuart, whose rights were acquired by the Hurricanes from the Brandon Wheat Kings in May.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce again the credit belongs to our entire hockey staff for the relationships they have built and the work they put in every day to make our organization a destination for players.\u00a0Today’s announcement is another exciting one for the Hurricanes and the City of Lethbridge,\u201d added Parneta.<\/p>\n
