Meet Kamloops Blazers forward and Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Fraser Minten. Earlier this year, he made headlines after the Toronto Maple Leafs selected him 38th overall in the 2022 NHL Draft. He wasn’t a big-name prospect, but one fans began to keep a close eye on. “ outlier for sure in today’s day and age, but something I give him a lot of credit for,” said West Van Academy president Nathan Fischer, who worked with Minten and his family for three seasons. “I don’t think he used a cell phone in his first couple of years with us. He kept his focus on what he wanted to accomplish and not be distracted by meaningless activities.”As a testament to his desire to perfect his craft, Minten realizes that nothing in life is free, Fischer says.
Minten missed seven games at the start of the WHL season due to a wrist injury he sustained while he was in Toronto participating in the Leafs’ training camp. Minten suited up for a pre-season game against the Ottawa Senators, lining up with Alex Steeves, and Wayne Simmonds. He finished the night with 13:36 ice time and two shots on net.
