At this time, he remains in Waterloo, but the Waywayseecappo Wolverines are hoping that changes.

The organization has acquired Hayden Lacquette in a three-team deal that included the Portage Terriers and Neepawa Titans

Waywayseecappo sent forwards Keenan Skrupa and Dawson Andries to Neepawa in exchange for Parker Korman, who was then dealt to Portage along with future considerations for Lacquette, who is coming off an all-star season with Portage.

Lacquette led the MJHL among defenceman with 54 points last season and he then had three points in five games at the Centennial Cup. Hayden played one preseason game in the United States Hockey League this year with the Waterloo Black Hawks, a 4-2 loss against the Farco Force on September 8.

He did not play in the team's last two preseason games which mean his return to Manitoba could happen sooner rather than later. The Wolverines open their season at the Arena Complex on September 22 when they battle the Titans.
