“We are excited to add a goalie with the experience that Jared has,” said Head Coach and GM, Scott Barney. “He’s come highly recommended, and we believe we have solidified ourgoaltending tandem with Picklyk and Motew.”
Picklyk brings 40 games of WHL experience to the Broncos, where he compiled a 14-14-4 record. The 6’3 goaltender was drafted 148th overall by the Hurricanes in 2018.
