Born and raised in East Saint Paul, MB, Evan began his playing career out of the River East Minor Hockey Association before joining RINK Hockey Academy in its inaugural year. He later went onto play junior hockey for the Okotoks Oilers and the Steinbach Pistons. Following his 20-year-old season, Evan hung up his skates and pursued a Bachelor of Commerce out of the University of Manitoba’s Asper School of Business. Evan returned to RINK Hockey Academy for the 2024-2025 season as an assistant coach for the U18 Prep team. He is extremely excited to build on last season and help young hockey players reach their goals both on and off the ice.
