Zelanka is Heading to St. Cloud

            The Jets AAA defensemen Kyle Zelanka is heading to St. Cloud, MN in August to represent the NY District Select 15 Team.  Kyle, who is 5’10 and weighs 155lbs, has been playing for the Jets AAA Team for several years and played for the NJ Avalanche Bantam Major team last year.

            Last year, Zelanka played a very important role on the blue line for the Jets, as they competed in several tournaments.  Such tournaments were the Stockholm Cup in Sweden, The Warrior Classic in Montreal and the Hub Cup Tournament in Bridgewater, MA.  “Kyle has been working extremely hard over the last four years to improve his game.  He has been training on and off the ice and is reaping the reward of all that work. I am very proud of him and I look forward to working with him again in the near future.” Say’s Head Coach of the Jets Shawn Ray.

            Kyle will be in the Jets uniform again in June as he prepares for the Hub Cup Tournament.  Next year, Kyle will be playing on a Jr. B Team in the Empire Jr. Hockey League where he will be stepping up from bantams to Jr’s.  “I am very confident that he will be ready to play.  He came from the Avalanche program, where they have very good coaches and a great program.”  Ads Shawn
