Adam Kierszenblat ready to bring expanded WHL coverage to The Hockey News

Hello everyone, and let me introduce myself. My name is Adam Kierszenblat, and I am excited to bring expanded coverage of the WHL to The Hockey News.

The goal is simple: create a go-to spot for WHL fans across the globe. This means interviews, rankings, and so much more from all 22 teams from the pre-season to the Memorial Cup. 

Check back regularly, as there will always be something new and exciting on the site. 

A little background about me: I have been a hockey fan for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Vancouver, I was in the building when the Vancouver Giants won the 2007 Memorial Cup and have been an avid supporter of the WHL ever since. 

Before the 2020 season, I was given my first writing job, covering the Vancouver Giants, where I was able to interview current players as well as members of the 2007 Memorial Cup. Fast forward a few seasons later, and I have had the opportunity to cover a U17 World Hockey Challenge, the CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game, and the Memorial Cup. During that time, I have also been part of the "THN on the 'Dub" podcast, which breaks down all the news and notes from the WHL. 

The WHL is a special league, and I feel honoured to have been given this opportunity. I hope you enjoy the coverage and are ready for what should be another exciting year in the WHL.
