Weyburn Red Wings defenceman Tyler Teasdale has committed to playing for Western University of USports for the 2024-25 Ontario University Athletics Campaign.
Teasdale, 21, posted 40 points in 53 regular season contests as a 20-year-old for the Wings this past season and added three assists in Weyburn’s first-round series vs. the Humboldt Broncos.
A native of Winnipeg, MB, he played in five junior seasons, split between the Virden Oil Capitals and Winnipeg Blues of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League and the Blackfalds Bulldogs of the Alberta Junior Hockey League in 2022-23.
The Red Wings acquired Teasdale as part of a package in the off-season of 2023 in return for the Canadian Junior Hockey League rights to Ty Mason.
Teasdale’s terrific play atop the Weyburn defenceman depth chart earned him a spot at his hometown’s 2024 SJHL/MJHL Showcase event.
He becomes the second Red Wing to commit to an Ontario university after Weyburn captain Max Monette committed to the University of Waterloo earlier this summer.
