Player Bio A native of Carberry, MB, Bjarnason went undrafted in the WHL, likely due to his small stature on draft day… Measured in at 6’3” at Wheat Kings training camp… Spent last season at the RINK Hockey Academy, appearing in just two games of the shortened season. Bjarnason finished the year with a 2.01 GAA and a .914 SVP.
