The Charlottetown Islanders prospect, Kenzie Wagner, played a vital role in leading the Halifax McDonald’s U18 team to victory in the NSU18 AAA championship. Wagner, 17, stands at 6 feet tall, weighing 185 lbs, and was selected 153rd overall by the Islanders. He showcased his leadership skills as the captain of both the Halifax Macs and the Halifax Wolverines U15 team. With 16 points in 34 regular season games and additional contributions in the playoffs, Wagner has demonstrated readiness for the QMJHL level. He looks up to Dylan MacKinnon from the Halifax Mooseheads as a role model and aims to model parts of his game after the defenseman.
