Penticton Vees captain, Finlay Williams has been having a dominant ‘pod’ season with 5 goals, 12 assists and 17 totals points in 14 games. The NHL draft hopeful, Williams says he doesn’t feel any added pressure to his game despite the draft being less than 3 months away.

“It’s always been a dream of mine to play in the National Hockey League and get drafted. It just happens that this is the year that it’s all hopefully going to play out. I just go out there and play for my team, do whatever I can to win. I think with that, hopefully, scouts will see what my is all about.”

Despite this only being his first season with the Penticton Vees and him being one of the younger players on the team, Finlay Williams has already been named team captain, an honor that means a lot to him.

“Leadership is something that I take really seriously, I take pride in being a good leader and making people around me better.”

Williams’ leadership has helped lead the Penticton Vees to 13 wins from 15 games on the season, good enough for 27 points, first place in their pod and most points in the entire BCHL.
