The Prince George Cougars have been watching Joshua Ravenbergen and they obviously like what they’ve seen.
The Cats announced Monday they’ve signed the 2006-born goaltender to a WHL Scholarship and Development Agreement.
The six-foot-four, 174-pound Ravensbergen had a standout season playing for the Vancouver Northwest U-18 triple-A Hawks in the B.C. Elite Hockey League. The native of North Vancouver posted a 15-2-3 record with a 2.1 goals-against average and two shutouts. He also won one of his two playoff games, compiling a 3.28 average.
The lefthanded netminder helped the U-17 Hawks win the BCEHL championship last year. He went 12-7 in the regular season and finished with a 6-1 record in the playoffs.
Ravensbergen attended the Cougars training camp last summer.
