Jayden Jubenvill is just one year removed from playing AAA hockey with the Parkland Rangers and now, he's making a significant impact at the next level as his junior career is well underway.
Jayden has suited up in 29 of the team's 30 games this season and he has four goals and 15 assists. Growing up in Gilbert Plains, Jubenvill often found himself inside Credit Union Place watching Kings games and now that he gets the chance to play for the team, it's a special feeling.
"It's really a dream come true for me," said Jubenvill. "It's a great feeling to finally wear the jersey and represent this organization."
As Dauphin prepares for a home-and-home against the Winkler Flyers starting on Friday night, Jubenvill is coming off a red-hot December. He scored twice and added three assists in just six games and thanks to his success, he was named the league's rookie of the month. Jubenvill scored in both games during the final weekend of 2021 against the Selkirk Steelers, scoring once in Selkirk and once the following night as well.
"It's a great award to win and it's nice to see all of my hard work paying off," said Jubenvill. "With that said, it wouldn't happen without my teammates and coaches pushing me every single day."
Your next chance to see Jayden in action is Friday night. However; do keep in mind, you must be a season ticket holder to gain entry into Credit Union Place and the first 250 will be allowed in.
