Lesko Signs With Bombers

1998 born Brandon Lesko commits to Flin Flon for the 2015-16 season.

The Flin Flon Bombers and Head Coach and General Manager Mike Reagan are pleased to announce that 1998 born forward Brandon Lesko (Hafford, SK) has committed to the club for the 2015-16 SJHL season.

Lesko played the last two seasons with the Battlefords Stars of the SMAAAHL where the 6’0, 180 pounder had a total of 80 points (30g, 50a) in 85 games including 54 points in 44 games last season. 

He helped guide his Stars to the SMHAAAHL final last season, coming just short of the title against the Regina Pat Canadians.

“We’re really excited about having a player with this type of caliber sign with us,” said Reagan.  “Brandon’s a great skater and has a great release and I have no doubt that he will be a great player in this league and become a scholarship player.”

A former draft pick of the WHL’s Calgary Hitmen, Lesko was acquired by the Bombers as part of the futures in the Cam Blair trade at the 2014 Trade Deadline.  He suited up in one game for the Bombers last season picking up a penalty.

“There’s only a handful of players that can play as a 17 year old,” commented Reagan, “let alone suit up as a 16 year old.”

The Flin Flon Bombers have traded 20 year old forward Austin Calladine to Kindersley for 20 year old defenseman Joel Webb,  and the rights to 19 year old forward Jesse Shynkurak who is currently playing with Moose Jaw of the WHL.

Head Coach and GM Mike Reagan had this to say after the trade was completed:

" I think this is a good deal for us. We need a no.1 power play type d-man in Joel Webb. We know he is a hard working kid, he is committed to the game and is very interested in obtaining a div 1 scholorship. We want guys that are motivated to play and also look at it as being able to get a guy in the Western league, who could fall back to us. We wish Austin Calladine all the best in Kindersley, but feel this is a good move heading forward for us."

Austin Calladine 37 points in 52 game( 17 goals and 22 assists) for Flin Flon

Joel Webb 25 points (3 goals and 22 assists) in 51 games for Kindersley

Jesse Shynkaruk 21 points(9 goals and 12 assists) in 63 games with Kamloops and Moose Jaw of the WHL.

The Bomber held their biggest Spring Camp to date, signed highly touted prospect Thomas, prepare for Bantam Draft.

It’s been a busy week for the Flin Flon Bombers staff.  Fresh off their biggest Spring Camp, in the midst of the SJHL AGM and on the eve of the first ever SJHL Bantam Draft, Head Coach and General Manager Mike Reagan is happy with the ways things are going.

“We are really happy with the Spring Camp,” commented Reagan from Nipawin, SK, host to the AGM and the Draft.

“We committed to 12 players out of camp, 11 of them have signed, and we’re looking forward to making some significant draft picks.”

The 12 players were the most commitments out of a spring camp in the Reagan era, one of those are a big splash, literally.

The Bombers signed 1998 born defenseman Cory Thomas (St. Brieux, SK).

The 6’5, 195 pound rearguard played with the Tisdale Trojans of the SMAAAHL the last two seasons compiling 20 points (3g, 17a) over 75 games, but is most regarded for his solid defensive play and being a big body, despite the fact that he just turned 17 in March.

“We’re really excited to sign Cory,” said Reagan.  “He had some interest from the WHL, but has also had some contact with some schools as well.  We were really committed to him playing with us as a 17 year old.”

Thomas suited up for one game last season with the Bombers, on the road against the La Ronge Ice Wolves. 

As previously stated, the Bombers are preparing to take part in the first SJHL Bantam Draft, being held tomorrow at 10 am.  Check back later in the day for full details of the draft.
